GraphOn Corporation, (Nasdaq: GOJO), (http://www.GraphOn.com), today announced availability of GO-Global XP, their latest web enabling software for Windows applications. GO-Global XP provides faster than ever performance and the lowest ever bandwidth requirement to run full-featured Windows applications over the Internet, LANs, WANs, or dial-up connections on any PC, Mac, Java device or browser as though they were running locally.
MORGAN HILL, CA, USA – September 5, 2001 – GraphOn Corporation, (PRWEB) September 7, 2001 -Global XP, their latest web enabling software for Windows applications. GO-Global XP provides faster than ever performance and the lowest ever bandwidth requirement to run full-featured Windows applications over the Internet, LANs, WANs, or dial-up connections on any PC, Mac, Java device or browser as though they were running locally.
Like the entire GO-Global family of infrastructure software for instantly web enabling Windows, UNIX and Linux applications, GO-Global XP is a scalable, enterprise-class technology that leverages the power of the server to virtually eliminate any load on the desktop or display device. GraphOn's GO-Global XP replaces Bridges for Windows and is marketed worldwide to independent software vendors (ISVs) and enterprise customers.
"GraphOn is dedicated to helping companies and ISVs move through these challenging economic times by providing technology that lowers operation costs by leveraging the Internet to deliver familiar productivity applications unaltered to users across and beyond the enterprise," said GraphOn Executive Vice President, Robin Ford. "Our GO-Global software helps companies curtail unnecessary hardware upgrades, centralize their application management, and make the best use of their IT labor by eliminating tedious, unnecessary tasks like client-side installation."
By including GO-Global with their applications, ISVs no longer need to re-architect their software and can speed time to market with web applications that can be accessed using a native or a web browser Java applet solution for the widest assortment of client display devices and browsers. GraphOn provides independent software vendors with an OEM licensing and branding kit that lets ISVs apply their own brand to GraphOn's GO-Global XP to create an all-in-one-box web-enabled version of their existing 32-bit Windows applications.
"GraphOn's GO-Global software web enabled our Sys*Admiral enterprise job scheduling software virtually overnight," said Tidal Software Chief Technologist, Derek Evan. "Our customers typically are Fortune 500's that are running NT, Windows 2000, OS/390, numerous flavors of UNIX, SAP, PeopleSoft and Oracle applications, as well as network management tools like HP Openview and NetIQ. Using GraphOn's GO-Global helped us give our customers the most cost-effective way to interact with our job scheduling software. Now we can help them lower their operations costs by running Sys*Admiral job scheduling on their distributed systems in a heterogeneous computing environment over any connection, anywhere. We have already had tremendous success with several of our largest accounts and we expect GraphOn's web enabling technology to help us continue to grow our sales significantly."
"ISVs are concerned about the cost of re-engineering their Windows applications to make them web enabled," said Dan Kusnetzky, VP system software, IDC. "They are also concerned about application performance over low bandwidth connections and supporting many different client devices. Virtual User Interface Software, such as GraphOn's GO-Global XP, can make it possible for ISVs to obtain the results they want without re-engineering their applications. ISVs facing this challenge would be well advised to consider this software."
