webMethods Wins ebizQ Buyers' Choice Award for Enterprise
Application Integration Technical Excellence, Flexibility,
Ease-of-Use and ROI Among Qualities Cited by End Users FAIRFAX,
Va., June 21 /PRNewswire/ -- webMethods Inc. (NASDAQ:WEBM), a
leading business integration and optimization software company,
today was named the ebizQ Buyers' Choice Award Winner for
Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). The award was presented
by ebizQ, a leading publisher of print and online publications
serving the business integration market, following competition that
evaluated the leading EAI vendors against specific business and IT
requirements that ebizQ audiences had previously identified of
greatest strategic importance to their companies. Based on the
voting of these registered end-users against a number of criteria,
including technical excellence, flexibility, ease-of-use and return
on investment (ROI), webMethods was recognized as the inaugural
winner of the award. "One of the key areas webMethods scored highly
on was ROI. In fact, this is an area of particular focus for them,"
said Beth Gold-Bernstein, vice president of strategic products and
services for ebizQ. "It is clear that companies cannot get value
from a system if it is never deployed. webMethods tracks the number
of implementations by their customers very closely as a key
corporate metric, and awards employee incentives based on
successful deployments. This focus is somewhat unique among
integration vendors, and is clearly translating into demonstrable
ROI for their customers." The award's recognition of webMethods'
strengths in helping customers achieve quantifiable ROI reinforces
earlier research that indicated these customers on average did so
in just ten months. One of the reasons that webMethods' customers
routinely enjoy such success is the speed and ease of implementing
the company's technology. webMethods further demonstrates its focus
on making its customers successful by documenting an average of two
projects that go into production somewhere around the world on any
given business day. "This award is a particular honor for
webMethods as it reflects the personal experiences of end-users
from the business integration community," said Deborah Rosen,
executive vice president, Worldwide Marketing, webMethods Inc. "One
of the most important findings of the ebizQ integration survey was
the critical role that ROI plays in both purchasing decisions and
overall satisfaction. Therefore, it was especially gratifying to
see users single us out and recognize the focus that we place on
customer success." On June 29th, at noon, EDT, ebizQ will be
hosting a webinar to present the formal results of the Buyers'
Choice Awards. Avnet, Inc., a webMethods customer, will be featured
along with Rich Chiarello, webMethods' executive vice president of
Worldwide Operations, who will be discussing how the company
partners with customers to determine ROI criteria and measurement
standards. For more information, please visit:
