BroadVision Releases Version 8.2 of Kona e-Platform

BroadVision Releases Version 8.2 of Kona e-Platform

Sixteen Years of Experience Provides Leading e-Business Technology and User-Friendly Capabilities

REDWOOD CITY, CA – July 29, 2009 – BroadVision, Inc. (NASDAQ: BVSN), a global provider of e-business and e-commerce solutions, announced the release of BroadVision 8.2. The BroadVision® 8.2 platform provides greater flexibility and agility for customers to configure and stand-up business- and mission-critical websites.

BroadVision’s Kona™ 8.2 platform contains new features that facilitate and promote code reuse for easier and quicker e-business optimization. Instead of creating functionality or process code in two different web application packs, BroadVision allows the creation of common functionality in one shared pack and then the ability to reuse it in the two different applications by creating a dependency to the shared pack. This reduces QA cycles within a project and supports customers’ needs for faster time to market.

BroadVision’s highly-scalable platform supports a large number of transactions, keeping site performance high even during peak times. This enables companies to handle high site traffic successfully and drive customer satisfaction, enhance user experience and increase customer loyalty, whether in a portal knowledgebase or online shopping and purchasing experience

BroadVision e-Business Includes e-Commerce
The Kona platform is the underlying platform to BroadVision’s Business Agility Suite™ and Commerce Agility Suite™ solutions.

BroadVision 8.2 includes an enhanced administrative support for multiple currencies that allows the site administrator to specify a currency and the conversion rate. When a purchaser places an order, the purchaser can choose among the currencies and the order price will be adjusted based on the currency he or she chooses.

“Our goal is to constantly improve our functionality to put top-notch technology in our customers' hands for them to reach their e-business objectives and outperform their competitors,” says Dr. Pehong Chen, President and CEO of BroadVision. “As a provider of flexible and agile web applications, BroadVision stays on top of e-business evolutions giving our customers the keys to easy-to-use, customized solutions. We are already getting great response from existing customers that will migrate up to the new platform.”   

www.broadvision.com Uses Own 8.2 e-Business Platform
BroadVision recently re-designed and re-launched its own website using the 8.2 platform. The site was developed and deployed in less than 2 months. The site will continue to enhance capabilities that will showcase the 8.2 platform’s flexibility and capabilities. Content owners and the non-technical Marketing department can now use:

  • Easy publishing forms for WYSIWYG creating and editing web content;
  • Staging Services™ module to deploy content to the Production site ad hoc;
  • BroadVision Management Center™ administrative console to easily manage content navigation and content presentation.
