BEA WebLogic Portal achieves unmatched growth and success

Johannesburg, 05 Nov 2003

Did you know? Since its introduction less than two years ago, BEA WebLogic Portal has become central to the information technology strategy of more than 1 000 enterprises in diverse industries such as financial services, government, manufacturing and telecommunications.

BEA`s combination of robust portal technology with a fully integrated application development and deployment environment is helping drive growth and innovation within the enterprise portal market, which analyst firm Gartner predicts will reach $1.6 billion by 2007^1.

Increasingly, organisations are turning to a fully integrated portal solution such as BEA WegLogic Portal to grow beyond traditional departmental portal projects and enable enterprise-wide solutions such as workforce productivity, customer experience management and trading partner management.

Leveraging BEA`s standards-based approach to portal deployments, customers are using BEA WebLogic Portal to consolidate their legacy portals into a single, integrated ecosystem designed to allow resources to be easily shared across multiple portal projects.

Customers are clearly responding to BEA`s integrated approach. According to a recent Gartner report^2, BEA WebLogic Portal has grown to become a leader in the enterprise portal server market. In addition, Gartner says: "In the early days of this market, pure-play vendors were the only path to a portal product. Subsequently middle-tier vendors and large independent software vendors (ISVs) entered the market in force. During the past nine months however, there has been a major shift in market momentum away from the pure-play vendors to the large ISVs."

With BEA WebLogic Portal, BEA brings a more complete portal solution to its customers.
