Open Text introduced Exceed Freedom 2008, the newest member of the Exceed product family from Hummingbird, the Open Text Connectivity Solutions Group. A first in the UNIX Connectivity market, the innovative design of Exceed Freedom 2008 empowers users to collaborate on projects in real-time. Hummingbird Connectivity connects people, data and applications in mission-critical environments with an award-winning suite of solutions.
Exceed Freedom is an add-on to Exceed 2008, utilized by millions of users in Global 2000 organizations to access their mission-critical UNIX applications. With this technology, organizations can leverage the unrealized value of their existing network infrastructure by allowing IT departments to consolidate over-distributed and under-utilized UNIX servers to centralized application centers. Open Text's products and applications address all-inclusive challenges that are applicable across the enterprise.
With new UNIX desktop sharing capabilities, Exceed users can now easily and securely share their UNIX desktop environments and applications with others over any geographical distance, Exceed Freedom helps organizations improve communication efficiency, reduce unproductive wait time, and accelerate business development and processes. With high performance over any connection and seamless integration with any security framework, Exceed Freedom facilitates UNIX resource consolidation without diminishing users' ability to access business information, regardless of location.
Exceed Freedom lets mobile workers suspend and resume their UNIX application environments, so that users can easily gain access to the same UNIX desktop and applications from any location. Exceed Freedom preserves users' work in progress and keeps valuable data alive in the event of a sudden loss of power or network connection, significantly reducing down time and productivity loss.
"As the leader in the market for UNIX access solutions with products reaching over 90 percent of the Global 2000 companies, our mission is to provide software solutions that help increase their competitiveness regardless of which market they are in," commented Eugene Cherny, General Manager, Hummingbird, the Open Text Connectivity Solutions Group. "Adding to 20 years of innovation with our Exceed product family, we are extremely proud of the release of Exceed Freedom, designed to address real-time collaboration, mobility and resource streamlining, with the traditional quality and integrity that our customers have come to expect. Today's announcement illustrates our ongoing commitment to deliver innovative enterprise-focused solutions to our customers."
Business mobility allows users to access applications and data thousands of miles away at any hour of the day. It also allows companies to respond to business needs quicker, and swiftly react to emergencies. Exceed Freedom has been specifically created to extend the reach of graphical UNIX applications to Exceed users at home or on the road. It gives Exceed users new found freedom of movement by liberating them from the confinement of their cubicles while allowing them to interact with business systems as if sitting in the office. Exceed Freedom further pushes the limit of mobility and productivity by allowing users to suspend and resume their applications at any time from any place on any computer.
