      WINNER

      Unify Corp.
      NXJ 10.5

      In the complex and developer-oriented world of BPM (business process management), Web services and SOAs (service-oriented architectures), usability and ease of deployment often can be overlooked. But Unifys NXJ 10.5 does such a good job of making it simple and fast for companies to create, model and deploy business processes that it was impossible for the judges to ignore these strengths.

      /zimages/3/28571.gifFor a list of all the winners and finalists of the fifth annual eWEEK Excellence Awards, click here.

      Looking at the overall Unify NXJ platform, it was clear that the product makes it possible for companies to get started creating and integrating processes and business applications in a matter of days rather than the weeks or months that many competing products would require.

      Despite the point-release designation, NXJ 10.5 is a major release, with Unify (www.unify.com) adding several important new features, including increased application integration, Web services support and an integrated portal server. Overall, the judges were very impressed with the NXJ process tools ease of use, breadth of capabilities and multiple process deployment options. Unify NXJ, like most good integration solutions, has strong support for open standards and can be deployed across any Java server platform. And starting at $18,000 for a corporate deployment, NXJ is clearly on the affordable side for this type of application.
