Because of the unique integration technology approach; the OpenSpan Platform offers a tremendous amount of value for independent software vendors.  In particular OpenSpan enables ISVs to:

• Simplify the adoption process for your customers – enable rapid integration of your software application into your customer’s heterogeneous environments.  The OpenSpan Platform enables integration between virtually any type of applications including Windows (e.g. Microsoft Office), web, host, Java, PowerBuilder, even DOS applications.
• Deliver a fully integrated product offering – overcome your own product integration challenges by leveraging the rapid integration capabilities of OpenSpan.  Rapidly integrate acquired, licensed or embedded technologies including web services functionality. Or, build a common user interface that spans your applications.
• Provide incremental customer value – OpenSpan can provide triggers to your application based upon user activity within business applications. Additionally, OpenSpan can capture user or application-level metrics or trigger audit trails for compliance purposes.
