CUPERTINO, Calif., March 3, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- NetManage, Inc.
(Nasdaq:NETM), a software company that provides the fastest way to transform
legacy applications into new Web-based business solutions, today announced that
Banco Desio, an Italy-based banking company, has deployed NetManage's OnWeb(r)
to unify access to proprietary and new applications by enabling Single Sign On
(SSO) for its 1,500 employees. Additionally, OnWeb will improve the printing
abilities of Banco Desio's legacy applications by providing PDF printing
formatting and layout customization.
After decades of integrating new information systems, each of Banco Desio's
1,500 employees had to memorize several passwords with different authentication
systems. The system was burdened with delays and Banco Desio encountered
problems when updating passwords, which resulted in a reduced capacity in the
security of the system. The Information Systems and Organization Division of
Banco Desio, in tandem with IT provider Cedacri, set out to streamline the
system and identify a solution to integrate and access SSO.
NetManage worked with Banco Desio and Cedacri to develop a script designed as a
customized solution allowing integration with Desio Credit applications and
Cedacri's hosted SSO. Today, Banco Desio has a single password requirement
across all applications, SSO alignment with other institutions served by
Cedacri, and the ability to integrate SSO with proprietary, as well as future
internally developed applications.
Additionally, the OnWeb deployment allows the Italian bank to export documents
and data to a PDF format, using the new iPrint feature in the latest release of
OnWeb. The Web interface allows for the printing of documents of contracts and
forms that are typically required by clients in a PDF formats quickly with a
graphic layout that complies with Banco Desio's company image.
"Integration between applications to achieve a single password; managing a new
application for forms with attractive graphic reproduction; the ability to grow
competencies and know-how internally; These three important objectives have
become a reality thanks to the support of NetManage and OnWeb," states Tiziano
Eugenio Colombo of Banco Desio Information Systems and Organization Division.
"Just because companies have been integrating additional processes over the
years doesn't mean they have to be slowed down by complex information systems,"
said Philippe Sebag, director, France, NetManage. "We were pleased to work with
Banco Desio's numerous legacy applications, significantly streamlining them to
save time and expense."
