TULSA, OK–( EMWNews – April 1, 2008) – TMA Systems announces today at their annual

conference their strategic decision to switch to Servoy as the primary

platform for their software product. In a keynote speech John C. Smith,

CEO, details the reasons why his firm has chosen Servoy’s ultra-thin client

deployment platform as the future for TMA Systems. Along with Smith,

Managing Director of Servoy USA, Bob Cusick, will take the stage to explain

how Servoy entered into a long-term partnership with TMA Systems in a

unique “ISV Assurance” program to insure that TMA is successful in this

critical transition.

Why Servoy? Smith outlines that his clients are demanding software that can

be accessed via the web on any browser. Additionally, Servoy is standards

based (Java/JavaScript/XML) and deploys on all modern operating systems

(Windows/Mac/Linux/Solaris) — meeting TMA’s diverse customers needs. TMA

also found that Servoy was 2 to 5 times faster to develop in than .NET or

straight Java. “We found after extensive research and trial & error, that

it was best for us to partner with a growing company (Servoy) that was

willing to enter into a contract with us to ensure our conversion success.”

Servoy’s zero-deployment environment was also a key selling feature. “With

Servoy, customers will not have to visit each and every machine for initial

installations and maintenance releases. Servoy runs off an application

server — so it rolls out (or back) remotely. This also sets us up to offer

Software as a Service (SaaS) in the future.”

Cusick will take center stage to demonstrate Servoy’s capabilities to the

crowd of over 500 attendees. “Servoy will allow TMA end users to create and

add their own reports to the report manager — a feature highly requested

in the past.” Also, because Servoy can connect to any SQL (or multiple SQL)

databases at the same time — end users will be able to access more data

and turn it into reports that meet their specific needs. “Servoy offers

advanced User Interface (UI) options that allows the end-user to open

multiple windows, type-ahead (guess-for-you) fields and movable column

headers,” according to Cusick.

Additionally, Servoy is the only cross-platform environment to offer data

broadcasting — meaning if one user changes his/her data and a different

user is viewing that same data, the both users will see the change in real

time. Servoy pushes the changes out to all clients. “We are very happy with

our long-term agreement to assist TMA’s development team in their switch to

Servoy. Our developers have been literally working side-by-side with TMA’s

excellent staff to make sure we help them hit deadlines and stay within

budget. We are excited to be partners with such a world-class operation,”

said Cusick.

world-class provider of advanced Computerized Maintenance Management

Systems – (CMMS). These software solutions are for organizations that want
