User Experience/Portal Software

Service-oriented architectures (SOAs) are giving enterprises the ability to reuse application functionality and to interconnect heterogeneous systems to create new composite applications. Yet it's been difficult for many enterprises to leverage this paradigm for their user interfaces. Yesterday's thick clients have only been replaced with a proliferation of purpose-built web applications that can’t be reused or customized for new opportunities.

Organizations want to leverage the rich, highly personalized user experiences that their employees, partners, and customers take for granted in a Web 2.0 world. They also need to embrace agility through loosely coupled components, services, and adaptive business processes. TIBCO supports this requirement with a range of standards-based, best-in-breed technologies.

TIBCO's user experience software enables organizations to assemble solutions from independent building blocks of Ajax-aware components. Reusable rich portlets, components, and gadgets – assembled through composite applications, business processes, and portals – allow organizations to quickly build and provision rich new user interfaces. Smart portlet wizards, delegated administration, and self-service desktops allow users to personalize and even mashup their own components.
