eXo Extends Seesmic Into Java Enterprises

Improves enterprise collaboration with real-time activity streams from eXo social intranet applications inside Seesmic Desktop

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- eXo (http://www.exoplatform.com) today announced that its user experience platform, eXo Platform, is now integrated into the Seesmic Desktop application. The integration extends Seesmic to thousands of eXo enterprise users at large financial services, insurance and telco companies as well as public sector agencies. These organizations have modernized their Java systems with eXo Platform, bringing the rich, social features of the consumer web to their Java applications. Now, from Seesmic Desktop, users can access real-time updates from their eXo-based applications, alongside their Twitter, Linkedin and Facebook activity streams.

News Highlights

    --  eXo Platform is a social intranet, integrated web content management
        system and modern application development platform in one for Java
        enterprises. It provides a framework for integrating existing Java and
        third-party applications - even those written in Ruby, PHP and .NET - or
        rapidly building applications, mashups or REST custom APIs.
    --  Initially launched as a Twitter client,  Seesmic Desktop can now manage
        multiple accounts across several services, including Facebook, Google
        Buzz, Linkedin and Twitter. With Seesmic Desktop, Seesmic is expanding
        the use of the Desktop application beyond personal social networks to
        enterprise applications such as eXo Platform. The new marketplace has
        over 50 social networking, entertainment, utilities and e-commerce
        integrations to extend the functionality of their desktop application
        far beyond Facebook and Twitter.
    --  Integration of eXo services inside Seesmic Desktop offers convenient
        access for enterprise users. Real-time updates from co-workers, teams
        and applications are syndicated inside the application, alongside other
        services that users frequently access already, such as their Facebook,
        Linkedin and Twitter accounts.
    --  By integrating enterprise activity streams into a familiar 'daily use'
        sort of tool like Seesmic, eXo makes it easier for users to track,
        respond and collaborate on business-related activities - even when
        they're not logged into their company social intranet.

Supporting Quotes

    --  Benjamin Mestrallet, founder and CEO of eXo: "The expansion of Seesmic
        Desktop into the enterprise further fuels the consumerization of IT that
        is blurring the lines between the personal and the corporate.
        Increasingly, our customers want the ease and features of the consumer
        web in their day-to-day corporate computing life, and eXo integrated
        into Seesmic does just that."
    --  Loic Le Meur, CEO of Seesmic:  "Our plug-in architecture on Seesmic
        Desktop allows enterprise players like eXo to expand the reach of their
        services to social networks.  With the integration into Seesmic Desktop,
        eXo now brings together the internal feeds of an organization and the
        external feeds of all the social services available on our platform."
