"Actra CommerceXpert fills a void in the
marketplace by providing buyers and sellers with
flexible solutions to communicate more easily and
effectively during Internet transactions. Actra's new
applications will enable both buyers and sellers to
develop more customized and efficient processes to
manage Internet purchasing."
Mike Kennedy, VP of the
Advanced Information Management Division, Meta Group
"Actra CommerceXpert is addressing a space in
the market that is potentially huge, and growing -
the Internet commerce applications space. The solid,
well thought out, extensible architecture that
leverages open standards - such as CORBA and IIOP -
on which Actra CommerceXpert is built, makes Actra an
interesting proposition for any Fortune 1000 company
looking to extend its Internet commerce
activities."
Robert Chlebowski, SVP,
Electronic Commerce, Wells Fargo Bank
"Wells Fargo is a significant player in EDI and
is committed to business-to-business electronic
commerce. The fact that Actra is driving EDIINT
standards to enable secure, interoperable Internet
standards and that ECXpert is built upon those
security standards was a huge benefit to our
customers. Proprietary systems that require our
partners and customers to have the same software as
us, in order to communicate, has never been a
satisfactory option. Actra ECXpert offers an open,
secure alternative that makes the Internet a viable
business alternative for communication. We need a
product that will enable us to carry out a complete
commerce cycle from our back-end systems through to
any number of small, middle market or large corporate
customers needing to enact payment. Wells Fargo looks
forward to working with businesses interested in
electronic commerce solutions to meet their business
needs, and as an early adopter of Actra ECXpert
stands ready to assist companies with their
implementations."
Maynard Webb, CIO,
Bay Networks
"As a leading internetworking company, we
leverage Internet technologies such as ECXpert to
remove the barriers of distance and time when
conducting business. Our testing shows that by
integrating ECXpert with our SAP system we will be
able to seamlessly transact business with our key
partners either directly over the Internet or via
EDI. We believe this will drastically reduce our
operating expenses and increase efficiency, allowing
us to more tightly focus our resources on our core
competencies."
