Magic Software Named a "Strong Performer in Integration-Centric BPM Market" by Independent Research Firm

 Independent Report notes Magic Software's "comprehensive solution," pricing, and partnership with SAP make it an "appealing alternative” for mid-market users seeking an integration-centric, business process management suite

Or Yehuda, Israel; February 20, 2007 – Forrester Research, has named Magic Software Enterprises (NASDAQ: MGIC) as a "Strong Performer" in Forrester's recently published report, "The Forrester Wave: Integration-Centric Business Process Management Suites, Q4 2006." (December 2006).  In all, 35 vendors were interviewed for the report, 13 qualified for review, and only five, including Magic Software, were rated as "Strong Performers."

The report, released in December 2006 and authored by Ken Vollmer and Henry Peyret, states, "Magic has a midmarket focus, and its pricing makes it an appealing alternative, coupled with a partnership with SAP that accelerates connection of SAP Business One customers to their SME-based applications.  Its comprehensive coverage makes it a good fit for midsize companies looking for an all-in-one solution for their integration, BPM, and service-oriented architecture (SOA) needs.”

The Forrester report also noted Magic Software's "surprising number of strategic alliances for a vendor of that size", its "strong product roadmap", and its position "at the lower end of the pricing scale for products in this category.” Magic Software’s market share buildup in the IBM midrange System i category, has also contributed to Forrester’s assessment.

Magic Software's iBOLT™ is a cost-effective and straightforward business process integration framework that rationalizes diverse standards and proprietary formats and quickly creates, and dynamically deploys, new business processes, services, and applications.  Its innovative visual design tools, including Data Mapper and integration wizards, assure fast, end-to-end business integration across the enterprise.

"Magic is gaining increased recognition and mindshare as a significant player in the SME middleware market," said Avigdor Luttinger, Magic Software's vice president of corporate strategy.  "Our increasing presence in ecosystems such as SAP Business One and Oracle's J.D. Edwards World is recognized by Forrester as a very focused strategy for addressing midmarket needs with a comprehensive product set."
