3Com Deploys Java Applications Using Bulletproof's JDesignerPro 3.0 Development System and Application Server PRNewswire - 02:14 p.m Dec 02, 1998 Eastern LOS GATOS, Calif., Dec. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- BulletProof Corporation, a leader in 100% Java tools and servers, announced today that 3Com Corporation has deployed several key Intranet applications using BulletProof's JDesignerPro 3.0. 3Com has developed customer information tracking and customer service applications that allow 3Com support personnel to more easily handle customer requests, understand customer network setup and manage support labs. This application is accessible by authorized users anywhere in the world through browser-based Java interfaces. More information about this success story and a free trial of JDesignerPro 3.0 can be found at bulletproof.com. "JDesignerPro 3.0 is a great product. It offered us a very intuitive and fast way of building Intranet database applications," says Pete Heller, Senior Technical Support Engineer at 3Com Corporation. "By including the BulletProof Enterprise Server for scalability and the Deployment Manager the process was easy yet powerful. We are already planning enhancements and additional applications." "We are very pleased to help 3Com achieve success with their Java Intranet applications," says Peter Muller, CTO, BulletProof Corporation. "JDesignerPro 3.0 has helped 3Com speed up customer support which saves them and their customers time and effort, while maximizing network performance." 3Com needed applications to manage access to important customer account and network configuration data. As they manage customer support the team requires fast information about the customer's network setup. They also must replicate that setup in a lab. Two of the four main solutions built with JDesignerPro 3.0 at 3Com are a Customer Profile System for searching over, adding and modifying data on major customers and their network structure, and a Drawing Server Launch System for accessing the network configuration drawing directory on the server and launch the interface to manage the directory. Prior to deploying these new applications 3Com had to do these tasks manually which was a more tedious and slower process. Thanks to these applications, all of 3Com's customer support staff can access important customer information and network drawing configuration through a browser, worldwide. JDesignerPro 3.0 BulletProof Corp's JDesignerPro 3.0 is a 100% Java, standards-based toolset and server which includes features to take the user from development through deployment of 3-tier systems. By integrating a visual IDE for client and server-side design, the Deployment Manager(TM), access control system, and the BulletProof Enterprise Server(TM), the Java and Intranet developer can finish and deploy professional, browser-based applications while avoiding the complexities associated with multi-tier, platform-independent systems. Pricing and Availability JDesignerPro 3.0 is available today directly from BulletProof for $995 per developer with an Enterprise Server starter pack. Development Seats are $395.
