I have not blogged here in a while but promise to try better. For now, here’s an update for everyone..

I am proud of the fact that OpenSpan has this year won, not one, but two finalists CODIE awards. Being placed alongside companies like Adobe and Salesforce in the finals is reward in itself. The awards were (I sound like someone from BAFTA or the Oscars) for the two categories, BEST BUSINESS PRODUCTIVITY SOLUTION and BEST WEB SERVICES SOLUTION.

OpenSpan also announced the doubling of it’s revenue in 2008 and deployment to 100,000 desktops. Desktop Productivity solutions have never been more in demand than they are now. Enterprises have immediate needs to make their existing desktop applications more productive for their users and OpenSpan hits that sweet spot. Not forgetting all of the M&A activity in financial services, the demand for automating workflows across multiple silo’d applications is high.

If you have not seen our new Web site, please check it out. OPENSPAN – it’s more than a makeover, it’s putting clarity on our successes and our positioning. I love it. Good Job team.

Lots of exciting news happening in 2009 – and I mean LOTS so watch this space for more details. i will also try to wet your appetite on what is coming, over the next few weeks!
