Boomi Joins NetSuite's SuiteFlex Developer Program
Leveraging the SuiteFlex Development Platform, NetSuite Customers Can Now Deploy Boomi On Demand Over the Web to Integrate NetSuite With Other SaaS or On-Premise Applications

SAN MATEO, CA and BERWYN, PA--(Marketwire - October 31, 2007) - Boomi today announced the
availability of Boomi On Demand(SM) for NetSuite's SuiteFlex technology
platform. NetSuite customers can now deploy Boomi On Demand over the Web to
integrate NetSuite with other SaaS (software as a service) or on-premise
applications quickly and affordably. The SuiteFlex Development platform
allows third party applications to integrate rich transaction data --
orders, inventory, invoices and shipments -- with their applications, and
enable customers and third-party developers to build new workflows and
applications that look and operate as if NetSuite's own developers wrote
them.
Because NetSuite holds critical business data of a company -- orders,
invoices, Web site transactions, shipping records, time tracking and
payroll data -- the applications that are built on it using SuiteFlex are
much more powerful and business critical. With Boomi On Demand, users can
securely build, deploy and manage integrations to and from NetSuite
directly from the Web using only a Web browser.
Integrations are built visually with familiar point-and-click,
drag-and-drop ease. Once integration processes are built, they are deployed
via a lightweight, dynamic runtime engine called an Atom(SM). Built with
patent-pending technology, Boomi Atoms contain all the components required
to execute an integration process, including connectors, transformation
rules, decision handling and processing logic. Atoms can be hosted for
SaaS-to-SaaS integration or downloaded behind a customer's firewall for
on-premise integration.
"Boomi On Demand is poised to play a critical and unique role in the
NetSuite community," commented Ray Tetlow, chairman and CEO of Skyytek
Corporation (www.skyytek.com), NetSuite's Solution Provider of the Year
2007 and largest reseller and implementation partner. "Skyytek regularly
sets up and integrates NetSuite applications for our clients, and with the
advent of Boomi On Demand, we've seen a dramatic reduction in the time and
cost associated with getting the application up and running for these
companies."
"Traditional integration solutions are completely incongruent with the SaaS
experience in terms of cost, complexity and time to implement. Boomi On
Demand is built to natively handle the complexities of SaaS and on-premise
application integration, making it much easier than ever for companies to
integrate their SaaS workflows with existing business processes," commented
Bob Moul, president and CEO of Boomi. "And because we are a true SaaS
platform, customers can buy integration per connection, making it
significantly more affordable. By providing a ready-to-deploy interface for
the SuiteFlex platform, Boomi On Demand has made it possible for businesses
to quickly connect their existing SaaS and on-premise applications with
NetSuite."
About SuiteFlex and NetSuite's SuiteFlex Developer Program
SuiteFlex is an application development platform that enables the creation
of third-party vertical applications within NetSuite, as well as business
process customization for any end-user company. SuiteFlex includes several
industry technology advances and innovations including additions to
SuiteScript -- which allows for on demand programming using only a Web
browser on a device with Internet access. As a part of SuiteScript,
NetSuite introduced Suitelets and SuiteScript UI Objects, allowing
customers and third-party developers to build new workflows and
applications that can look and operate as if NetSuite's own developers
wrote them. In addition, SuiteFlex introduces a dramatic new concept for
the Software as a Service market -- "Service as Software," SuiteBundler --
to deliver new integrated vertical solutions by packaging their Suitelets
and other extensions with NetSuite's core ERP/CRM/Ecommerce application.
SuiteBundler enables solution providers to embed their industry-best
practices, knowledge and applications -- traditionally delivered as one-off
services -- into the actual NetSuite application for verticals in a
repeatable fashion.
