New Report: IDC Spotlight on Unify
IDC Analyst Sandy Rogers, wrote the report entitled
"Transitioning Legacy Applications into More Valuable Assets."
It addresses how successful and agile enterprise customers must adjust to changing business demands, and examines
how some enterprise customers approach the migration of legacy and proprietary mission-critical applications to
open web and standards-based environments such as Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Also discussed are the
compelling reasons that companies are targeting application migration and modernization projects today and Unify's
role in enabling the strategic conversions of Lotus Notes applications with its migration offering, Composer for
Lotus Notes.

of the report or visit unify.com.
Migrate Lotus Notes Applications with Composer
Composer for Lotus Notes is Unify’s software plus services solution for migrating Lotus Notes applications to the
Microsoft
or Java platforms.
Whether an organization faces a mandate to move off of Lotus Notes or wants to move a subset of Notes applications
to a new platform to consolidate, integrate or collaborate, Composer delivers a complete, like-for-like migration.
Composer decomposes and re-assembles the Notes applicaitons into Web services without disruption to end users,
enabling organizations to adopt newer platforms and speed the internal rate of return.
Unify has partnered with Microsoft, having recently showcased Composer, Microsoft Edition in an international, 16 city road show to educate Microsoft partners and the world’s largest IT customers about the Microsoft Notes Transition Framework, an initiative to help transition customers from a Notes-centric computing environment to the Microsoft .NET and SharePoint environment.
