Actuate iServer Express to be Resold in Japan and Asia Pacific Region by XLsoft

Thursday May 15 9:00 PM

XLsoft has resold Actuate e.Spreadsheet Engine in Japan since 2001 and has amassed deep expertise in the technology. XLsoft's familiarity with Actuate's e.Spreadsheet technology dates back to 1999. In the past three years XLsoft has been the largest reseller of e.Spreadsheet technology, with projects including many of Japan's largest companies plus many Japanese government installations.

Launched in March 2008, iServer Express is a report server that deploys, manages, schedules, secures, runs and distributes BIRT and e.Spreadsheet reports. It is designed for software development teams that want to automate report delivery and eliminate the burden of manually fulfilling user requests for reports. iServer Express is the latest in a series of Actuate initiatives to support the success of BIRT developers, building upon already available resources including BIRT Exchange (http://www.birt-exchange.com), technical support, training and interactive reporting functionality.

"Our relationship with Actuate has been mutually beneficial over the long term," said Mitsutoshi Watanabe, CEO, XLsoft. "We see a lot of untapped demand for Actuate's Java reporting product set in the Japan and Asia Pacific regions and we are poised to serve that market with great products and services."

"XLSoft provides Actuate with strong representation for our Java Developer focused offerings. The fact that they have chosen to add iServer Express and BIRT to their already strong product mix is testament to the applicability and strong demand for BIRT and e.Spreadsheet content," said Rich Guth, vice president and general manager, Java Group at Actuate. "BIRT Exchange, our Java and report developer community site, has received a great deal of traffic and interest from the Japan and Asia Pacific markets, and our alliance with XLsoft will ensure that requirements in these markets will be well attended to."

XLsoft is currently hosting a customer day at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center, Japan. The event began on May 14th and continues until May 16th. Interested parties are invited to find out more by contacting xlsoftkk@xlsoft.com.
