Aurea Software Acquires Progress Software Businesses

Dec 13, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Aurea Software, a business process management, application and data integration company, announced the successful completion of its acquisition of four Progress Software businesses - Savvion, Sonic, Actional and DataXtend SI.

In a release dated Dec. 10, the Company said it is headed by enterprise software industry veteran Scott Brighton. Brighton formerly served as President of Trilogy Enterprises.

"We are very pleased to have met this important first milestone and to formally launch company operations," said Brighton. "An experienced and talented team from Progress forms the core of Aurea, and we have begun to add critical resources to drive customer impact in account management, development, support, and professional services.

"One hundred percent Customer Success - a top-down program that ensures customers achieve success based on mutually established and agreed-upon goals - is core to our operating philosophy. Aurea's customers can expect a marked increase in the level of investment in and attention paid to them. We'll be meeting with each and every customer over the first six months of the company's formation.

"The promise of intelligent business process, application, and data management - and the ability to provide real-time insights on complex business processes across the cloud, mobile, and social - is the most exciting idea to emerge in the business process management space since its inception. Savvion, Sonic, Actional, and DataXtend SI - each a powerful and market-leading product on its own - can provide customers game-changing capability when used together. With these technologies, Aurea will create a next-generation iBPMS - with a specific emphasis on enabling critical, high-value business processes in key vertical markets."
