Press Release - JetForm

JetForm Leverages Windows CE 2.0 and Palm PC Platforms with InTempo Enterprise Workflow
New JetForm Filler CE Versions Will Be Demonstrated at Windows CE Developers’ Conference

Announcement Summary

  • JetForm will be demonstrating a new version of JetForm Filler CE for Windows CE 2.0 and the soon-to-be-announced Palm PC platforms
  • Compatibility with JetForm InTempo enterprise workflow enables remote users to initiate a server-based workflow process
  • The new Filler CE software will be priced at $99 and will be upgraded to the new Palm PC and available at the end of the month

SAN JOSE, Calif. – April 7, 1998 -- JetForm Corporation (Nasdaq:FORMF), the global leader in electronic forms and enterprise workflow solutions, today announced expanded electronic forms offerings for the Windows CE platform for users of handheld (H/PC) computing devices.

At the Microsoft Windows CE Developers’ Conference this week the company will be showing a new version of JetForm Filler CE™ for Windows CE 2.0 that is now available. JetForm is also demonstrating its support for the new Palm PC platforms that will ship later this month.

All 1500 developers in attendance will receive a trial version of JetForm Design™, JetForm Filler™ and the H/PC Connect software on a sampler CD.

"JetForm’s development and user tools give the Windows CE developer community a foundation to deliver robust electronic forms and workflow applications today," said Tony Barbagallo, business marketing manager in the Windows CE group at Microsoft Corporation. "We look forward to JetForm’s continued leadership in these areas."

Integration with Enterprise Workflow
JetForm Filler CE for PC Companions offers full e-mail support and synchronization that make it an attractive, efficient and economical alternative to paper-based processes in field and remote locations. In addition, JetForm Filler CE is now fully compatible with InTempo™ 3.0, the JetForm enterprise workflow solution. This integration allows for the first-ever extension of corporate business processes to these new devices. For example, a field service representative can complete an e-form and initiate a server-based enterprise workflow from the
H/PC device.

"The success of the Windows CE platform holds tremendous potential for software developers who believe that the enterprise extends beyond the confines of the corporate campus to give all knowledge workers full participation in these business processes," stated Phil Weaver, executive vice president and COO for JetForm. "The very robust set of features and new development tools found in Windows CE make it a very attractive platform for increased software innovation and ultimately provides greater benefits to the mobile workforce."

"NEC Computer Systems Division’s alliance with JetForm has given immediate value to our NEC MobilePro™ users and developers," said Duane Cowgill, product manager, NEC CSD Handheld Products Group. "JetForm E-forms To Go pre-loaded on the NEC MobilePro series of H/PCs eliminates the inventory of forms that the field-based mobile professional has to carry, thus making their job more manageable and providing a more cost-effective forms creation and distribution solution for
their employers."

The aggressive delivery of JetForm products and services to the H/PC and Palm PC market is a direct result of an agreement with St. Petersburg, Fla.-based Joey Technologies, a leading developer of e-form technology for the personal digital assistant (PDA) market. Under the agreement, JetForm has worldwide marketing rights to Joey’s software solutions, sold under the JetForm brand, and are now fully integrated into the complete JetForm family of client and server technologies.

Pricing and Availability
JetForm Filler CE is available immediately and is priced at $99.00. Filler CE will be upgraded to include support for the Palm PC scheduled for end of the month.
