Enterprise Mashups Overview

Imagine never having to cut and paste again or being able to merge the two applications that you use the most. Creating "mashups" can save everybody time and help make any job easier. And thanks to Convertigo Enterprise Mashup Server solution, you don't need to wait on IT to create one!

So what is a mashup?

A mashup is when two or more web sites (or applications) that may not have been intended to be used side by side, are merged (mashed) into one seamless interface.


Who uses mashups?

We have all used a mashup, but probably didn't know it by that funny name. The last time you searched for the best price on that new tool or piece of jewelry on the web and used the site’s store locater and map to locate the location closest to you, you used a mashup.


Forget "Cut and Paste" forever.

Don’t know how we survived before maps and stores, weather and destinations were mashed up? We don’t either. Now imagine having the power to "mash up" at your finger tips. You'd be able to put contact information near input forms and seamlessly move information from one application to another (Cut and Paste is not seamless, just for the record).

How it all works

Say you have a mainframe for some information that you access regularly, you use the web for other purposes and you access other information on your favorite desktop application. Is it possible to mash all those together into one seamless process? Yes, if you look to Convertigo. We mash all those separate, unstructured or structured sources and present it in a very attractive user interface.

Speaking of user interfaces, you may have your favorites: Gadgets, Widgets, Webparts, etc. But Convertigo has no favorites—we work with them all. We present information just the way you want it. Nothing more, nothing less


Reduce IT pressure

Now you must be thinking, if only my IT department had the time, I could take advantage of all the mashups I have started to imagine. Well, some parts of a mashup may need a little of IT’s time, but most of it can actually be done by the business team. And isn’t that where it should be done anyway, since the business team are the people that use software every day all day? Now that you know you need to mash up and you are beginning to imagine what you need to mash, continue on to Benefits.
