BroadVision Launches Vmoso in China
January 06 2016 - 11:00AM
BroadVision, Inc. (Nasdaq:BVSN), a leading provider of business
collaboration and engagement solutions, today announced the general
availability of Vmoso for the China market. With today’s
businesses being virtual, mobile, and social, Vmoso is optimized to
help global enterprises, large or small, save time/cost, achieve
higher efficiency, and attain greater business success.
Vmoso unifies email, instant messaging, content sharing,
workflow, and social networking into one integrated environment,
forming a single source of truth across a detailed corporate
knowledge web, to significantly enhance both internal collaboration
and external engagement. It supports hybrid cloud deployment,
offering both public/private hosting options to ensure the highest
level of data security and information privacy. As an open
system, Vmoso features more than 400 RESTful APIs designed for
two-way integration with any existing or new enterprise backend,
portal, or mobile applications.
Vmoso client applications are available universally on all
HTML-5 web browsers for PC, Mac, and tablets, as well as natively
on iOS and Android mobile devices. In addition, BroadVision
also announced today the general release of Vmoso WeChat Enterprise
Edition, which fully integrates with WeChat, the world’s most
popular consumer chat platform, boasting more than 800 million
registered users globally. Due to the popularity of BOYD
(bring-your-own-device), organizations everywhere are now
confronted with numerous security and compliance risks brought
about by its companion BYOA (bring-your-own-app) phenomenon.
Nowhere is it more wide-spread and serious than in China where
WeChat is being used for business on a self-initiated
basis.
With Vmoso’s WeChat Enterprise Edition, companies can leverage
WeChat’s popularity with employees and customers, all while
seamlessly diverting business communication, collaboration, and
engagement into Vmoso, behind its own firewall, and on its own
private cloud. From the user’s perspective, the familiar
experience remains, except all business related activities are now
consolidated via a single “WeChat Enterprise Account” corresponding
to each organization, whereupon Vmoso provides a more secure and
robust environment.
“Most chat tools today are designed for ‘chitchatting’, with low
expectation for information security or content longevity -- any
‘big data’ is relegated to ‘big garbage’ at best,” commented Dr.
Pehong Chen, CEO of BroadVision. “But with business mobility taking
center stage, a new workstyle will emerge as the mainstream for
business. Increased data in the form of user-generated
content will pass through and reside in mobile applications. Now,
‘big data’ must become the source for ‘big knowledge’.” Dr. Chen
continued, “Unlike common chat tools, Vmoso is optimized to address
this shift.”
“With nearly 40,000 employees and hundreds of superstores across
the country, one of our top corporate priorities has always focused
on improving internal communication/collaboration, cross-store
knowledge sharing, and on enhancing one-to-one customer
engagement/feedback,” said Mr. Zhang Yihua, CIO of WuMart Stores
(SEHK:1025), one of China’s leading supermarket chains.
“While WeChat has offered our users a great deal of convenience in
achieving those goals, it remains very high risk for us when all
data resides only in everyone’s handset and not with the company
and when we have no way of regulating who gets invited into which
chat room. Consequently, we fully endorse Vmoso WeChat
Enterprise Edition, totally believe in its capability, and wish for
its resounding success in China market.”
Ms. Xu Jie, SVP Enterprise Solutions, at China Software &
Technology Services Inc. (SHSE:600536), one of the largest
technology companies in China, agrees. She said, “The
state-owned enterprises (SOEs) we serve all share a common and
pressing need for adopting a new mobile collaboration
platform. However, their data security and information
privacy requirements far exceed that of any non-SOE
organizations. As a result, consumer chat tools like WeChat
are banned for business use in any SOEs.” Despite such
official ban, Ms. Xu noted that, in private and for convenience
reasons, essentially all employees continue to use WeChat for
business. All SOEs can do is to adopt an ambivalent “don’t
ask; don’t tell” policy as a compromise. She insisted, “This
is why we are so excited about Vmoso’s potential in China,
especially thanks to enhanced security via its private cloud
deployment. We are very confident that we can bring Vmoso to
our SOE clients to accelerate their mobile enterprise
transformation.”
