Make Technologies(R) Enterprise Suite Introduced to IT Modernization Marketplace

Innovative solution to reduce custom code in enterprise legacy
portfolios while keeping businesses agile

VANCOUVER, March 1 /PRNewswire/ - Make Technologies® Inc. is proud to introduce
the Make Technologies® Enterprise Suite, an end-to-end solution for
application portfolio modernization. Customers can expect to
dramatically reduce the amount of custom code in their legacy portfolio
without changing workflows or the way they run their business.

The Make Technologies® Enterprise Suite is built on top of Transformational Legacy Modernization (TLM®), the company's proven modernization platform. TLM® is fit-for-purpose software guided by a mature methodology and
supported by the best practices of our modernization experts.

The Make Technologies® Enterprise Suite allows customers to build a
pragmatic application roadmap that is closely aligned with the
strategic initiatives of its business, based on strong data points such
as code dependencies and application usage patterns. The result is a
marked reduction in code maintenance, giving CXOs the freedom to pay
more attention to essential business matters while gaining a
competitive edge in their industry.

"The challenge with all organizations is their ability to do more with
less and in a resource-constrained environment companies are finding it
challenging to support and maintain legacy applications and
simultaneously innovate.  As noted in Forrester's Enterprise and SMB
Software Survey, North America and Europe, Q42008 showed that a fairly
stunning change has taken place in IT leaders' plans and priorities. 
Application modernization supplanted the hot topics of prior years:
eBusiness, Agile, Lean, cloud, etc.  In fact the three most important
software initiatives for IT decision-makers all focused on application
modernization: 1) update/ modernization legacy applications; 2) upgrade
enterprise applications; and 3) consolidate or rationalize enterprise
applications.  The data highlights a sharp turn in IT leader's
thinking; They have come to realize that streamlining bloated
application portfolios is no longer an optional activity.  Rather,
modernization is the best new opportunity to cut waste on low-value
applications and thus free the corresponding resources for new projects
and innovation."  April 26, 2010 Forrester Report.(1)

Make Technologies® Enterprise Suite allows businesses to:

        --  Lower the cost of application maintenance by lowering the
            amount of custom code and creating an easy to maintain
            application.
        --  Maximize the speed and quality of implementation with
            state-of-the-art, integrated tools supporting collaboration,
            analysis, code generation and data migration.
        --  Controlthe output quality continuously throughout
            the engagement.
        --  Verify the functional completeness of the modernized
            applications.

"As legacy systems continue to age and the speed of business continues
to increase, the need to modernize enterprise-level IT is at a record
high," said Bill Bergen, CEO of Make Technologies Inc. "Many companies
are investing millions of dollars into a modernization project and
cannot afford setbacks or failure. Organizations are looking to
understand what they own - to quantify the business value and
maintenance of their applications so as to devise a rational plan for
streamlined modernization efforts. Make Technologies® Enterprise Suite
ensures complete project success through its combined software,
methodology, and best practices."
