TIBCO BusinessConnect
The Internet lets buyers and sellers interact more directly than ever before–letting suppliers open new markets and sell more efficiently and letting buyers find the best vendor for a particular product or service. In addition, globally accessible "e-marketplaces" are changing the nature of B2B commerce by bringing businesses together in dynamic trading environments. These intermediaries are making markets look and act much like financial trading floors with real-time straight-through processing.
The ability for enterprises to securely and efficiently communicate and transact with partners, customers and vendors is the key to maintaining a competitive advantage in the Internet economy. This "business-to-business or "B2B" is about tying together systems and business processes across company boundaries using the Internet.
TIBCO BusinessConnect™ software lets enterprises conduct transactions with other businesses by enabling the secure exchange of business documents and automating cross-company processes. TIBCO BusinessConnect leverages TIBCO's experience with enterprise application integration (EAI) to completely integrate systems and processes across company boundaries.
TIBCO BusinessConnect also provides partner management functionality to let enterprises efficiently define and maintain the complex partner relationships that must be in place for B2B commerce to take place.
