Eastern Mennonite University Adds Web Functionality
Upgrades to Jenzabar TE Web Module Using Jenzabar Partnership Program

CAMBRIDGE, MA-June 14, 2002-Eastern Mennonite University has purchased the Jenzabar TE Web module to extend service offerings to students via the Web. The University made the purchase using discounts from a new multi-year Jenzabar Partnership Program (JPP) contract with Jenzabar. Through JPP, the cost of the Web module proved to be significantly less for Eastern Mennonite. With product discounts and implementation services cut in half, Eastern Mennonite's out-of-pocket expenses for the Web module were extremely low.

Jack Rutt, Eastern Mennonite's Director of Information Technology explained the benefits of purchasing JPP. "The timing of JPP was excellent for us. In Spring 2001, we conducted an extensive study to determine whether or not to purchase the Web Module for our Jenzabar TE product. We determined at that time that we could not afford it. When we were presented with the JPP program, we saw the benefits of the JPP program immediately. We recognized the value of the program in that we were now able to purchase the Web module."

"We are very happy with our AS/400-Jenzabar TE platform. It is a very cost effective, stable, and mature product. We are very excited to add the Web module to it. This allows us to keep the AS/400 solution that we're happy with, and add Web functionality to our service offerings."
