Zapatec Launches Enterprise-Class Web 2.0 Calendar



Developers Can Now Quickly Embed a Full Feature Calendar or Deploy It as a Virtual Appliance

BERKELEY, Calif., Feb. 26 -- Zapatec, Inc., a leading provider of AJAX development tools, today announced the launch of its AJAX Events Calendar, a single-page, multi-user solution, providing full desktop functionality in an easy-to-deploy calendaring solution. Developers can now embed the Calendar in any application or purchase it as a software package, a hosted solution or a virtual appliance deployable on Amazon's EC2 cloud.

"Building Web 2.0 applications from scratch is expensive and time-consuming," said Dror Matalon, CEO of Zapatec. "By plugging the Zapatec Events Calendar into an application, you accelerate the time to market for your project while reducing costs and future-proofing your calendaring needs. Using our AJAX Events Calendar frees you up to focus on your core business."

"We needed to add an elegant yet complex calendaring component to waComplete.com, our service that provides businesses with a rich, Web 2.0 CRM solution with integrated VoIP and personal assistant services," said Stuart Hibbert, CEO of Web Applied Limited. "Zapatec's Events Calendar provided us with an intuitive, powerful solution that was surprisingly simple to integrate into our application."

About the Zapatec Events Calendar

The Zapatec Events Calendar, a true single page application, supports a vast array of features:

-- User Friendly: Create and move events using drag and drop.

-- Multiple views: Day, week, work week and month views.

-- Recurring events: Provides support for the creation and viewing of recurring daily, weekly and monthly events.

-- Multiple calendars: Events for different calendars are displayed in different colors.

-- Multi-user: View calendars of other people in your organization.

-- Access-control: Decide who can view your calendars and whether they can make changes.

-- Internationalized: Supports different languages, different time zones and different date formats.

-- Developer Friendly: Full separation between the server and user interface. The API provides an easy way to add, remove and update events and calendars.

The standards based Zapatec AJAX Calendar is available as a pluggable AJAX front-end or with either PHP or Java back-ends. It is cross browser compatible and easily customizable.

Using the virtual appliance option, customers can have the calendar up and running in less than an hour in their own private environment. Companies get all the benefits of a hosted solution: no hardware to configure, fast deployment and low maintenance, while still having full control of the product.

Pricing for the calendar starts at $2000.

The calendar is the first in the series of self contained modules that Zapatec offers. An email module and a contact module are due in April 2008.
