A handful of former Softies who worked about the Microsoft Online Explorer group have launched a business which is tackling the IE six migration difficulty confronted by a great number of businesses.The new Redmond, Wash.-based organization, Browsium, launched on March fifteen its 1st product, recognized as UniBrows. UniBrows will enable “legacy IE 6-based Net applications to run on Windows 7 and IE 8 on Windows XP without modifying a single line of code,” according to the enterprise;s Internet site.One of the main reasons that a number of businesses (in the U.S.,Office Ultimate 2007, at least) are still running IE6 on XP is they;ve built internally-facing applications that are dependent on IE six. Microsoft has been encouraging customers, even those running on XP, to upgrade to IE 8 — but not IE 9,Purchase Office 2010, since Microsoft doesn;t support IE 9 on XP. But the upgrade process is difficult and costly. In fact, Gartner analysts dinged Microsoft last year on the cost of its IE six migration tools.Browsium is touting UniBrows as a way for organizations to free up their Windows 7 upgrade path. The item makes use of an IE 8 add-on that enables IE 6 web applications to run in an IE 8 tab, enabling enterprises to upgrade PCs to Windows 7 while keeping their legacy IE six applications running unmodified, according to the firm.“UniBrows delivers complete IE6 functionality and behaviors by using the original, native IE6 rendering, JavaScript, ActiveX and security design,” organization officials said in today;s press release. Administrators can
create the rules and profiles for specifying which net applications should use the IE6 browser engine and legacy ActiveX components and which can use the IE 8 ones.Browsium has been testing UniBrows with customers for the past 6 months, the release added.UniBrows is licensed to organizations with 5,000 to 50,000 PCs with a $5,000 base license fee plus $5 per seat. Licenses, renewable yearly,Microsoft Office Standard 2007, include all updates and upgrades at no additional cost. Volume discounts are available.
