A global provider of mobile and cloud-enabled application and business integration platforms, Magic Software Enterprises Inc., recently signed a technology and marketing cooperation agreement with Roadnet Technologies Inc.


Formerly known as UPS Logistics Technologies, Baltimore-based Roadnet Technologies is a trusted provider of transportation management through optimized street-level route plans, real-time wireless dispatch and GPS. Roadnet also offers strategic territory planning and analysis service for companies of all sizes in multiple industries.

The company claims to serve 190,000 vehicles through 3,400 installations worldwide, representing a variety of industries.

Magic Software’s iBOLT is a business integration platform that quickly and cost-effectively integrates enterprise software applications running on diverse databases, operating systems, and platforms. Capable of integrating a wide range of leading ERP, CRM, SCM, accounting, and other enterprise systems such as SAP, Salesforce.com, Oracle JD Edwards, Lotus Notes, Microsoft Office, IBM i (AS/400), HL7, and Google Apps, iBOLT is used in hundreds of integration projects worldwide. These include manufacturing and distribution companies such as Vishay Intertechnology, adidas Canada and Optik.

Under the cooperation agreement, Roadnet Technologies and Magic Software will provide an integrated solution combining Roadnet Transportation Suite based on Magic Software's iBOLT business integration platform, the companies revealed in a press release.

“We were impressed that Magic Software offers the iBOLT integration platform with more than 50 adapters, wizards, services and methods, enabling us to create continuous business processes between Roadnet and other enterprise applications and systems. This agreement is good news for customers and partners of Roadnet Technologies and Magic Software who are looking to better integrate business processes for transportation management - a matter of great importance as more companies seek ways to improve fuel efficiency, reduce operational costs, and create 'greener' business practices,” said Len Kennedy, CEO of Roadnet Technologies.

“We look forward to providing iBOLT integration for Roadnet Technologies' fleet management systems. Roadnet Technologies has more than two decades of experience in improving operations for thousands of companies so this cooperation represents an opportunity to offer our solutions to a large installed base of customers,” said Regev Yativ, president and CEO of Magic Software Enterprises Americas.
