    BroadVision platform to standardize the web technology; cut
    operational costs; and to quickly deploy additional websites. They
    chose BroadVision for its scalability, robustness and flexibility. The
    sites also integrated the BroadVision platform with several vertical
    applications, such as a powerful car configurator and the dealer
    localizer.

    Europe," stated Andrea Rubei, Vice President and General Manager of
    Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at BroadVision. "We´ll continue
