INTERSOFT PRESENTER^TM
FEB’09 CTP – THE NEXT REVOLUTION OF DATA PRESENTATION

Unlike any data presenter tools available in the industry,
Intersoft Presenter^TM offers a unique experience. Not only it benefits end users
with its sleek UI and UX, but also developers with its declarative data binding
support. It helps you cut hundreds lines of codes while at the same achieving
better results, such as faster performance and integrated state management.
This will significantly increase your productivity and thus enable you to
deliver your line-of-business Silverlight application faster.

In addition to its powerful databinding capability, Intersoft Presenter^TM also
introduces hybrid-view technology with automatic synchronization. Offering 3
built-in views in Feb’09 CTP, end user can switch between different views
through a sleek slider-style UX. Intersoft Presenter^TM intelligently maintains
the view state as you interact with it.
