Ajax-based RIAs are fast becoming the benchmark for Web application front ends because they provide the best of both worlds: rich and reach. Ajax applications are as rich as desktop applications and highly responsive, and provide all data on a single page without page refreshes.

Backbase provides Ajax software that is standards-based, comprehensive, and easy-to-use.
