Magic Software partner Eclipse Learner Systems Limited gaat voor 1 miljoen dollar aan applicaties leveren aan diverse onderwijsinstellingen in Engeland. Het betreft hier het pakket Eclipse, een volledig geïntegreerd studenten management en ?administratie systeem gebouwd met Magic Software's software ontwikkelomgeving eDeveloper.
Het voordeel voor Eclipse Learner Systems om deze applicatie in Magic te ontwikkelen is het feit dat de onderwijswereld constant blijft veranderen.
Het pakket moet dus gemakkelijk en snel zijn aan te passen. Steve Sanders, directeur van Eclipse Learner Systems, claimt dat het doorvoeren van aanpassingen in het pakket 50% sneller gaat met Magic eDeveloper dan met andere, vergelijkbare, ontwikkelomgevingen.
