Netherlands, February 19th, 2008 - Following
the launch of Immediacy web content management suite (WCMs) 6.0 in
the Benelux market on 29
th January 2008, Mediasurface,
Europe's largest supplier of web content management (WCM) has
signed its first Dutch partner, theFactor.e (TFE). TFE is
already fully trained on the product and ready to begin customer
implementations.
TFE and Mediasurface have for many years enjoyed a good working
relationship for implementing Morello, a powerful and flexible WCM
solution for large organisations with complex web applications.
With Immediacy WCMs 6.0 added to its product portfolio, TFE can now
address the needs of smaller and medium-sized customers through a
rapidly deployed and simple to use content management system.
"We were very impressed with the professionalism and support of the
Immediacy team in the Netherlands and in the UK, “says TFE general
manager Marco de Jong. "We chose Immediacy CMS because of the many
benefits it brings to smaller organisations wanting an affordable,
professional content management solution. It is very easy for
editors to use, with good scope for expansion through standard or
bespoke plug-ins and user-written code. With Immediacy
CMS, we can offer our customers greater flexibility, quality and
ease of use."
Arjen van den Akker, marketing director for Continental Europe at
Mediasurface said:
"Web agencies are looking for reliable and
easy to implement CMS standard software that uses well-known
technologies. It frees up precious manpower that would otherwise be
used for developing and maintaining home grown CMS software or
installing CMS software that requires a lot of consultancy hours.
At the same time, companies and government agencies are looking for
affordable, modern CMS software with a clear price structure,
allowing the content to be maintained by non-technical staff. TFE
has recognised that Immediacy CMS fits perfectly with both their
own needs and those of the market."
Immediacy CMS excels in user-friendliness, rich functionality and
rapid implementation. The product utilises the latest Microsoft
.NET 2/3-technology and is very flexible. Immediacy CMS has
advanced Web 2.0 functionality, 40-plus standard plug-ins and meets
the most stringent accessibility requirements. An active developer
community exists whereby new plug-ins are developed and exchanged.
Hundreds of organisations around the world already make extensive
use of Immediacy CMS every day.
