Three New Partners Sign Up for Immediacy

 

Immediacy, part of the Mediasurface group, Europe’s leading content management solution provider, today announced three new partner signings with web design agencies Mando Group, OCS Consulting and XM London.

 

4th February. Immediacy, one of the leading UK content management solution providers (part of the Mediasurface group (UK, AIM: MSR) has strengthened its channel with the announcement of three new partnership agreements with Mando Group, XM London, and OCS Consulting. Under the partnership, the web design agencies will complement their offerings by reselling Immediacy Web Content Management suite (WCMs) 6.0.

 

The need for web design consultancies to combine additional revenue generation with cost reductions makes supporting bespoke CMS increasingly costly and is driving the growing demand to work with specialist web content management solutions like Immediacy WCMs 6.0. Attracted by built in web 2.0 functions such as RSS, OpenSearch, Robot.txt, PDF output and blog capabilities, web design consultancies are choosing to exploit the reliable and user-friendly tools of Immediacy WCM 6.0, which leaves them free to develop a full web package completed by their own specialist skills. The four new Immediacy partners share a common goal; to present clients with the highest quality core CMS product with enhanced search engine optimization (SEO), personalization and compliance features, plus Microsoft SharePoint Services (MOSS 2007) integration, all built into their own customized solution.

 

Mando Group has successfully delivered over 700 websites since 1997 to a range of customers including Health and Safety Executive, Liverpool Culture Company and Capcom Europe. Specializing in usability and e-commerce, Mando Group will use WYSIWYG editing, drag and drop from Microsoft Word® and Excel® features of Immediacy to further enhance the flexibility of their client design and application development solutions.

 

OCS Consulting plc, an independent leading UK IT Consultancy will use Immediacy WCMs 6.0 to ensure the quality and scalability of customer websites throughout the application lifecycle. Combining OCS' extensive design and application development experience and Immediacy's powerful CMS will deliver quality, accessible websites in a timely, cost effective way that has already achieved outstanding results for clients that include AVIS and the British Council.

 

Part of WPP, one of the world’s largest media groups, XM London has specialized as a digital agency for nearly 15 years, working with leading CMS products to deliver outstanding projects to major blue-chip clients. With accessibility and usability a critical factor for all XM London’s online projects, the agency was attracted to Immediacy WCMs 6.0 for its renowned ease of use and built-in Accessibility Checker

 

Andy Peart, Marketing Director for Immediacy comments;

 

‘Immediacy WCMs 6.0 is ideal for web and design agencies as it helps them deliver to clients outstanding websites built on expertly developed content management software, that are topped with their own in house design and production skills. These four new partnerships highlight the growing demand for businesses to offer up-to-date, personalized information on the web, so we are constantly evolving our WCM to include the latest software innovations and give our partners clear differentiation against the competition.’
