Share:
LONDON, Nov. 6-- Mobius Management Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:MOBI), a leading provider of integrated solutions for enterprise archiving and records management, today announced a reseller agreement with Avitis, a prominent value-added integrator headquartered in Paris. Under the terms of the agreement, Avitis will resell Mobius software in French-speaking countries across Europe.
The partnership with Avitis reflects Mobius's strategy to grow its French- speaking customer base and expand its indirect sales channel during 2007. With twenty-five years of leadership in high-volume archive and retrieval systems, Mobius is well positioned to take advantage of the growth in the market for integrated content archiving and records management solutions.
Mobius solutions manage the entire lifecycle of information -- from the moment it is created until it is no longer needed -- and guarantee its long- term integrity and availability, both to meet the operational needs of the business and to ensure legal and regulatory compliance. Mobius's flagship product, ViewDirect®, captures, indexes, stores, transforms, delivers and disposes of digital information from any source. It functions as both a long- term repository and a real-time engine for Web delivery of document-based content. ViewDirect manages billions of items as the "archive of record" for leading companies worldwide.
Karry Kleeman, Mobius senior vice president for Europe, Middle East and Africa, explains: "Mobius recognizes the importance of expanding our indirect channel as we continue to gain momentum in Europe. Forging an alliance with a successful partner such as Avitis will strengthen our presence in a growing market. I am looking forward to leveraging the skills and strengths of Avitis to add value to our existing French-speaking customer base and to further penetrate the French-speaking European market."
Commenting on the partnership, Cyril Chiche, operations director for Avitis, said: "Avitis offers a breadth of skills and expertise that will complement the Mobius solution set. We are already seeing great success working with Mobius. The French-speaking European market has a real need for integrated archiving solutions, especially with the increased need for compliance. Mobius offers the most scalable and robust solution that we have seen and our partnership is an exciting opportunity for both organizations."
Avitis and Mobius will host a half-day seminar at the Intercontinental Hotel in Paris on 21st November at 9.30 am. Agenda topics include the strategies and technologies necessary to manage increasing volumes of information and will feature customer case studies by Casino and BNP Paribas.
