Dazel Corporation has introduced a new family of products based on the industry-leading Dazel Enterprise Output Management System, which extends the functionality of the Dazel Output Server with version 3.1 by linking producers and consumers of information in and across corporate boundaries.
New report-viewing and distribution products augment a strategic set of network application services that effectively guarantee the reliable delivery and management of reports and documents across the extended enterprise.
Dazel products are represented in South Africa by Software Futures, a member of Computer Configurations Holdings.
"Our enterprise output management infrastructure is a core element of our IT environment because it enables information producers to deliver reports and documents to more destination types worldwide and reduces the time and resources needed to get that information to the right consumers," says Rick Hopper, senior technical specialist, Nortel. "These new additions to the Dazel Enterprise Output Management System have, in effect, raised the business value of our investment in Dazel to a new strategic level."
"This group of new products reaffirms Dazel`s leadership in providing valuable business solutions for customers as their output needs evolve. This is the latest in a series of first-to-market products for the many companies that need to deliver reports and documents reliably in today`s networked world," says Bill Bock, president and CEO of Dazel. "We provided the first distributed output management product, and we were the first to integrate with ERP applications, legacy applications and enterprise systems management products. And now Dazel is the first to provide a strategic infrastructure for that enables the reliable management, tracking, storing, viewing and delivery of business-critical documents and reports."
