Dimension Data Holdings, plc, a leading technology services company providing infrastructure and multi-channel solutions to global corporations, announced today that it has named Documentum, the leading provider of enterprise content management, to its global alliance programme. Dimension Data has been deploying multiple Documentum solutions to Global 1000 clients for two years.
"We`re extremely honoured to be awarded this status by a company with Dimension Data`s depth of experience delivering complex Web-based content management solutions to the Global 1000," said Dave De Walt, president and CEO of Documentum. "With Dimension Data`s work in helping companies define the connectivity and integration strategies to compete and maximise the value of their IT and business assets, we feel the relationship will also help us continue to develop our software ahead of client needs."
Documentum meets Dimension Data`s high standards for Global Solutions Partner status and was a natural first choice to formalise the programme. A partner must be recognised as a market leader, carry the weight to create global standards in its category, provide a technology that is strategically aligned with Dimension Data`s offerings to Global 1000 companies, and have repeatedly been selected and deployed by Dimension Data professionals worldwide.
Dimension Data awards select companies within a category to its Global Solutions Partner status. Companies that are approved as a partner agree to provide joint business development, marketing and training efforts.
"Our experience using Documentum`s technologies time and time again has proven the company`s global leadership position in content management software is well deserved," said Richard Came, CEO of Dimension Data`s global strategic development group. "We`re continually impressed with the software`s ability to easily integrate with legacy technologies as well as the flexibility to develop and extend its capabilities to customise our solutions."
Dimension Data deployed the Documentum software for clients in such industries as energy, healthcare and business services. Dimension Data`s experience with application development and integration allowed it to expand the content management capabilities of Documentum software giving business users the ability to manage more complex and more diverse content in a single given page.
Industry experts and media have also praised Documentum for its advanced capabilities and leadership role. In 2001, Forrester Research Group, Patricia Seybold, Network Computing and CMP Media`s Business Intelligence Group recognised Documentum as one of the top three providers of content management software.
