Integrated Media Management Standardizes on Autonomy for Customer Interaction Solution
Monday 28. July 2008 - Extends OEM Partnership; Uses Cardiff's Intelligent Document Solution to Move Paper-Based Processes Online for Financial Institutions
Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise today announced that Integrated Media Management(R) (IMM), a leading document output management and automation technology provider, has integrated Cardiff’s intuitive eForm designer platform as the de facto standard for its document preparation and electronic signature capture solution, TotaleAtlas, helping to electronically streamline historically paper-based document processes for more than 600 financial institutions. IMM has been a long-standing OEM customer of Autonomy for more than six years.
Cardiff’s LiquidOffice eForm Designer is a drag and drop application that provides an intuitive, easy to use interface for novice form designers, while offering powerful tools, such as “snap-to” guides and point-and-click database lookups, for more advanced form designers. It also supports distributed form design to provide end-users with the ability to easily create and publish rich online forms and comes with a wide selection of sample forms and a Gallery of pre-made form and field templates. Custom form elements can be created and saved into the Gallery, facilitating corporate standards for forms creation and design.
“IMM takes a tremendous amount of pride in providing the industry’s best document preparation and electronic signature capture solution to our customers in the financial industry,” said John Levy, executive vice president of IMM. “That’s why we take extra care when selecting our partners. After an extensive evaluation of the form design technologies in the market, we found that Cardiff LiquidOffice provides the most comprehensive capabilities and the best ease-of-use that our customers need within our TotaleAtlas product. Autonomy is clearly the leader in its space and we are pleased to extend our partnership with them.”
TotaleAtlas is part of IMM’s TotaleWorks suite of software products for document output and signature capture. The suite also includes TotaleChecks and TotaleReceipts. TotaleAtlas provides users with a document preparation engine that merges XML data and PDF documents. The process is initiated by the core processor and all fields that are not populated from the core database can be filled in on screen prior to electronically signing and printing of the document.
“In the highly-competitive financial services industry, it is particularly vital for organizations in the sector to have the right technologies to help them deliver the best customer service,” said Mark Seamans, CEO of Autonomy Cardiff. “We are pleased that IMM has chosen Cardiff LiquidOffice’s eForm platform as the de facto standard for TotaleAtlas.”
The Cardiff Intelligent Document suite, of which LiquidOffice is a key component, automates all aspects of paper, online and mobile-based document-centric business processes. Cardiff delivers significant cost reduction, accelerated processes and an improved customer experience by taking formerly static documents and enabling them to ‘process themselves’ through the introduction of embedded intelligence.
