TheFactor.e Becomes First Dutch Partner for Immediacy

 

Mediasurface (UK, AIM: MSR), Europe’s leading content management solution provider, announced today the signing of its first partner in the Benelux

 

Netherlands, February 19th, 2008 - Following the launch of Immediacy web content management suite (WCMs) 6.0 in the Benelux market on 29th January 2008, Mediasurface, Europe's largest supplier of web content management (WCM) has signed its first Dutch partner, theFactor.e (TFE).  TFE is already fully trained on the product and ready to begin customer implementations.

TFE and Mediasurface have for many years enjoyed a good working relationship for implementing Morello, a powerful and flexible WCM solution for large organisations with complex web applications. With Immediacy WCMs 6.0 added to its product portfolio, TFE can now address the needs of smaller and medium-sized customers through a rapidly deployed and simple to use content management system.

"We were very impressed with the professionalism and support of the Immediacy team in the Netherlands and in the UK, “says TFE general manager Marco de Jong. "We chose Immediacy CMS because of the many benefits it brings to smaller organisations wanting an affordable, professional content management solution.  It is very easy for editors to use, with good scope for expansion through standard or bespoke plug-ins and user-written code.  With Immediacy CMS, we can offer our customers greater flexibility, quality and ease of use."

Arjen van den Akker, marketing director for Continental Europe at Mediasurface said:

 

"Web agencies are looking for reliable and easy to implement CMS standard software that uses well-known technologies. It frees up precious manpower that would otherwise be used for developing and maintaining home grown CMS software or installing CMS software that requires a lot of consultancy hours. At the same time, companies and government agencies are looking for affordable, modern CMS software with a clear price structure, allowing the content to be maintained by non-technical staff. TFE has recognised that Immediacy CMS fits perfectly with both their own needs and those of the market."

Immediacy CMS excels in user-friendliness, rich functionality and rapid implementation. The product utilises the latest Microsoft .NET 2/3-technology and is very flexible. Immediacy CMS has advanced Web 2.0 functionality, 40-plus standard plug-ins and meets the most stringent accessibility requirements. An active developer community exists whereby new plug-ins are developed and exchanged. Hundreds of organisations around the world already make extensive use of Immediacy CMS every day.
