FatWire Named An Innovative Information Access Company To Watch

Nov 9, 2009
Mineola, NY – November 9, 2009 – FatWire Software, the largest independent Web Experience Management (WEM) provider, today announced that the company has been named one of 2009’s innovative information access companies under $100M to watch by IDC, an independent research provider of market intelligence, advisory services, and events for the information technology, telecommunications, and consumer technology markets.

IDC's "Companies to Watch" reports are a qualitative evaluation of a set of vendors within a specific market. In this report, IDC reviewed solutions from technology vendors with less than $100 million in revenue and named those that are driving innovation in information access. These innovators include in their technologies features such as:

• User interfaces requiring little or no training and incorporating Web 2.0 and social networking capabilities.
• Unified management of and access to all information types — both data and content — across applications and repositories.
• Intelligent process automation software that automates repeatable, operational decisions within business process sets in response to events where analytics drives the workflow.

Information access encompasses markets for business intelligence, data warehousing, data integration, search and discovery, and content management (including enterprise content management, web content management (WCM), records management, and digital asset management) software. IDC recognized FatWire based on its advanced WCM solutions, including its core FatWire Content Server offering.

“The ability to harness information in the enterprise will be a key differentiator for organizations in the next five years,” says Henry Morris, senior VP, Worldwide Software and Services. “Contributing to this innovation is a group of small companies with the vision and technology to have an impact on the IT marketplace.”

“We are thrilled that IDC has recognized FatWire for its next-generation technologies and progressive vision,” states Loren Weinberg, FatWire senior vice president of marketing and product management. "This recognition validates FatWire’s ongoing commitment to provide enterprises with the solutions they need to use the web as a driver of their competitive differentiation and business success."
