(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
RDATE:23042008
Nashua, NHand London, UK -- ConverterTechnology, experts in Microsoft
Office deployment and migration projects, today announced a new
partnership with Camwood, the leading application migration
consultancy. Camwood will be using ConverterTechnology's new
OfficeConverter 2007 software solution as part of its end-to-end
consultancy and deployment offerings. The software will enable Camwood
to help large enterprise customers understand the file compatibility
challenges involved with application upgrades, recommend best practice,
reduce risks, and deliver cost saving file remediation functionality.
Tony Probert, Business Development Director for ConverterTechnology
says "Our solution gives Camwood the ability to help UKenterprises more
easily manage their upgrades from older versions of Office to Office
2007, ensuring they maximise their business uptime, information
availability and data security. Efficient and automated migration
processes are things that these companies cannot afford to get wrong."
Camwood provides consultancy based around an application-centric model
across all Microsoft products, including Vista, XP, Office, Softgrid,
SystemCenterand SharePoint 2007. Many of their customers request help
with file migration assessment of Vistaand Office 2007 deployment
projects.
Tony Fones, Professional Services Manager of Camwood said: "We deal
with a number of corporates with a significant portfolio of
applications. The drive is always towards effective application
rationalisation to realise benefits of an effectively managed estate,
reduction in licensing and business benefits of optimising the support
services. Without exception, all of these organisations under-estimate
the impact of data and will commonly miss-out on the full business
benefits of application rationalisation." He continued: "Adding the
software solution from ConverterTechnology to our data migration
framework enables us to proactively drive the business benefits. Couple
this with our accreditation as a Microsoft Desktop Deployment Planning
Services (DDPS) partner, which focuses on removing the deployment
challenges of Vistaand Office 2007, we are able to advise and implement
a full end-to-end migration programme including the data."
Using OfficeConverter 2007, Camwood will be able to advise their
customers on the Microsoft Office data-sets that will run successfully
after their upgrade and which data-sets can be consolidated. Files
which will not open in the Office 2003 or Office 2007 format are
identified by ConverterTechnology's solution and the majority of these
will be automatically fixed and converted. For data-sets that have
extra challenges, Camwood will provide specific added-value services to
remediate the data. Camwood consultants, fully trained in
ConverterTechnology's solution, will be able to provide a complete,
end-to-end service including initial assessment, governance and
rationalisation of data.
Tony Probert concludes: "Our solution is very complimentary to
Camwood's core business focus and this new partnership will bring
increased value to the services they deliver for Office 2007
deployments."
