Capax Global and Attivio Announce Strategic Reseller Partnership

-- Leader in business technology consulting selects Attivio Active Intelligence Engine® to address the needs of advanced enterprise search and increasing demand for unified information access

NEWTON, Massachusetts, July 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Attivio, creator of the award-winning Active Intelligence Engine (AIE®), has formed a strategic reseller partnership with Capax Global, a recognised leader in enterprise search and critical business technology consulting. The partnership addresses the changing needs of Capax Global's customers as they deal with the widespread shift from traditional enterprise search to unified information access (UIA).

"We have seen a natural shift towards UIA as our enterprise search customers contend with massive volumes of information, coming from multiple sources, in different formats," said John Baiocco, CEO and Managing Director, Capax Global. "Traditional approaches are no longer adequate in dealing with the scale and complexity of enterprise information. Attivio leads the industry in addressing the demands of big data volume, variety, and velocity that our customers face."

With the critical demands placed upon enterprise search over the past five years for faster, more insightful and accurate results, companies are increasingly challenged to keep pace with the growth of their informational environment. They lose competitive advantage when they are unable to access actionable intelligence locked away within all their data sources. The natural evolution of advanced enterprise search and UIA offers customers the opportunity to adopt a more comprehensive approach to integrate, correlate, access and analyse all of their information assets, regardless of source or format.

"Unified information access is the next logical progression beyond enterprise search as companies face unprecedented volumes of disparate information, of which 85 percent or more is unstructured," said David Schubmehl, Research Director at IDC. "Because UIA platforms can integrate large volumes of information across disconnected silos, technologies like AIE have become a key enabler for big data analytics and decision support."

Over 4,500 customers rely on Capax Global for value-added services and for its proven expertise in deriving value from information to solve tough challenges. Capax can now leverage Attivio AIE to empower customers who need to go beyond enterprise search and drive more value from their information assets.

"Attivio was built on the unwavering premise that search, or repackaged iterations of search technologies, are no longer enough for serious enterprise users," said Ali Riaz, President and CEO at Attivio. "Leading global organisations in every industry depend on AIE for solutions that increase sales performance, ensure compliance and improve customer engagement across channels. Capax recognises the power AIE delivers in helping its customers free up information, empower business decision-making and integrate with existing tools for BI data visualisation to transform the way they approach and solve problems."
