KOMpliance Certified With Open Text ECM Suite

KOM Networks announced the certification of KOMpliance with Open Text Archive Server, part of the Open Text ECM Suite. This announcement coincides with KOM Networks achieving Open Text technology partner status.

This KOM Networks partnership with Open Text offers integration of KOMpliance secure online storage with Open Text ECM Suite to provide a flexible foundation for the ECM environment. KOM Networks’ patented eWORM technology and automated retention will provide a secure storage system that is fully integrated at the back-end of the Open Text ECM Suite. Clients will have the ability to improve system performance and streamline electronic business processes with simplified data storage management and high performance data protection at a more affordable price.

"Certifying KOMpliance with the Open Text ECM Suite complements our strategy of offering customers the best solutions to address today’s challenges for the management, access, protection and long-term storage of enterprise-wide content throughout its lifecycle," said Lubor Ptacek, vice president of product marketing at Open Text. "KOMpliance adds a platform and application agnostic storage solution to our repository agnostic approach to ECM, adding value to existing systems and infrastructure, and helping to lower the costs associated with managing and protecting content to meet business, industry and regulatory compliance."

"We are pleased to expand the scope of the collaboration with Open Text; this certification is the start of a very strong commitment to excellence and enhanced customer experience. Today, business demands have evolved; it is not just simply the ability to automate business processes, but rather it encapsulates a fundamental need to provide continuity through sustained accessibility, high performance and more importantly risk management. Data preservation and securing the digital assets to manage liabilities and meet the wide range of regulations and scrutiny is a necessity," says Taher Shaath, CEO at KOM Networks. "Organizations will be able to tap into the wide range of solution offerings and capabilities offered by Open Text and leverage a secure tamper-proof archive platform to capture, create, author, search and retrieve verifiably unaltered data, quickly and effectively."

KOM Networks in joint collaboration with Open Text offers an off-the-shelf archive and storage solution that is platform and application agnostic to easily integrate into any existing infrastructure. It is designed to allow businesses, healthcare and financial organizations, educational institutions, and government agencies to easily meet the increasing requirements of highly regulated archiving and compliance needs without sacrificing their business requirements. The solution provides everything that is needed to archive, protect and retain important data pre-installed, pre-configured and ready to add to any network.

KOM Networks will offer the Junk-A-Juke storage upgrade and recycling program to all Open Text customers around the globe. This program provides a new enterprise class KOMpliance unit, equal in capacity and superior in performance, free of charge with a three year maintenance agreement in exchange for obsolete and legacy storage devices. The old storage units will be picked up and recycled by the company’s ISO certified recycling partner at no cost to the customer assuring that nothing ends up in a landfill.

All proceeds generated from the recycling will be donated to Feed The Children and its affiliate FTC Canada which is active in the Haitian Relief efforts. KOM’s goal is to collect and recycle enough hardware to feed over one million children.
