systems using their mobile devices or

dont know whether they can access

themor not, only 9 per cent of these were

aware of their companies plans to enable

mobile access to IT systems.

Buck added Enabling secure, mobile ac-

cess to IT systems at any time and from

anywhere delivers efficiency benefits,

enhancing productivity. Having to wait

for staff to be sat in front of their PCs be-

fore they can access corporate systems is

an archaic approach which is stifling for

business.

New Strategic Distribution

Relationship Between Partners

ABBYY announced in February that it

has entered into a new strategic distribu-

tion relationship with Tech Data

Corporation. Under their agreement,

Tech Data will distribute selected

ABBYY products and software support

services through its established network

of value-added Apple and document im-

aging resellers in the United States. In

addition, selected products will be avail-

able from the new StreamOne Solutions

Store an end-to-end supply chain plat-form that, according to Tech Data,

revolutionizes how the channel sells and

distributes software and cloud-based ser-

vices. Included within the distribution

agreement are the ABBYY FineReader

line of Optical Character Recognition

(OCR) products, ABBYY Recognition

Server, the ABBYY Lingvo line of dic-

tionary solutions, and ABBYY PDF

Transformer.

Document imaging is one of todays

most in-demand solutions, and many or-

ganizations identify the managing of

information as being critical to their

long-term growth and ability to scale,

said Wendy Maurer-Linsky, vice presi-

dent of Peripherals Product Marketing

for Tech Data. Document recognition

and document capture technologies are

critical to the information management

process, making ABBYY technology a

natural addition to our offerings. Part-

nering with ABBYY further extends our

world-class solution portfolio, enabling

our network of resellers to increase the

value they provide their customers.

Tech Data says its advanced logistics ca-

pabilities and value-added services

enable more than 125,000 resellers

worldwide to efficiently and

cost-effectively support the diverse

technology needs of end users. Under the

new distribution agreement, the com-

pany believes it will be able to better meet

the demanding document management

and OCR needs of its resellers in the Ap-

ple and document imaging marketsegments, as well as through the

StreamOne platform.

Tech Datas pre-established network of

resellers in the Apple and Document Im-

aging communities allows us to increase

the distribution of our solutions signifi-

cantly, said Bill Kouzi, vice president of

sales, distribution and VAR group at

ABBYY USA. The new relationship

with Tech Data allows us to further pro-vide industry-leading, affordable

document processing, automation, cap-

ture and linguistic technology to users

across numerous verticals, including the

often underserved Mac user community.

Additionally, involvement in the new

StreamOne Solutions Store allows us to

deliver our software electronically, ex-

tending ABBYYs solutions to a new

group of resellers.
