Certeon Adds 5 Resellers to Partner Acceleration Program
BURLINGTON, Massachusetts, June 19, 2007 - Building on momentum generated
from the announcement of The Certeon Application Acceleration Blueprint for
UGS Solid Edge, Certeon today announced the addition of five new resellers
focused on product lifecycle management (PLM) to its Partner Acceleration
Program. The three new U.S. and two U.K. partners continue Certeon’s
progress in accelerating PLM over the Wide Area Network (WAN) and provides
customers across the globe with the resources to speed PLM deployments.
Certeon has added APlus Integrated Manufacturing Solutions, Aurora Design
& Consultancy, Ingenea Limited, PLM Leader and Nasco Tek as certified
resellers of the Certeon S-Series Application Acceleration Appliance. The
need for digital collaboration and content delivery between distant groups
has increased dramatically among manufacturers and suppliers. Often, remote
locations must connect over WANs to access the central data repository, but
network latency can significantly bog down collaborative design operations
in this situation. By deploying Certeon technologies, these PLM-focused
resellers can help their customers reduce download and assembly times of
large design files to a matter of seconds—and achieve response time
improvements averaging 1,000 percent.
“Manufacturing companies thrive on the collaboration that is the heart of
PLM. But most manufacturers and suppliers are globally distributed, and it
becomes difficult to access the large CAD files often traveling across the
WAN,” said Dennis Pence, president of APlus Integrated Manufacturing
Solutions. “With Certeon’s Application Acceleration Blueprint for Solid
Edge, our customers can turbo-charge application response time across the
WAN—maximizing the PLM infrastructures that drive business.”
Leveraging Certeon’s specific knowledge of the application data, the new
PLM-focused resellers can help their global customers maximize
infrastructure investments. Certeon’s S-Series Appliances enable enterprises
to speed decision making, avoid costly redesign work and increase
productivity by significantly accelerating PLM applications across the WAN.
“The days when our customers’ employees were all centrally located have
disappeared. Product design has gone global,” said Jon Sutcliffe, technical
director of Ingenea Limited. “This global distribution makes collaborative
PLM difficult as large files lag over a WAN. But with Certeon’s
S-Series Application Acceleration Appliances, our customers are uniquely
able to securely and cost-effectively speed PLM collaboration and
development.”
The Certeon S-Series Appliances featuring an Application Acceleration
Blueprint for Solid Edge are currently available. Certeon offers three
models of Application Acceleration Appliances: the S-1000, S-2000 and
S-3000, supporting small branch offices, regional offices and large data
centers, respectively. In addition to the Solid Edge Blueprint, Certeon also
has Application Acceleration Blueprints for the 2007 Microsoft Office,
SharePoint and EMC Documentum & eRoom platforms, as well as SharePoint and
Office 2003.
“Since our announcement of the Application Acceleration Blueprint for
Solid Edge, manufacturing companies have been lining up to optimize their
PLM infrastructures,” said John Lloyd, vice president of business
development for Certeon. “With the addition of these five new high-caliber
resellers, Certeon will be able to effectively meet the swelling demand for
the S-Series appliance and streamline the deployment of PLM applications.”
