Today’s enterprise relies on information as it drives customer communication, cross-selling opportunities, customer service and back office operations. Enabled by the growth of multi channel communications companies are taking advantage of integrating, composition and archiving to concisely deliver actionable information to the right people, at the right time, in the preferred channel of choice. GMC’s solutions make it easy to design and implement personalized communications applications, with a full range of data handling, layout, graphical workflow, color management, content collaboration, approval and proofing, and message management capabilities. RSD Folders enables the efficient capture, storage, retrieval and accurate classification of content generated by any application. The partnership between RSD and GMC allows companies to deploy an end-to-end document automation and archiving solution.
A major telecommunications company recently deployed the joint solution to efficiently compose, distribute, and archive all customer statements. They were looking for an end-to-end platform for producing and archiving 5 million personalized documents a month and kept for seven years. In addition, they needed to integrate the statements into their Web portal for secure and high-speed access. With the joint RSD/GMC solution in place, the telecommunications company can now effectively manage the entire document lifecycle, from creation, production, distribution, as well as storage, retrieval and reuse.
“We are very pleased to have GMC as part of RSD’s partner ecosystem since many companies are looking to improve how they create and manage information,” says Didier Basset, Vice President of Partner Eco System at RSD. “RSD helps companies dramatically decrease the cost of complying with ever-changing regulatory requirements that often vary by geographical locations.”
“The partnership with RSD is very complimentary, as it improves how companies communicate with their customers,” said Hansruedi Jörg, Vice President, Worldwide Business Development at GMC Software Technology. “GMC helps customers deliver customer communications via multiple channels with cross-channel integration in a consistent and coordinated way while RSD allows them to remain compliant.”
