Hyperwave Selects OpSource for Web Delivery of Innovative On- Demand Conferencing and Collaboration Service
Santa Clara, Calif., August 13, 2008 -- OpSource™, the leader in Web operations, today announced that Hyperwave, a leading provider of Collaborative Information Management (CIM) solutions, has chosen OpSource On-Demand™for scalable delivery of Appswave Conferencing, its new on-demand conferencing service. Hyperwave will leverage OpSource's Web operations to accelerate Appswave time-to-market while significantly reducing its upfront investment in delivery infrastructure.
Appswave Conferencing enables teams to hold online meetings at anytime without the need for extensive planning and set up. It incorporates presence awareness and instant messaging, which keep teams constantly informed of the availability of individual members. Sessions can be recorded and the entire meeting can be archived as a compact file for future review.
Frank Schlingensiepen, Director Web Conferencing of Hyperwave, said, "Knowledge is the intellectual capital, the very lifeblood of every enterprise, so when you look at a Fortune 500 company, there's no problem selling in the need for real-time collaboration. But knowledge is no less critical for the company with 200 to 500 employees, yet they are not prepared to make such an investment. With OpSource On-Demand, we will provide a SaaS version of our conferencing solution, enabling medium-sized businesses to collaborate in real-time so their knowledge can be both shared and expanded upon by others in their organizations."
Richard Dym, CMO of OpSource, said, "Hyperwave's Appswave Conferencing solution brings anywhere, anytime on-demand Web conferencing and knowledge sharing to the mid-market. While the ad-hoc nature of its use makes it a perfect SaaS application, successfully reaching the mid-market requires a reliable and scalable yet economical SaaS delivery solution. We're very pleased that Hyperwave selected OpSource On-Demand as their Web operations solution and we're looking forward to working with them as they bring their enterprise collaborative information management solution to the mid-market."
