July 2010 - ImageFast signs ReadSoft Platinum Level Partner Agreement

ImageFast, a leading information management consultancy focused on helping organisations capture, control and communicate information has signed a platinum level partnership agreement with ReadSoft, a leading global provider of software solutions for document automation. The partnership entitles ImageFast to sell, configure, install, document and support ReadSoft’s products to companies across industries such as finance, property management, manufacturing, logistics and insurance.

As a supplier of Microsoft SharePoint, ImageFast will offer ReadSoft’s document automation technology to enhance SharePoint’s electronic document management (EDM) capabilities, providing businesses with customisable, best-in-class EDM solutions. ReadSoft seamlessly integrates with SharePoint’s EDM and allows for the delivery of automated document processing and advanced document classification.

Darren Edwards, Managing Director, ImageFast said: “We immediately recognised the value of ReadSoft’s experience in the document automation market and found their products easy to use, functional and most importantly straightforward to set up and integrate with SharePoint.

“This agreement demonstrates the genuine business compatibility of ImageFast and ReadSoft and the considerable results that ReadSoft’s integration with SharePoint can offer customers. As we move forward we expect to develop more solutions to extend our current offerings of Case Management, Complaints Management, Invoice Approval and Contract Management.”

Simon Shorthose, ReadSoft MD, commented: "Partners are very important to our business model. Adding ImageFast as a valued channel partner is key to our strategy and will help us reach our goal of growing our channel business to 80% by 2012.

“The fact that ReadSoft’s solution can be integrated with multiple finance, enterprise resource planning (ERP) and procurement systems, as well as SharePoint, also means we can utilise customers’ existing systems and expand on functionalities, minimising the need for users to relearn a whole new system. I'm certain that by choosing ReadSoft, ImageFast will accelerate their development of information projects to both commercial and public sector organisations."
