"With today's release of Datawatch Enterprise Server - Cloud, we are taking a major step forward in our mission to deliver more valuable information optimization applications to companies of all sizes, and to as many types of users as possible," said Michael A. Morrison, president and CEO of Datawatch. "We firmly believe that being able to deliver data variety in big data applications is the key to successfully understanding what drives your business and we at Datawatch are committed to delivering this functionality to the right users, at the right time, regardless of how they choose to deploy these applications," continued Mr. Morrison.
"Our experience with the beta version of the Datawatch Enterprise Server - Cloud has been very positive and we plan to implement our performance measurement system that we are developing directly into production upon its release," said Brad Long, senior vice president and chief financial officer of First Florida Credit Union. "With Datawatch Enterprise Server - Cloud we will be able to securely deliver information that had previously been locked in static, semi-structured reports and PDF files. Via the cloud we will provide more users with the flexibility they need to analyze this data and gain a deeper understanding of their specific business issues," continued Mr. Long.
Datawatch Enterprise Server - Cloud, which was launched today at Datawatch's worldwide sales kick-off in Waltham, Massachusetts, is available immediately. To enable organizations to truly experience the power of this first-of-a-kind solution, Datawatch is making it available for a no-charge 60-day trial through the Datawatch website or by contacting Datawatch directly at 978-275-8222.
Simultaneously with the announcement of Datawatch Enterprise Server - Cloud, Datawatch also announced today a corporate rebranding initiative to better represent its position as a technological and market leader in the information optimization market. A new image and fresh website were unveiled to highlight the forward-thinking changes like Datawatch Enterprise Server - Cloud that Datawatch is introducing to the market.
"Notwithstanding our success over this past year - Datawatch grew its top line revenue more than 50% through its first three fiscal quarters of fiscal 2012 - our research shows the strategic value of information optimization solutions is not widely recognized yet," said Ben Plummer, chief marketing officer and senior vice president of strategic alliances. He continued, "With high-growth companies like Datawatch and Splunk pioneering this market segment, we see enormous opportunity, but also the need for more straightforward and succinct positioning and messaging. Our brand, our website and our messaging have been re-designed and refreshed to bring greater clarity and focus to information optimization: the ability to leverage all the information inside of an enterprise - structured, semi-structured and unstructured. No other software vendor in the market today can access and analyze the variety of data formats and sources that Datawatch can, and our revitalized messaging and branding underscore our unique position as a technology innovator, as well as the benefits of working with the most experienced solution provider in the industry."
