Quick Integration Reduces Time-to-Market for Online Campaigns
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CoreMedia, a leading Web Content Management (WCM) company, today announced that Office Depot, Inc., a leading global provider of office products, services, and solutions formed by the merger of Office Depot and OfficeMax, selected CoreMedia LiveContext software to help enhance the customer shopping experience for officedepot.com by streamlining the collaboration between its online authors to ensure faster time-to-market for executing integrated campaigns. CoreMedia LiveContext is designed to enable e-Commerce and marketing professionals to augment their online e-Commerce product catalogs with marketing content to address the needs of their online shoppers.
"As a global company, Office Depot, Inc. is continually seeking opportunities to improve the customer shopping experience on officedepot.com while optimizing the internal processes that support them," said Richard Polly, Senior Director of eCommerce at Office Depot. "CoreMedia's digital engagement solution was a natural fit for us due to its ease of integration into our existing systems and reduced time-to-market."
Late last year and within a short period of time, CoreMedia LiveContext was integrated with the Office Depot product catalog, pricing information and front-end modules, providing business users with a single interface to access this real-time information and blend it with marketing content.

We are very pleased to prove that CoreMedia's experience in integrating with leading e-Commerce vendors could be leveraged with Office Depot's custom e-Commerce solution," said Gerrit Kolb, CEO of CoreMedia.
