Fortune 500 Financial Institution Selects Datawatch For Enterprise Content Management Analytics

CHELMSFORD, Mass., March 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Datawatch Corporation (NASDAQ-CM: DWCH), the leading global provider of information optimization solutions, today announced that a second Fortune 500 financial institution in less than a month has selected Datawatch to deliver on-line analytics for its enterprise content management solution.  For years, organizations have utilized enterprise content management systems to store and archive vast amounts of valuable business documents and reports related to operations, customers and suppliers.  These enterprise content management systems, which could be described as the "original Big Data systems," hold a tremendous amount of analytical value.  Over the last several years, as the trends for faster results and improved decision-making have accelerated, organizations looking to leverage this valuable asset are turning to Datawatch to provide the technology to unlock this value.  This major financial institution chose Datawatch Monarch Professional to replace ASG Software Solutions' DocuAnalyzer in order to modernize the solution and extend the value available from the information stored in its legacy Mobius ViewDirect content management system.

"With all the focus on using Big Data sources, the interest in leveraging the value of the terabytes of information locked in enterprise content management systems is exploding," said Ben Plummer, Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President, Strategic Alliances for Datawatch.  "We have seen this increasing interest not just from customers, but also from the major enterprise content management vendors and implementation partners as well.  With this recent win, our customer not only recognized the added value that Datawatch Monarch Professional provides over DocuAnalyzer, but positioned itself to migrate from the legacy ASG Mobius ViewDirect platform in the future.  Since Datawatch provides the same robust analytics across all enterprise content management systems, and works with leading enterprise content management systems from major vendors such as IBM, EMC, Open Text, Perceptive and Hyland, Datawatch can provide this Fortune 500 financial institution a transition path to a more modern enterprise content management store without needing to retrain their users or reinvest in new technology. "
