IntraLinks Introduces Expanded Platform That Will Further Enhance Effective Business Process Collaboration and Workflow Capabilities

NEW YORK, April 19, 2010 /PRNewswire/ --

- IntraLinks' Latest Offerings are Available Following the Recent Unveiling of a new Integration Technology and Multi-lingual Platform

IntraLinks, the leading provider of critical information exchange solutions, today announced an enhanced version of its business process collaboration platform, which will be immediately available to its customers. IntraLinks' customers in industries ranging from life sciences, legal and energy to alternative investments and investment banking already reap the benefits of being able to securely manage content and collaborate both inside and outside the firewall and will now also enjoy new capabilities that further accelerate crucial business processes and workflow capabilities. The new enhancements are being brought to market following IntraLinks' recent release of new integration technologies - the IntraLinks API, IntraLinks Integration Adaptor and IntraLinks Connectors - and a multi-lingual platform.

"Companies that are working on highly confidential projects, such as a merger, acquisition or clinical trial, gain a significant competitive advantage from utilizing SaaS platforms that enable efficient and secure communication and collaboration," says Melissa Webster, IDC's Program Vice President, Content and Digital Media Technologies. "By moving processes online, users can capture critical information and the associated knowledge inherent in the workflow that is crucial for reaching appropriate decisions and operating more quickly. A platform that can enable and capture the collaboration and perspective both within and among companies provides knowledge that becomes a powerful source of new and fresh ideas for all organizations involved in the process."

The IntraLinks platform already provides highly cost-effective and unique capabilities that enable organizations to access, control and collaborate on critical, highly sensitive information, while maintaining the underlying business structure needed to make accountable decisions and meet legal and regulatory requirements. Highlights of the improved platform include:

- Expands IntraLinks' content management capabilities to manage, control, modify, and publish content. This provides a base level of control needed to satisfy many regulatory and data governance requirements and greatly increases the ability to capture information about content and to use it for driving business processes.

    - Extends IntraLinks' capabilities to support more flexible, event driven
      workflow processes, providing organizations with the ability to create
      secure, online processes that reflect and accelerate real world
      business needs.

    - Improves IntraLinks' collaborative capabilities with the ability to
      share information across exchanges and new capabilities to integrate
      with other business systems, enabling the sharing of large amounts of
      information and management of end-to-end business processes.

    - Provides better reporting, yielding deeper and improved insight into
      the status and progress of critical business processes, helping to
      identify and circumvent bottlenecks in the collaborative effort.

    - Improves the user experience and provides more self service
      administrative capabilities enabling users to be more productive and
      efficient in their working environment.

"The new IntraLinks platform is our most important release to date because it comes at a time when the global economic downturn has accelerated demand for tools that deliver powerful enterprise-class solutions both inside and outside company walls," says Andrew Damico, president and CEO of IntraLinks. "As businesses embrace collaborative platform technologies and solutions, mutual access to critical content, secure exchange of information and organization of documents is fundamental for extending the value chain to customers, suppliers and partners. Our core enhancements in all capability areas are crucial for true business process collaboration."

IntraLinks will provide demos of its enhanced platform at the AIIM Expo and Conference in Philadelphia, PA, from April 20 - 22, 2010. IntraLinks will be exhibiting at booth #2241.
