"Business is a conversation. Language facilitates change. Conversations form the foundation of future innovation. And more than ever, we are using the Web to host these dialogues. We're connecting through e-mail, discussions, forums, chat rooms — and this is how we get our work done. In fact, all business is essentially a conversation, and Livelink lies at the heart of these conversations. As a highly scalable collaborative knowledge management application, Livelink removes boundaries and connects you to what matters most, people," explained Maher Luqman, Regional Business Development Manager.
"Open Text stands totally committed to the Arabic market, with the Livelink Arabic software being developed completely within the region, using local experts. This means that the software will be in-tune with, and promises to merge seamlessly, with the regional work practices. Open Text has also established a completely professional support infrastructure for all Livelink clients within the region, and will be able to provide them with the best possible back-up and service," continued Luqman.
Latest developments have incorporated Livelink 'Meeting Zone,' a comprehensive collaborative, web-based meeting tool.
"Livelink 'Meeting Zone' is probably the most sophisticated and yet user-friendly web based, real-time, meeting facilitator - that allows meetings to be held with multiple participants, from all around the world, without the need for any travel. Being web-based, it works on most browsers, making it convenient and familiar. Most of the functionality and benefits stem from the powerful 'Livelink' engine, like; support for non-Livelink participants, application sharing, group-chat, whiteboard, archiveable records, transformation of meeting information to a searchable asset, secure sessions, and more," explained Luqman.
Livelink is the world's most widely adopted platform for team and project collaboration, according to a recent report from International Data Corporation (IDC). Open Text currently supports more that 5 million users across the globe, in 35 countries.
Open Text Middle East & Africa operates from its regional headquarter in Dubai, UAE, providing its customers with regional sales & full technical support. Further road shows are planned throughout 2001/2 to demonstrate Livelink, throughout the GCC and Arabic speaking region.
"The results? Well they will speak for themselves - optimized commerce chains, industry processes and relationships with partners and suppliers, improved product delivery and reduced costs, enhanced internal and external communications, increased returns on investment, and... greater productivity and profitability," stated Luqman.
