Tech Data France Selects Nuance PDF Converter Professional to Streamline Digital Document Workflows
Nuance PDF Solutions Deliver ‘Better PDF for Business’, Providing Tech Data with the Price, Performance and Features Needed to put PDF on Every Business Desktop
Paris, FRANCE, June 23, 2008 – Nuance Communications (NASDAQ: NUAN), a leading provider of speech and imaging solutions, announced today that Tech Data France, one of the largest distributors of technology products in Europe, has selected Nuance PDF Converter Professional Enterprise Edition as their desktop PDF standard. PDF Converter Professional provides organizations with everything they need to create, convert and edit PDF documents, and has quickly become the #1 alternative to Adobe Acrobat.
Like many businesses, office workers at Tech Data are constantly creating, using and sharing documents with colleagues and customers – from sending out sales quotes to developing reports and responding to formal correspondence. As a result, the PDF format provides Tech Data with important document workflow capabilities, such as the same-as-paper representation of online documents, assurance that the recipient will be able to view and print the document, and the ability to add security features to the document, including passwords and permissions.
Until recently the challenge with using PDF in office settings came from the price of desktop PDF applications – they simply were too expensive to put on every business desktop. Nuance PDF Converter Professional, and Nuance’s full range of ‘Better PDF for Business’ solutions, overcomes this challenge, resulting in more than 2 million seats of Nuance PDF applications deployed worldwide.
"After assessing several PDF desktop applications, we found that PDF Converter Professional from Nuance delivers all of the rich PDF features we need in a desktop application, and at a fraction the cost of alternatives," said Osée Benizri, Marketing Director Tech Data France. "Nuance has not only created a great PDF product, their PDF Site License Program is unique in its affordability and flexibility, letting us deliver the productivity benefits of PDF to our entire staff."
"PDF has moved from being a niche technology that could be priced at a premium to a digital document standard that has to be affordable enough for everyone to use,” said Robert Weideman, senior vice president of EMEA marketing for Nuance. "Our goal is to become the standard for business PDF, and we will accomplish that goal by continuing to deliver affordable, high-quality PDF products that have business features not found in alternatives."
Tech Data joins a growing list of leading organizations that have selected Nuance for PDF, including Airbus, Air Liquide, Banca D’Espagna, Bank of Austria, BASF, Best, Best & Kreiger, LLP, EDF Energy, HP, PSA Peugeot Citroen, RATP, Sanofi Aventis, Siemens, The Gillette Company, Total, Unicredit Group, US Attourney's Office, and Wells Fargo.
