Systems developer DTI is bucking a trend with the biggest year of installations in its 30-year history.
More than 60 customer sites have gone live across the Asia Pacific, North America, Europe and Latin America, beating a 1999 total driven by Y2K demand. DTI says more than half the implementations were through its Cloud software-as-a-service publishing environment.
"Our record volume of customer go-lives and upgrades reflects a pent-up demand and renewed level of confidence in the competitiveness of news media companies,” says operations vice president Mary Olsen. “DTI Cloud is also proving to be a major boost in our ability to do many of these go-lives and upgrades more efficiently. Our customers are more competitive when they stay current with all of the latest features."
