NetNumber’s TITAN Platform Provides Integrated Applications for Cost-effective, Service-chained Signaling Solution

LOWELL, Mass. (PRWEB) January 17, 2018

NetNumber, Inc. today announced Teleena, a global enabler of IoT and Mobility solutions, has selected its TITAN Centralized Signaling and Routing Control (CSRC) platform with both the Signaling Transfer Point (STP) and Diameter Signaling Controller (DSC) applications. NetNumber recently completed a successful Proof of Concept for Teleena, meeting the requirements for an integrated STP and Diameter solution that enables a cost-effective, service-chained signaling solution to address current and emerging business opportunities.

“NetNumber was selected by Teleena after a demanding technical and functional investigation,” explained Kim Bybjerg, Chief Executive Officer at Teleena. “Teleena has an exciting roadmap of features where NetNumber’s TITAN platform will be key to deliver success, examples being our global MVNE PoP schedule and our IMSI merchant ecosystem, which will globally optimize our IoT proposition to fulfil the local needs of IoT in a multiple territory environment. We are looking forward to the cooperation and long-term business relationship that lies ahead.”

“The future of networks for signaling and routing needs to embrace a centralized provisioning, distributed data, protocol-agnostic approach in order to truly evolve into the next-generation of networks,” said Matt Rosenberg, Senior Vice President, NetNumber Global Sales. “NetNumber is delivering innovative solutions to help enablers, such as Teleena, address the dual challenges of transitioning from legacy technologies to next-generation IP networks, while dealing with an ever-increasing signaling load brought on by new devices and new services on the network.”

The NetNumber TITAN CSRC platform virtualizes more than twenty network functions, including the STP, DSC, HSS, HLR and Number Portability on the signaling control infrastructure. Multi-country enablers, such as Teleena, deploy TITAN as a single, common platform and simply add these virtualized network functions as needed. Centralized provisioning and management, and a powerful distributed, in-memory subscriber database enables all signaling processing to happen at the optimal location in the network—the core or the edge, for maximum flexibility. TITAN provides a programmable, customer-defined service logic execution environment, so every network function deployed on the platform can have the same user interface. The NetNumber TITAN platform allows enablers to rapidly deploy next-generation services, such as VoLTE/VoWifi, Private LTE networks, Mobile Edge Computing, IoT/M2M and 5G.

AirConnect Access™ gives ViewHub™ users the ability to connect, view, share, and virtually point at content whether in-room or working as a remote participant or team.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (PRWEB) January 17, 2018

T1V announces a new set of features for its ViewHub BYOD (bring your own device) wireless presentation solution, making collaboration in-room and amongst global teams easier than ever. ViewHub allows participants to wirelessly broadcast content from their device screen to the shared ViewHub display. ViewHub is a wireless presentation tool designed for presenting and collaborating on digital content shared from mobile devices like laptops, tablets, or smartphones. ViewHub is offered at an all new price point competitive with other wireless presentation products that do not offer remote capabilities.

Unlike most wireless presentation systems on the market, ViewHub delivers a more robust experience for remote participants - making ViewHub a best-in-class collaboration tool for teams who support colleagues across different locations. Remote participants can view the ViewHub session and share their device screens to the ViewHub session from any network in the world. This is all done using T1V’s AirConnect application, which is free to download for all users and supports Apple macOS, iOS, Windows, Android, and Linux devices.

“Everything we do at T1V is ‘Built for BYOD™’ - and ViewHub is a perfect example of that effort. We’ve made a very conscious decision to support all the different devices and platforms that people use today - we like to consider ourselves completely agnostic in that sense…” says Jim Morris, T1V CTO. He continues, …”this enables anyone using our collaboration platform to use the devices they are already familiar with - meaning more efficient meetings with quick start times, and zero to little training required.”

AirConnect Access provides remote participants the same ViewHub experience they would have in room, allowing remote participants to view, share, and virtually point at the ViewHub interface. This is particularly useful for remote participants who, when all on a conference call discussing a shared piece of content, can now view the shared ViewHub content, share their own content, and virtually point to their talking area to help team members follow the conversation. AirConnect is the only solution on the market that allows all Apple macOS, iOS, Windows, and Android platforms to mirror their screen when connecting remotely.

“We’re excited to introduce ViewHub at an all new price point that will allow education and enterprise customers to scale their visual collaboration offerings considerably…”, says Adam Loritsch, T1V Vice President of Sales and Marketing. He continues, “...our range of solutions offers a single experience to all of our customers, so it’s easy to get started with ViewHub and upgrade to a more interactive solution, like ThinkHub, while still providing that single, intuitive experience to the end user…”

For details on new ViewHub pricing, please contact T1V at sales@t1v.com, or visit t1v.com/ViewHub for more information on ViewHub features and benefits.

Pyroll Packages Becomes First Flexographic Printer to Achieve PANTONE Certified Printer Status

Following pilot, the program will be extended for other Pyroll facilities in Finland.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (PRWEB) January 17, 2018

X-Rite Incorporated, a global leader in color science and technology, and its subsidiary Pantone LLC, today reported that Finnish company Pyroll Packages is the first flexographic printer worldwide to achieve PANTONE Certified Printer status. The initial certification audit was conducted at the company’s location at Joensuu, one of ten locations across the country. Pyroll plans to continue this program in 2018. The certification was carried out by X-Rite Solutions Architect Mark Gundlach and International Technical Support and Application Expert Maxim Siniak together with Certified Pantone Partner and packaging repro house Flexolahti Oy and X-Rite dealer KTA Oy.

The PANTONE Certified Printer Program reviews and analyzes every aspect of a printer’s color operations – from preflight, to file preparation and proofing, to ink formulation and mixing, and to process control in the pressroom. Pyroll’s certification confirms the company’s ability to consistently achieve the most stringent customer color requirements, efficiently and cost effectively. PANTONE Certified Printer Program requires annual recertification to ensure continued performance at peak levels.

“Our goal was to establish a more stringent color management program, expanding beyond visual evaluation to using instruments and digital standards,” said Mikael Svennas, Pyroll Packages’ CEO. “The PANTONE Certified Printer process was very thorough, and we learned a great deal. In addition to the process improvements we will achieve as a result of the audit, we will also be able to leverage Pantone’s brand recognition adding even more credibility to our market position.”

Flexolahti Oy, an active member of the Finnish Flexographic Association, has raised awareness in Finland about the value of X-Rite solutions as a solid foundation for color management standardization. “We’ve seen X-Rite and Pantone solutions become the de facto standard in Finland with great results,” commented Kai Tornikoski, Managing Director. “We were pleased to work with X-Rite color experts to help Pyroll achieve this prestigious status and to further elevate awareness of the importance of a formalized color management program. In an environment where supply chains are complex, deadlines are tight, and errors and rework are not acceptable, PANTONE Certified Printer status gives Pyroll’s customers peace of mind that their packages will be produced as expected, giving them faster time to market and improved shelf appeal.”

To boost its overall performance and meet certification criteria, Pyroll has added the following X-Rite products to the Joensuu site:

  •     ColorCert Suite, including ColorCert Master, Pressroom and ScoreCard Server. The ColorCert Suite enables the packaging industry to better manage the complexities of CMYK, Expanded Gamut, and Spot Color workflows, regardless of the printing process, substrate, or industry standard. Its modular set of tools streamline communications, provide actionable data and enable better utilization of existing people, processes and technologies.
  •     X-Rite eXact, a handheld spectrophotometer combining industry-leading functionality with an easy-to-use interface for controlling, managing, and communicating color across the entire color workflow with embedded PantoneLIVE access.
  •     InkFormulation Software, a fast, accurate, consistent ink formulation, formula creation, storage, approval and retrieval solution for offset, flexo, gravure and screen-printing inks. InkFormulation Software is PantoneLIVE compatible.
  •     NetProfiler, a cloud-based blend of software and color standards for verifying and optimizing performance of color measurement devices, reducing variance among instruments. As Pyroll rolls out the PANTONE Certified Printer Program to additional locations, this capability becomes even more critical.
  •     PantoneLIVE, a cloud-based architecture that enables digital specification and communication of Pantone standards to all stakeholders in the global supply chain. With centralized digital color standards and spectral values, everyone accesses and utilizes the same Pantone color libraries creating unsurpassed color consistency and a new way to manage, and communicate color.

On-site training and help with the creation of Standard Operation Procedures (SOPs) was provided to Pyroll staff to ensure smooth implementation of all recommended new processes.

“In addition to an improved ability to better communicate with brands and standardize color processes, this certification also provides a way for printers and converters to transform their entire production process, from file reception to ink formulation and final output,” added Maxim Siniak, “It offers a distinct sales and marketing advantage. The PANTONE Certified Printer Program is the one certification program that can fundamentally change how a printer or converter does business, improving quality, productivity and very important profitability.”

About PantoneLIVE

PantoneLIVE is a cloud-based solution that enables the universal PANTONE Color language to be accurately communicated across the entire packaging workflow – from design concept to retail store shelves. PantoneLIVE extends the PANTONE PLUS SERIES Color Library, mapping critical color information to packaging-specific substrates. The PantoneLIVE ecosystem is supported by licensed hardware and software that enables each area of a packaging supply chain to access the same PantoneLIVE Colors, in addition to brand specific palettes. This results in consistent and repeatable color across product families, regardless of media or print technology, providing a cohesive brand approach.

Vasari Energy is poised to enter Vietnam’s solar energy market, with plans to build and operate four new projects over the next two years.

IRVINE, Calif. (PRWEB) January 17, 2018

Vasari Energy, an Irvine, CA-based clean energy company, is poised to enter Vietnam’s solar energy market, with plans to build and operate four new projects over the next two years. According to Zhen Han, Executive Vice President, Financing and Strategy, Vasari’s plans in Vietnam call for the construction of two land-based and two floating solar plants, each generating between 40 and 50 megawatts of power, for a total solar energy generation capacity of between 180 and 200 megawatts of power.

The Vasari announcement comes after Vietnam confirmed the implementation a long-anticipated feed-in-tariff (FiT) program, which guarantees that electricity generated through these operations will be purchased by the Vietnam Electricity Corporation (EVN). The EVN is the sole utility operator in Vietnam, purchasing and distributing all energy generated throughout the country. Introduced in April 2017, FiTs will be in effect through June, 2019.

Vasari Energy is working with local development partners and will finance the projects with its own equity, and may include debt financing backed by a U.S. government agency. The projects are currently in the early stages of development. Ultimately, the projects will require federal approval. Once the initial project approvals are granted, the power purchase agreements issued by Vietnam’s Ministry of Industry and Trade will be valid for 20 years.

eApps Hosting announced the launch of Resource Monitoring as an included service for users of it’s Virtual Cloud platform. The service monitors and records the usage of computing resources, in real time, and triggers alerts when user defined thresholds are exceeded.

NORCROSS, Ga. (PRWEB) January 17, 2018

eApps Hosting recently launched an advanced Resource Monitoring service, designed to ensure that virtual cloud servers are performing as expected. The service checks the actual usage of CPU, RAM, Disk, and data traffic ports at frequent intervals, and can send alerts to defined recipients when usage of any resource exceeds specified thresholds. The service is included at no extra charge with the purchase of an eApps Virtual Cloud Server subscription. A reasonably priced managed service option, called First Responder, is available for customers that want the 24/7 eApps Support team to take action within minutes if the monitor issues an alert.

The two significant advantages of the Resource Monitoring service are that it operates in real time, and it can be administered by a non-technical user. The service captures usage data for each key Virtual Cloud server resource every few minutes, and proactively issues alerts when resources are out of tolerance. It also provides current and recent usage information in a highlighted format. Historical usage, for up to three months, is provided in graphical form for easy analysis. Users can select thresholds and define users and groups to receive alerts. With the First Responder option, users can provide specific instructions to eApps Support for the handling of alerts.

When used in conjunction with the free, included Uptime Monitoring service, eApps provides a complete set of tools to monitor the health and availability of Virtual Cloud servers. For customers that seek a higher level of care, the reasonably priced First Responder managed service option provides peace of mind that issues will be handled quickly and effectively.

The Resource Monitoring service is a product of eApps Hosting. The eApps Virtual Cloud Platform, running on high performance servers, network, and SSD storage, is available in multiple US data centers.

Bricata Unveils New Network Security Dashboard for Better Cyber Alert Triage and Threat Hunting

Improved Metadata and Intelligent Packet Capture Associated with Security Alerts Provides Better Means to Visualize Scope, Severity and Conduct Event Correlation

COLUMBIA, Md. (PRWEB) January 17, 2018

Bricata, Inc., a developer of next-generation network intrusion detection and prevention solutions (IDS/P), today announced a new dashboard capability that provides security operations centers (SOCs) with greater detail about network events and the ability to correlate that information with security alerts.

The latest edition of Bricata keeps a record of network transactions and associates them with security alerts to better understand which devices are communicating via what protocols and what they were doing. What this means conceptually, is that if a user downloads malware, this data helps the SOC very quickly and neatly answer critical triage questions including:

  •     What behavior did the user exhibit prior to the infection?
  •     What other network devices did the infected machine call next?
  •     Is this threat spreading, and if so, how and where?

“Many of the cybersecurity tools implemented today seem to treat the alert as an end, but the reality is the alert is just the beginning. It can easily take hours, sometimes even days, to collect the information necessary to discern the difference between true and false positives,” said Bricata CEO John Trauth. “What Bricata is doing is intelligently collecting just the relevant information so the SOC can quickly determine the scope and severity of a security alert.”

Research shows large enterprises, like financial services institutions, can easily have 25 or more security tools issuing in excess of 100,000 security alerts every day. Despite the promise of security analytics, security information and event correlation have proven exceedingly challenging, in the absence of session and network metadata, of the type and quality Bricata provides. This results in a deluge of alerts that overwhelm the resources of even the most sophisticated business leaving it vulnerable.

The data Bricata is providing with this latest update supports both proactive and reactive strategies for cybersecurity assurance. The network monitoring solution examines traffic traversing a corporate network inside the firewall with three different detection engines as part of a layered security defense.

Notably, it also supports proactive threat hunting, for example when Bricata detects network behavioral anomalies – an accounting server suddenly calling up a larger number of network devices than usual – it captures session level data for security personnel to easily and immediately examine as part of a rapid investigation.

Among the new features and enhancements included in this software release are the following:

1) New network metadata dashboard for threat hunting.

The dashboard provides a visualization of the data associated with a network security alert. For example, if a user downloads a file convicted as malware, the dashboard helps the SOC understand what transactions led to that user being infected – and what machines were touched in the process.

This allows enterprise security to understand the extent of an incident very quickly. If unusual traffic patterns are identified, users can search for other devices exhibiting similar behavior that may have infections that have gone undetected.

“That is the essence of threat hunting – security has a hunch it wants to investigate – and Bricata is providing a faster and more thorough way to do it,” added Trauth. “Collecting too much data becomes unwieldy, but taking an intelligent approach to data collection, makes it more accessible and searchable in the moment security needs it the most.”

2) Passive DNS monitoring.

This provides security with the means to understand the DNS information around an alert without physical integration into other IT databases. This means Bricata can both detect malware and covertly trace its origin back to the host – even if it’s a temporary domain – without notifying the perpetrator.

Previously to capture this type of information, security tools would need integration with other databases, such as Active Directory, for example. The Bricata solution does not and may help resolve some of the territorial conflicts that sometimes occur in larger enterprises between security and IT operations staff.

3) Smart packet capture and backtracing.

In addition to metadata, Bricata has developed a smart packet capture (PCAP) feature to capture relevant raw data about packet transfers associated with security alerts. For example, when the solution triggers an alert for unusual network activity such as a significant but unexpected software installation or disk erase operation, it will simultaneously begin smart PCAP targeting the packets in that stream of known interest.

What this PCAP provides for security in this context, is the means and workflow to immediately search packet data after receiving an alert and hunt down threats.

Bricata has also introduced network backtracing into this release. Backtracing enables users to replay previous packet captures against the current set of threat intelligence to identify incidents that would only be visible to current threat intelligence. Now, the solution can answer “if I knew then what I know now,” what might I have discovered?

Bricata is a fast-growing network security provider breathing new innovation into the $1 billion intrusion detection and prevention market. The company raised an $8 million-dollar growth round of funding in July led by Edison Partners. This round also included a strategic investment and development agreement with In-Q-Tel, the strategic investor that accelerates the development and delivery of cutting-edge technologies to support the mission of the U.S. Intelligence Community.

Bricata has been named a “vendor to watch” by a reputable technology analyst firm in 2015 and 2016. In addition, the news organization SDxCentral recently described it as one of “10 Security Startups to Watch” in 2017.

About Bricata

Bricata network security solutions deliver innovative next-generation intrusion prevention, advanced threat detection and analysis, and threat hunting to enable large organizations to actively pursue and identify advanced, persistent, and coordinated attacks. A specialized component-based approach to today’s attacks has left organizations with a stack of tools to manage that provide a patchwork of uncorrelated data, leaving penetrable gaps and inconsistent security policies. The Bricata platform provides organizations with process automation, streamlining operations with the most effective, affordable solution for situational awareness and proactive threat defense, reducing complexity, dwell time and time to containment.

Spartara, Set To Change The Package Delivery Landscape Forever

Ship to Network Company wants to End Package Theft and Deliver at Customer’s Convenience

BEMUS PT, N.Y. (PRWEB) January 18, 2018

Today, Spartara, a technology company located in Western NY, announced the launch of Receivur, a ship to network platform that aims to end consumer package theft while providing economic opportunity to freelance delivery drivers.

Of the company’s recent launch, Spartara CEO Tim Town said, “We all have heard the term Porch-Pirates. It is estimated that over 25 million Americans have been victims of criminals who steal packages, that often include Christmas gifts, right off of their front porches. We believe that this platform will empower consumers to choose a delivery time that works with their schedule so that they are home to receive their packages.”

To understand how Receivur works, imagine that an example character named Mary is buying an expensive camera from her favorite online store to be delivered to her home. Knowing that she works daytime hours in which her package will be dropped off and at risk of being stolen, she would instead sign up with Receivur at http://www.receivur.com. There, she can choose one of many Recievur drivers based on their ratings, and then use the Recievur’s address for delivery of her camera. She would choose the time of her choice to have the package delivered face-to-face to her by a trusted Recievur. Mary is charged a small fee per delivery with no long term obligations or commitments. Mary considers it a small price to pay for the peace of mind of knowing when she will have her package and that it is not at risk of being stolen by porch pirates.

Robert Holland, a member of Spartara and the creator of Receivur states, “It came to me after looking for shipping alternatives to get my packages when I wanted them. The solution wasn’t out there, and the alternative solutions didn’t make sense to me.”

Receivur is creating opportunity by participating in the sharing economy. Receivur allows everyday people to sign up to become a delivery driver. After passing a background check and vehicle specifications, Receivur drivers can log into the Receivur app and begin posting for deliveries. Drivers can elect to do as many deliveries as they are able to without overlapping customer time preferences. They are paid a generous portion of each delivery fee charged to their Client and paid as Independent Contractors who work for themselves.

About Spartara: Spartara is a technology company that offers digital and web solutions to companies to help them compete in a global economy. For more information on the launch of Receivur you can visit receivur.com.

New IT World Order revealed as 60% of enterprises shift to off-premises IT by 2019 fueled by digital transformation and the data revolution

Respondents revealed that the top three IT initiatives for 2018 are all data-centric: business intelligence, machine learning/artificial intelligence and big data.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) January 18, 2018

In its inaugural Voice of the Enterprise (VotE) Digital Pulse survey, 451 Research finds that IT leaders are embracing a new model of off-premises, service-oriented IT solutions and will be looking to harness data in new ways to differentiate themselves in 2018. Respondents revealed that the top three IT initiatives for 2018 are all data-centric: business intelligence, machine learning/artificial intelligence and big data.

The survey finds that IT organizations’ ability to exploit digital transformation is uneven with over 60% of organizations having no formal transformation strategy in place and many admitting they face challenges in achieving optimal business-IT alignment.

Sixty percent of enterprises surveyed for Digital Pulse say they will run the majority of their IT outside the confines of enterprise datacenters by the end of 2019, chiefly using off-premises service provider environments such as public cloud infrastructure and SaaS.

Accordingly, the largest spending increase in 2018 is for IT delivered ‘as a service,’ at the expense of the traditional on-premises model. 451 Research finds information security is also high on the IT agenda, with 16% of organizations saying that area is getting the largest budget increase.

Providers such as Microsoft and Amazon Web Services (AWS) are emerging as enterprises’ most strategic technology suppliers; 35% of organizations say Microsoft will be their most strategic partner by the end of 2019, compared to 33% today, while 17% say AWS will hold that position two years from now compared to 7% today.

The Digital Pulse survey also highlights a revolution in how organizations will harness data to differentiate themselves and create new value. The top three IT initiatives for 2018 were all data-centric: 45% of respondents pointed to business intelligence, 29% mentioned machine learning/artificial intelligence while 28% said big data.

The growth opportunity around data is clear with almost 30% of organizations saying ML/AI is a top priority in 2018 while just 12% of respondents use these solutions today.

Meanwhile, usage of much-hyped technologies such as blockchain remains very low, but more organizations will begin to move from tire kicking to actual deployment over the next year, with 12% of Digital Pulse respondents citing blockchain as a top IT priority for 2018.

“The survey suggests that many – but certainly not all – organizations are finally reaching the point where they can focus on endeavors that help differentiate the business, instead of merely keeping the lights on. In 2018 we expect to see much of this effort focused around a new set of approaches to data optimization and analysis,” said Melanie Posey, Research Vice President and General Manager, Voice of the Enterprise, 451 Research.

About Digital Pulse

The 451 Research Voice of the Enterprise (VotE) Digital Pulse is a comprehensive quarterly survey of over 1,000 IT professionals worldwide that takes a top-line ‘pulse’ of the state of enterprise IT strategy and the nature, pace and direction of digital transformation.

Clark Launches The Syllabus Newsletter for Tutors

Distributed daily, The Syllabus is the first-of-its-kind newsletter designed to share news, information, and relevant links with tutors, educators, and policymakers.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) January 18, 2018

Leading edtech company Clark announced today the launch of their inaugural news digest, The Syllabus. Distributed daily, The Syllabus is the first-of-its-kind newsletter designed to share news, information, and relevant links with tutors, educators, and policymakers.

Founded by Megan O’Connor and Sam Gimbel, Clark is a revolutionary mobile tool for tutors and administrative software solution for tutoring centers. Since its inception in early 2017, Clark has gained recognition as pioneering software that brings transparency to the tutoring and private education space. Now, with the impending launch of their content platform, Clark is providing the tools, tips, and advice tutors need to scale their businesses.

As the demand for personalized education becomes more and more apparent, the need for tutors has increased significantly. The “no excuses” policy, adopted by Charter Schools nationwide underscores this point, highlighting increased scores and success rates of students due in large part to mandated high-dosage tutoring.

Further, recent research has shown that tutoring programs that incorporate research-based elements produce improvements in reading achievement; and tutoring can also lead to improvements in self confidence about reading, motivation for reading, and behavior, both among tutees and among peer or cross-age tutors. But for tutors to be as successful as possible, they need to be equipped with the latest information.

“There is a gaping hole in the market for professional development for tutors. We noticed that despite the critical role tutors play in our education system, there is no place where they can find content and resources geared specifically to the tutoring industry. The Syllabus is meant to fill that gap,” says O’Connor. “There are so many stories about education, policy changes, new methods, new technology – it can seem overwhelming to follow it all. The Syllabus is an easily digestible way to consume the best, most helpful stories in the education space every morning, making it easier for tutors to be even better at what they do.”

To learn more about Clark or sign up for The Syllabus please visit hiclark.com/blog.

About Clark:

Clark is a revolutionary tool for tutors that functions as a virtual assistant offering automated scheduling, payment solutions, and progress reports for students and their parents. Started in 2017 by Megan O’Connor and Sam Gimbel, Clark reduces the admin load out of being a tutor and streamlines communications between tutors, educators, and parents - all while simultaneously providing the student with the educational assistance that they need. Previously, Megan was a founding member of Human Ventures, a startup studio in New York City. Megan also worked in impact, where she served as the Director of Development at Pencils of Promise, an innovative "for purpose"​ nonprofit organization providing quality education in the developing world.

MessageGears to Host Webinar: “Legacy Email Service Providers Have Failed Enterprise Marketers”

The company will discuss how legacy ESPs have failed to provide enterprise organizations with the tools they need to send highly personalized messages at scale.

Atlanta, Ga. (PRWEB) January 18, 2018

While businesses may love email marketing because email often provides the highest revenue generation when compared to other marketing channels, that doesn’t mean enterprise marketers love their email service provider (ESP). MessageGears will explore that complicated relationship in an upcoming webinar, “How Legacy ESPs Have Failed Enterprise Marketers,” set for Tuesday, Jan. 30, at 2 p.m. ET. To register for the webinar: http://ow.ly/7Wbb30hP34z.

The 30-minute webinar will provide expert insight into how enterprise marketers can take back control of their data to eliminate the limits that legacy ESP systems place on the use of customer data for email marketing. It will reference MessageGears’ recently released 2018 ESP Satisfaction Report, in which the company surveyed 101 Business-to-Consumer enterprise marketers on various aspects of their feelings toward their companies’ ESP. For a free download of the full ESP Satisfaction Report, visit https://messagegears.com/marketing-resources/.

In addition to advice, the webinar will explore why the largest companies are not only less likely to be enthusiastic about the performance of their ESP, but are also less likely than smaller enterprise organizations to change. They’ll discuss how it has become so difficult for these companies to switch providers, and what some marketers are doing to take control of their email marketing program.

“What we are finding is that enterprise marketers feel trapped by their ESP, but we don’t see a whole lot of ESPs collaborating to make it easier to switch between providers,” said MessageGears Director of Marketing Will Devlin, who will lead the webinar discussion alongside Vice President of Account Management Chris Brown. “Why would they? High switching barriers result in high customer retention, even if those customers aren’t really happy. The big, ugly secret of the email marketing industry is that switching between providers would be easy if companies started taking back ownership of their data, but ESPs don’t want you to control your data. They want your data so ingrained in their system that you can’t pull it out easily. We think this is a huge disservice to the advancement of the email marketing industry.”

That idea was confirmed in MessageGears’ recent survey. The 2018 ESP Satisfaction Report revealed three major trends affecting enterprise email marketers:

Large companies are staying with ESPs they don’t love. On average, businesses that send 10M to 100M emails monthly have been with their ESP for three to five years. Marketing teams aren’t very satisfied with the product, but say they can’t change due to deep integration, an extremely long buying cycle, siloes in the company that inhibit change, and perceptions about cost and the learning curve associated with a change.

The C-Suite’s view on strengths and priorities doesn’t usually align with their team’s. While 50 percent of high-level executives indicated they were “very satisfied” with the performance of their current ESP, only 17 percent of managers, senior managers, directors and vice presidents agreed. And 80 percent of C-Suite executives said they were “very satisfied” with their ESP’s ease-of-use and real-time data access, compared with just 19 percent for the rest of the marketing team.

Companies with on-premises ESPs are more reluctant to change, even if they don’t like their current system. Just 25 percent of companies with in-house ESPs said they were open to changing ESP. But only 18 percent of companies with in-house ESPs were “very satisfied.” The reluctance is somewhat obvious – companies hate to give up on something they built; they have already sunk a lot of money into the project; and in-house email feels free, even if it requires staff and may be hindering growth.

Mytonomy to provide custom microlearning video content and their Patient Experience Cloud platform

BETHESDA, Md. (PRWEB) January 18, 2018

Mytonomy, a leader in patient experience cloud solutions, leveraging behavioral and learning science to drive longitudinal patient activation for better health outcomes, announced it will support Onduo, a joint venture created by Verily (an Alphabet company) and Sanofi. Mytonomy will develop custom microlearning video education for Onduo’s Virtual Diabetes Clinic members, and provide their Patient Experience Cloud, white‐labeled under the Onduo brand, enabling Onduo coaches and members access to a master library of modern microlearning patient education, anytime, anywhere on any mobile device.

“Great content engages all audiences. We are excited to support with Onduo by applying our microlearning approach to participant education for virtual diabetes self‐management. Mytonomy’s microlearning approach enables patients to learn about the critical aspects of health management strategies from the comfort of their own home on their preferred mobile device,” said Anjali Kataria, CEO of Mytonomy.

“Traditional forms of classroom style diabetes self‐management education have already shown positive gains in patient motivation, understanding and better health outcomes. However, in an increasingly mobile world, leveraging novel technologies is necessary to build the future foundations of wellness and new habits in chronic care disease management. These require tailoring, personalizing and modernizing patient education to meet patients where they are today, and to drive optimal engagement levels outside of the hospital and clinic.

“Mytonomy’s Patient Experience Cloud will help educate consumers about innovative coaching platforms like Onduo’s Virtual Diabetes Clinic,” said Vinay Bhargava, Co‐Founder, and President of Mytonomy. “By delivering precise patient education enabled by our APIs, we can make the human interaction between coaches and patients more robust and efficient, allowing more patients to be positively impacted.”

About Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by high blood sugar levels that stem from inappropriate production or use of insulin. In 2014, it was estimated that 29 million Americans[i] and 425 million people worldwide[ii] have diabetes. About 90-95% of these individuals have type 2 diabetes and 29% take some form of insulin[iii]. Despite being provided with effective medications, more than half of them do not meet the recommended targets for glycemic control[iv]. Major contributing factors include challenges with insulin initiation and titration. Owing to the complications associated with diabetes, its total annual cost in the US amounts to $245 billion. Optimizing adherence to diabetes medications is recognized as one of the most effective ways of controlling disease expenditures[v]. The cost saving opportunity in the U.S is estimated to be $4,690 per patient per year[vi]. It has been estimated that the global economic burden of diabetes is U.S. $827 billion. [vii]

FileFly 2.0 Secondary Storage Platform Recognized for Innovation, Performance and Ease of Integration

AUSTIN, Texas (PRWEB) January 18, 2018

Caringo, Inc. today announced that Caringo FileFly 2.0 Secondary Storage Platform has been chosen as a finalist in TechTarget’s Storage magazine and SearchStorage.com 2017 Product of the Year awards in the Data Storage Management Tools category. Caringo FileFly enables the efficient migration of data from Microsoft® Windows® Servers or NetApp® Filers to a limitless secondary pool of self-healing storage on commodity servers powered by Caringo® Swarm Scale-Out Hybrid Storage. The company’s Swarm product was similarly honored in 2014, as was the original FileFly™ for Swarm in 2015 and SwarmNFS in 2016.

Finalists were judged by a panel comprised of a cross-section of users, analysts, consultants and Storage magazine and SearchStorage.com editors. The products are rated according to their innovation, performance, ease of integration, ease of use, functionality and value. Results will be published in the February issue of Storage magazine and online.

FileFly 2.0 is critical in enabling organizations to scale storage to multiple petabytes and trillions of files, optimize filers, and consolidate files across multiple locations—all while driving down total cost of ownership and acquisition. It allows organizations to take advantage of today’s cloud-like storage infrastructure with no application changes and while retaining transparent end-user file access.

“We appreciate being recognized by TechTarget as having provided one of the top data management products of the year with our latest nomination for the FileFly 2.0 Secondary Storage Platform,” said Tony Barbagallo, VP Product of Caringo. “This really validates the growing need for our data management capabilities and that we are meeting the needs of a quickly evolving marketplace.”
