Unicon and RedDot Partner to Deliver CMS for Higher Education
Unicon, Inc., independent provider of enterprise portal, collaboration, learning, and integration technology for higher education institutions, and RedDot Solutions, provider of enterprise content management (ECM) solutions for midmarket organizations, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Hummingbird Ltd., announced a partnership where Unicon will package RedDot’s CMS Web Content Management Solution with Academus, its enterprise portal offering for higher education.
The combined solutions of RedDot’s CMS and Unicon’s Academus portal and collaborative groupware provide an inclusive, customized, e-Learning foundation built on uPortal open-source technology for all educational establishments to quickly and easily create, edit, and update a unique online experience through one unified interface.
RedDot’s CMS enables all content creators, even those with no knowledge of basic Web design, with the ability to create and publish content online. As soon as these content creators publish their information, it becomes available via their Web site or portal.
Unicon’s Academus provides a user-friendly Web interface integrated with pre-configured channels to encourage collaboration and communication online. In addition, Academus serves as a powerful integration platform to a great number of outside applications, ultimately providing a seamless gateway to a customized online campus.
"Unicon has terrific expertise in providing higher education clients the advice and solutions they need,” said Darren Guarnaccia, RedDot’s Director of Business Development and Technology. "It is an excellent opportunity to offer RedDot’s content management solutions to compete and serve a unique vertical market.”
"In our search for a Web content management partner, we assessed all the major providers and found that because of its ease of use and its wealth of features and functionality, RedDot offers the best complement to Academus for the higher education community,” said John C. Blakley, Unicon CEO. "Partnerships like this are important to stay ahead in the market while presenting the best possible solutions for the needs of our clients.” 26.09.2005, Elizabeth Torrie, RedDot Solutions AG
