OpenText Leads the Messaging Services Market

OpenText [1]Enterprise Information Management [2] developer OpenText [1]™ has announced that the company has been named a leader across multiple categories in Computer-Based Fax Markets, 2012-2017 [3], a recent report published by leading fax industry analyst firm, Davidson Consulting. Recognized as the #1 provider of fax servers, the #1 FoIP supplier and the #1 production fax server supplier, OpenText continues to strengthen its position as the market leader in messaging services, while moving to the forefront of the rapidly emerging hybrid faxing market forecasted to “more than double in size by 2017.”1 In November 2012, Davidson Consulting also listed OpenText as the #1 provider of Enterprise Fax Service.2

“Our latest report reveals a number of important factors that vendors must heed in regard to fax service software. While FoIP, production fax, multifunction peripherals (MFPs), unified messaging, and portable faxing make the list, we anticipate that hybrid faxing will come to dominate the market in the near future,” said Peter Davidson, president, Davidson Consulting. “As the overall leader in 2012, OpenText has built a solid foundation for success in the hybrid faxing market by consistently securing leadership status in key market segments.”

Hybrid faxing, dubbed by Davidson Consulting as the “hottest part of the computer fax market,”3 combines systems of fax servers and hosted fax services4 and is becoming a highly attractive approach as more organizations are seeking to move to the cloud to increase efficiency and cost effectiveness in their fax communications. Businesses operating in the cloud can take advantage of faster deployments of solutions that solve real problems without having to manage capacity constraints inherent with most on-premises deployments.

“We are thrilled that Davidson Consulting continues to identify OpenText as a leader in the fax market as it supports our goal in providing world leading messaging services that are comprehensive, compelling, and open. Our customers benefit from extensive deployment options, strong economics, and highly flexible solutions that can integrate seamlessly into their enterprise processes,” said Gary Weiss, senior vice president, information exchange and cloud, OpenText. “Understanding that hybrid faxing is not just a trend to watch, but one to lead, we’ve combined the power and integration of OpenText’s on-premises fax server, RightFax [4], with the flexibility and cost efficiency of OpenText’s cloud-based fax service, EasyLink [5], to bring our customers the ultimate hybrid solution – RightFax Connect [6].”
