The aim of the partnership is to bolster the already successful UK roll-out of EFS Technology's AutoFORM LaserNet by taking advantage of the established and respected market presence that IDS has in the document production sector.

The partnership will also allow IDS to enhance its competitive edge and offer its customers even more choice when it comes to selecting the best document composition, scanning, archiving, retrieval and delivery solutions.

"Since adding AutoForm LaserNet to our suite of software solutions, it has received a great deal of attention from both new and existing customers", states Philip Pine, Business Development Manager for IDS.

"Not only has the intuitive approach of AutoForm impressed but also the ease of installation and configuration. Furthermore, the integrated document composition, scanning, archiving, retrieval and delivery features offer our customers excellent value for money and help to ensure they get the most from their document production process.

We have already found that AutoForm integrates extremely well with many other solutions we offer. In fact, some of our connectivity and output management products are necessary in order for AutoForm to ‘talk’ to certain mainframes, servers and printers."

Philip concludes: "Everyone at IDS is looking forward to a long and thriving partnership with EFS Technology – a partnership I am certain will benefit both IDS and EFS customers alike."

Rasmus Lyhne, Channel Manager at EFS Technology is already extremely happy with the partnership: "Already during IDS’ first AutoForm LaserNet customer implementation we became instantly aware of the company’s excellence in consultancy, support and reliability. Moreover I like that fact that IDS don’t necessarily impose one specific solution on their customers rather they let their customers decide single-handedly what solution they prefer to integrate."
