MetaSource announces MetaStor – the first hosted ApplicationXtender system available through distribution as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)

With cloud adoption rates on the rise, MetaSource develops a highly secure cloud based option for ApplicationXtender. MetaStor provides online document and content management retrieval.

At their National EMC ApplicationXtender / Captiva Partner Conference in Atlantic City, NJ MetaSource announced the release of MetaStor™, a cloud-based offering of the EMC ApplicationXtender™ (AX) suite of products. MetaStor™ provides a secure online document and content management system allowing you to retrieve, view, route and manage documents using standard browsers.

MetaStor™ provides any document anywhere at anytime via the web with all of the features and functionality of a premise-based content management system. MetaStor™ also provides that same functionality with remote access using MetaSource’s Metamobil application using an iPhone™ or iPad™.

MetaStor™ Benefits:

• Eliminates the need for capital expenditure investment in servers and storage needed to deploy a premise-based content management solution.
• SaaS offers a fixed monthly cost based on storage and features creating a “pay as you go” model.
• Upgrades and new functionality are deployed on MetaStor™ with little effect on IT or end users.
• MetaStor™ provides uncompromised security through SOC/AT101 (formerly SAS 70), PCI Level 1.
• “Pilot” content management solutions in specific departments without and infrastructure preparation or costs.
• Leverage 100+ combined years ApplicationXtender and AX Workflow experience with your cloud-computing partner MetaSource.

“Because the cloud represents much more than storage in the sky, deployments of business applications require more rigorous process and skills. And when it comes to ApplicationXtender cloud deployments, MetaSource has made the necessary investments into infrastructure and licensing in order to bring an ApplicationXtender based SaaS solution to the market through its distribution model,” states Mario Duckett, VP of Content Management Solutions.

MetaStor™ is immediately available for MetaSource partners and their customers.
