MITS and Zumasys Announce Reseller Relationship

MITS and Zumasys, a systems integrator specializing in multi-vendor technology solutions for small and medium businesses, have announced a new reseller agreement aimed at providing increased choice and business intelligence capabilities to the Zumasys customer base.
In addition to its MITS Discover OLAP Business Intelligence System, MITS offers MITS Report, which enables enterprises using a range of technology platforms, including MultiValue and relational systems, to quickly launch complete operational reporting environments.

Zumasys helps companies with MultiValue-based systems, including more than 11,000 users of the D3 database, to extend the life and value of their systems. “Our strategy with these companies is to help them rejuvenate their systems, wrapping them with newer infrastructure technologies - from wireless mobility with Citrix, to warehouse management, to virtualization, network security, and, especially now, reporting and analytics,” said Paul Giobbi, president of Zumasys, at the time of the announcement.

According to MITS, the Zumasys strategy dovetails well with its marketing philosophy. “Our value proposition is similar,” said Fred Owen, MITS president. “When we face the MultiValue space, we bring technology that can re-invigorate and extend the life and value of existing systems. That plays well for end users, resellers who may be embedding our solutions inside their applications, and integrators like Zumasys - all of whom are trying to make the most of these legacy systems.” 

Giobbi said Zumasys customers have consistently shown interest in data warehousing, reporting, imaging, and other ancillary solutions and, as a result, this year the company focused on these complementary technologies at its Annual Customer Solutions Conference “The response to the MITS business intelligence and reporting solutions was tremendous.”

The new relationship is expected to expand as new applications for MITS solutions emerge. Once Zumasys consultants identify a need for operational reporting and/or advanced analytics, MITS consultants will become involved and work with the customer to define a specific solution. 
“These companies have often made huge investments in their MultiValue systems,” explained Giobbi. “Because we can surround them with newer technologies, our customers often begin to see their legacy systems as significantly more valuable than they had thought.”
