OREANDA-NEWS. SMBs and enterprise to benefit from workflow and document management delivered via an enterprise grade cloud platform from Australian data centres Sydney, 12 December, 2013

Canon Australia and Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand have today announced a partnership to host Canon's Therefore Online workflow and information management solution on Fujitsu's cloud platform. Therefore Online is an extension of Canon's Therefore software platform, which is designed to provide a full information management and workflow solution for businesses across various sources of information including paper documents, electronic files, barcodes, email, internet forms and XML files.

Therefore Online is the first of Canon Australia's applications to be hosted on the Fujitsu platform and will pave the way for a new suite of cloud-based offerings that will allow the delivery of the applications to consumers on a cost-effective subscription model. Ideal for small to medium businesses (SMB), Therefore Online is scalable to organisations of all sizes.

This partnership leverages Canon's existing long-term relationship with Fujitsu. The two companies have worked together on similar agreements in the United States and Europe; however this agreement is specific to Canon Australia and Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand.

Canon's Therefore Online is expected to be launched in early 2014.
