AvePoint Selected as a Finalist for the 2013 KM Promise Award

KM Promise Award recognizes companies who go above and beyond simply selling software by making sure their customers recognize real business results

Jersey City, New Jersey — October 23, 2013 — AvePoint, the leader in governance, compliance, and management solutions for social enterprise collaboration platforms, announced today it has been named a finalist for the KM Promise Award, presented by KMWorld magazine. AvePoint was nominated for its DocAve 6 Software Platform. The winner will be announced at KMWorld 2013, taking place November 6-8 at the Renaissance Washington DC Downtown Hotel.

The KM Promise Award is given to an organization that best delivers on its promise to customers that its technology is the best knowledge management solution available. The winning company will provide its customers with innovative technology solutions for implementing and integrating knowledge management practices into their business processes, and goes beyond simply selling technology by working with clients to ensure that both the technology and knowledge processes are imbedded into the process.

“Any time AvePoint is acknowledged with an award nomination it is in an honor, but being nominated for the KM Promise award is truly special because it validates the importance we place on our customers and meeting their enterprise collaboration needs,” said Dr. Tianyi (TJ) Jiang, Co-CEO and Co-Founder, AvePoint. “Our customers count on us to provide them with solutions that will help them to do their jobs better and realize positive business results, and we pride ourselves on enabling them to better collaborate with confidence.”

AvePoint’s nomination was based off of a success story involving Park Nicollet, a health services company located in Minnesota. With more than 8,100 employees utilizing Microsoft SharePoint, Park Nicollet had several critical needs to be addressed to ensure optimal collaboration:

• Automated reports on SharePoint usage and content
• Granular backup of important SharePoint content scheduled according to business needs
• Fast, full recovery of lost and corrupted SharePoint components

Park Nicollet ultimately chose AvePoint’s DocAve 6 Software Platform to ensure its essential SharePoint data was fully protected while carefully monitoring the data to meet the healthcare industry’s stringent compliance objectives. “We chose DocAve because of its unified platform, which will enable us to scale our SharePoint deployment and effectively meet challenges in all areas,” said Scott Glaser, SharePoint Architect, Park Nicollet.

Glaser also said Park Nicollet’s administrators found great benefits from AvePoint’s global, live support. “AvePoint’s support has been top notch from the beginning and is always ready to act whenever we need them,” Glaser said. “Watching them work has also empowered us with the knowledge and experience to address issues on our own.”
