M-Files Opens Office In Germany To Meet Growing Demand For Information Management Solutions

Recognized Leader in ECM Increases German Sales and Marketing Investment; Expands Local Support

M-Files Corporation, a provider of solutions that dramatically improve how enterprises manage documents and other information, recently announced the opening of its new office in Ratingen, Germany. M-Files is increasing its investment in the German market to help bolster and better support the company's channel partners and to expand its direct sales teams in the region.

German companies have been early adopters of enterprise content management (ECM) systems, and the region is considered to be a competitive and buyer-savvy ECM market. While German organizations have made information management a strategic priority, many of them have not experienced an optimal ROI because traditional ECM systems are complex and force users to change the way they work, and as a result, they suffer from low user adoption rates.

"We've seen strong demand for our ECM solutions from German organizations looking for an easier and more flexible approach to help solve their complex and demanding information management requirements," said Jan Thijs van Wijngaarden, Regional Channel Manager at M-Files. “The metadata-powered M-Files solution provides a vastly superior alternative to traditional folder-based ECM systems, and the opening of our office in Germany will enable us to accelerate our efforts to bring the value of this approach to companies in this region.” 

A recognized global leader in the enterprise content management (ECM) and document management markets, M-Files has thousands of customers and more than 500 partners in more than 100 countries. The company has received numerous awards and accolades, as well as recognition in key industry and analyst reports, such as inclusion in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management (ECM), and the Forrester Wave: Enterprise Content Management.
