Pro2col Limited (www.pro2colgroup.com), file transfer specialists and manufacturers of Hermstedt StingRay (www.hermstedtstingray.com) are pleased to announce the appointment of GAFICON as their exclusive distribution partner in Germany. Focusing on the optimisation of production and business processes for media based companies, GAFICON’s knowledge and industry experience provides a solid foundation for the supply and support of StingRay in the German premedia marketplace.
A multi-protocol file transfer solution designed specifically with the needs of the premedia industry in mind, StingRay is already widely used by printer's, publisher's and media companies throughout Germany. Since the addition of its new workflow management module, StingRay's enhanced workflow integration functionality enables users to further automate their production processes. Custom web forms capture unique job details during file submission, which are then presented to the workflow as an XML job ticket. This recent addition simplifies and streamlines the file submission process, improving customer experience and saving money.
James Lewis, Managing Director of Pro2col Limited said, "I'm extremely pleased to be able to announce to our German Hermstedt StingRay users that we have signed an agreement with GAFICON. I have known Uli Finkler since he originally developed StingRay at Hermstedt AG and with his knowledge of StingRay and of other premedia technologies, I am confident that our customers are in good hands."
Uli Finkler, CEO at GAFICON GmbH, said, “To satisfy the need for an integrative and workflow supporting file transfer solution for customers, and the unique opportunity to do this with the combination of my former product StingRay and a partner like Pro2Col, pleased me extraordinarily. I have known James Lewis for years and with their successful work in Great Britain and this agreement, we can start a successful cooperation.“
With Uli's extensive knowledge of the StingRay product teamed with his industry experience, GAFICON have the tools and expertise to improve customer and professional services. Educating users and helping them to better integrate StingRay with their existing creative, publishing and print workflows will enable businesses to benefit from the efficiencies StingRay provides, thus maximising return on investment.
