"Anytime, Anywhere" Access of Author-it Live Becomes Highly Attractive For Growing Remote Workforce

AUCKLAND, New Zealand - May 2007 - Author-it Software Corporation (www.authorit.com), a world leader in software for authoring, content management, publishing, and localization, has introduced Author-it Live the first complete, Web-based authoring, content management and publishing solution.
The Web-based delivery capabilities of Author-it Live, an online version of the company's popular flagship product, provide the user with all the power of an enterprise-level content management system combined with the fast access of the Web from any location.  Using Author-it Live, geographically distributed teams can more effectively collaborate on the creation, sharing/reuse, and management of content while working remotely via Internet access.  The product's ease-of-use makes the product simple to navigate, even for basic users.  Plus, with no client software to install, Author-it Live can be deployed easily and quickly. 

While other Web-based content management systems are currently available, Author-it Live is the only product with authoring, management, and publishing modules all developed and manufactured internally by Author-it, not "cobbled together" with components from various third-party vendors.  Consequently, the product provides more seamless operation than competitive products, while eliminating potential integration issues.

Author-it Live will prove especially useful to companies involved in extensive distributed content creation and review, as well as those for whom the easy, fast deployment of Web-based software is attractive (i.e., less burden on the IT department).  The new Web-based tool, like its Windows counterpart, will appeal to departments that produce materials with a high degree of redundancy and reuse, such as those departments involved in producing technical manuals and

other types of formal documentation (human resources, sales and marketing, training, etc.).  Market segments with the greatest volume of such documentation include IT, industrials, government, education, financial services, and healthcare.

"The Web-based functionality of Author-it Live makes a great product even better," said Steve Davis, general manager of Author-it Software Corporation.  "With the number of remote workers growing at an astounding rate [projected by Entrepreneur Magazine at 51 million by 2008], the product's ‘anytime, anywhere' access via the Internet will become an increasingly critical factor for American businesses."

Technical requirements for running Author-it Live include a Windows Server, along with an Internet-connected PC or laptop for each user. 

Author-it is available direct through the Author-it Web site (www.authorit.com) or by calling toll-free (800) 754-0377.  It can also be obtained through authorized resellers, listed on the Author-it site.

Product pricing is as follows:
  • Author-it Live Editor - $20,000 per server
  • Author-it Integration Server - $10,000 per server (full Web server layer)
  • Author-it Publishing Server - $5,000 per server
In addition, customers will need to purchase base user licenses at $1,200 each.
