The MathWorks has Leveraged an Evolving Rhythmyx ECM Solution

Published: November 14, 2005

Rhythmyx has enabled the company to reduce the IT staff responsible for web updates 60 percent, while gaining additional productivity.

The MathWorks, a developer of technical computing software for engineers and scientists in industry, government, and education, employs more than 1,100 people worldwide and maintains a complex, multi-domain web presence to serve its global customer base.

The MathWorks has leveraged an evolving Rhythmyx ECM solution from Percussion Software. From its earliest implementation, through successive upgrades to today's state-of-the-art solution, The MathWorks has continued to utilize Rhythmyx to better improve its web-based marketing and communications efforts.  By putting publishing power into the hands of users across departments who own the content, Rhythmyx has enabled the company to reduce the IT staff responsible for web updates 60 percent, while gaining additional productivity by assigning those developers to other projects.  At the same time, The MathWorks has increased the volume of web content managed by more than 1,000 percent. The keys to this success—and the long-term health of the customer/vendor relationship—are smart technology and tireless support.

"Rhythmyx gives us a robust solution that meets our global needs, using standards-based technologies that are easier for us to maintain," says Matt Petrie, an eMarketing Manager at The MathWorks.
