Atlanta, GA - January 24, 2008 - Legal IT specialist Tikit (www.tikit.com) today announced it is the Global Partner of the Year 2007 for DocAuto, Inc, (www.docauto.com), the leading developer of matter-centric software for Interwoven's WorkSite electronic filing solution. The award follows Tikit's appointment in June 2007 as the exclusive UK and European reseller for DocAuto's WorkSpace Manager and other products. The award has been granted in recognition of both the number of clients and revenue that Tikit has generated, as well as the potential that the two firms have in working together in the European market.
Since signing the original partnership agreement with DocAuto, Tikit has already secured more than 15 clients for the software in the UK, Europe and Scandinavia. With leading firms - including Bech-Bruun, Berwin Leighton Paisner, Garrigues, Sacker & Partners, Simmons & Simmons, SJ Berwin and Marks & Clerk - having adopted the technology, DocAuto is now firmly established as the leading tool for managing all aspects of a firm's WorkSpaces.
The WorkSpace Manager uses external data sources such as law firm accounting databases or corporate matter management databases to create and maintain a matter-centric architecture within the WorkSite 8 environment.
Mike Nolan, Development Manager at Berwin Leighton Paisner, comments: "We see real value in DocAuto's WorkSpace Manager for WorkSite. It provides us with a solid technical foundation to support all aspects of folder management within WorkSite."
David Kiefer, President and CEO of DocAuto, said: "We have been extraordinarily pleased with Tikit UK & Europe, and are looking forward to greater success in 2008 and beyond. As well as having generated credible new clients in their territories, Tikit has added real value to clients with their expertise in the WorkSite environment and how our products can enhance WorkSite. A close relationship has developed between the firms and is proving to be a powerful partnership proposition."
Gareth Thomas, Sales Manager at Tikit, said: "DocAuto's products add significant value to the Interwoven technology proposition as powerful tools for implementing and maintaining the Matter-Centric-Architecture in WorkSite; as such they add real value to our client base. We're the acknowledged leader when it comes to legal IT in UK and Europe and, in partnership with DocAuto, we've been able to leverage this position and optimize the possibilities that this relationship presents."
