Springville, Utah-29 June, 2011 - As the first half of 2011 comes to a close, Digital Technology International (DTI™) reports record-breaking levels of worldwide customer installations. The number of DTI's news media customers who went into live production with new DTI software this year is the highest in the company's 30-year history. This year's go-lives and upgrades include more than 60 customer sites across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific. This surpasses the previous mark from 1999 which was driven by the unprecedented Y2K demand.
More than half of the customer implementations were through DTI Cloud, the company's trend-setting SaaS publishing environment.
"Our record volume of customer go-lives and upgrades reflects a pent-up demand and renewed level of confidence in the competitiveness of news media companies. It also says quite a lot about the confidence that our customers have in our solutions and our people," said Mary Olson, vice president, Operations, DTI. "Our implementation teams have been working hard all year to help our customers deploy new features to drive audience engagement and revenue expansion. DTI Cloud is also proving to be a major boost in our ability to do many of these go-lives and upgrades more efficiently. Our customers are more competitive when they stay current with all of the latest features."
