CrownPeak announced its CrownPeak for Interactive Agencies Program. The program helps agencies provide customized and unique Web site management solutions without the overhead, time constraints and worry about technological limitations. CrownPeak Partner agencies can now outsource a complete Web site management platform, or work directly in the CrownPeak CMS to integrate their custom solutions. The agency program allows qualified, participating agencies to do as much or as little of the CMS implementation, development or support as they are comfortable with. This also allows them to earn additional revenue from both the services side and the software side as a CrownPeak reseller. The CrownPeak for Interactive Agencies Program offers the following three tiers of involvement: CrownPeak Partner Agency – Agencies simply sell CrownPeak to customers or introduce CrownPeak to opportunities. CrownPeak takes care of all implementation and support; CrownPeak Enabled Agency – Agencies enable their teams to implement and support CrownPeak’s software solutions for their customers. Agencies get special pricing, training and specialized support; CrownPeak Certified Agency – All CrownPeak partners can become CrownPeak Certified for either just design and strategy or full implementation of the software. CrownPeak Certified Agencies receive direct leads from CrownPeak’s sales team. The new program provides CrownPeak Enabled Agencies with a free instance of CrownPeak Software to use for demonstrations and/or for the agency’s own Web site management. CrownPeak will also provide developer training, sales materials and a dedicated CrownPeak Partner Representative to qualified agencies. In return, and in order to stay qualified, CrownPeak asks partner agencies to bring at least one new customer to CrownPeak CMS per year. http://www.crownpeak.com

Research and Market has announced the addition of “Content Management Market forecast” to their offering. The market for content management (CM) product licence revenues will continue to grow steadily at an average rate of 3.6%, from $1.59 billion in 2004, reaching $2 billion by 2009. Report findings include “2004 saw overall growth of 2.9%. Larger players have continued to pull away from the rest of the pack, with IBM, Microsoft, Documentum, FileNet and OpenText showing licence revenues of well over $100 million, with the others lagging behind. Market consolidation has steadied to a trickle, and has been limited largely to the acquisition of specific, niche technology. North America remains the largest market for CM, followed closely by Western Europe, which will continue to grow steadily. The Asia-Pacific market currently accounts for the third largest share in the CM market, and this share is set to increase over the next five years. The main drivers in the market are: Recognition of the commercial importance of providing employees, partners and customers with accurate, up-to-date and timely content; The continuing struggle to gain control of the mass of information within organisations and the mass of resources it takes up; The initiatives in government and corporate governance driving the effective management of electronic content.” http://www.researchandmarkets.com/
