Adlib Software and Nintex® Partner to Automate Business Processes in SharePoint® with Document Conversion to PDF and Intelligent Workflows

NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Burlington, Ontario, Canada, 07/15/2010 - Adlib Software today announced their technology partnership with Nintex.

The partnership provides a powerful integrated solution to empower users to automate business processes in SharePoint through workflows and the conversion of documents using Adlib PDF for SharePoint.

Adlib is the global leader in document transformation solutions for organizations with challenging business problems due to high volumes of content or regulatory compliance. Nintex is a leading global innovator of SharePoint software products with a passionate commitment to innovation and user experience. Partnered together, Adlib PDF for SharePoint and Nintex Workflow simplifies the process of developing workflows that includes rich document rendering without any custom coding, enabling organizations to react quickly to business needs and reduce costs by eliminating manual business processes.

For users of Adlib PDF for SharePoint and Nintex Workflow, this partnership will provide them with the ability to include document rendering within larger business workflows which can quickly be designed and deployed using Nintex Workflow. For example, the automatic conversion and distribution of documents in a secure PDF format after a document approval or converting documents to PDF/A as part of an archiving process.

"Through the combination of the intuitive workflow tools that Nintex provides and Adlib's automated publishing and rendering engine, Montrium was able to streamline the management and routing of clinical trial records for submission, whilst also significantly reducing the PDF publishing burden on regulatory operations," says Paul Fenton, Vice President, Pharmaceutical Processes and Technology, Montrium Inc. "Montrium welcomes the continued integration of these products to further enhance regulatory submission readiness and automate the regulatory submissions process for new drugs."

The integration between Adlib and Nintex makes it easy to add document rendering to your workflows. You simply insert a "Start Workflow" Action into the Nintex workflow, and then configure it to invoke any of the Adlib workflows for SharePoint that are deployed on your system. It is easy to understand how this is done by watching this short video.

Our focus is creating impactful business solutions on the SharePoint platform for our customers and we frequently leverage their products in these solutions," says Tony Smith, Product Manager, DataLan. "We use Nintex Workflow to create complex workflow processes and Adlib PDF for SharePoint to create PDF versions of materials often created as part of these processes. Having built-in integration between the Adlib and Nintex products will allow us to more easily bring together the capabilities of these products into our solutions."

"Converting documents to PDF is often part of a records management process to ensure documents controls," said Peter Duff, CEO of Adlib Software. "Through the combination of Nintex Workflow and Adlib PDF for SharePoint, a wide variety of document-related issues are solved, including excessive amounts of unsearchable documents, legacy or inaccessible formats, longer retention periods, increasingly complex electronic records, disparate archiving methodologies, and the need to manage and track complete document lifecycles. Together Adlib & Nintex solve tangible business needs and requirements as a well-rounded solution offering."

"Nintex welcomes Adlib, a pioneer of PDF file conversion, as a technology partner," says Wayne Woolston, managing director, Nintex. "Ease of use and product innovation are stamped all over this offering."
