Norwood, Mass. – January 7, 2003 – Open Channel Solutions (OCS), the leader in software licensing management solutions, today announced the launch of its new web site, www.ocs.com. The new site illustrates how software publishers can achieve greater returns from their licensing programs.
“Software publishers are facing huge challenges that result from a maturing industry and a down economy. Most of them are turning to innovative licensing programs in order to generate more consistent and recurring revenue,” said Ed Rose, president and CEO of OCS. “Our new web site shows these publishers how technology companies have benefited from using licensing management solutions to drive costs out of the system and to increase revenue from their customers. We hope it will give software publishers ideas on how they can enhance administration of their own critical licensing programs in ways that drive higher profits for their organizations.”
For example, one success story highlighted on the OCS web site shows how a technology vendor saved $300,000 in operational costs and reduced software piracy by 25%, while another showcases a software publisher who enhanced its subscription and rental licensing program revenues by 10% while decreasing operational costs by 15%, all with the help of OCS’ POETIC license management products.
The OCS web site relaunch signals the company’s continued commitment to educating the market on the benefits of well-managed licensing programs, and to providing solutions that help publishers maximize returns on their licensing programs.
