Munich, June, 14 2023 – Appsfactory, one of Europe’s leading providers for digital transformation and IT Consulting, together with Livingdocs, the premier publishing solutions provider in the DACH region, celebrate a significant achievement: the successful migration of 250 editors from DER STANDARD, the renowned Austrian news outlet, to the innovative Livingdocs content management system (CMS). As the first Austrian publisher to adopt this innovative solution, DER STANDARD paves the way for a new era in Austrian publishing.
Appsfactory, an official integration partner of Livingdocs since 2022, played a crucial role in the migration process, leveraging their expertise and experience to ensure a seamless and efficient transition. As part of their ongoing commitment to bring innovative solutions like Livingdocs CMS to new markets, including Austria, they are excited about future implementations of this technology. With a commitment to round-the-clock support, Appsfactory provides 24/7-365 assistance to DER STANDARD during the entire migration process, guaranteeing uninterrupted operations.
The cloud-based Livingdocs CMS, hosted on Microsoft's cloud platform Azure, offers unlimited capabilities for extensions while providing a fully cloud-based solution. This ensures flexibility, scalability, and a reliable infrastructure for DER STANDARD's digital publishing needs.
"We are thrilled to have partnered with DER STANDARD and Livingdocs on this transformation project," says Jan Nowak, VP of Media & AI at Appsfactory. "The successful and nearly trouble-free migration of 250 editors to Livingdocs in only 4 days is a testament to our commitment to deliver cutting-edge digital solutions on point. Our implementation has empowered DER STANDARD's team with a state-of-the-art headless CMS that streamlines workflows, enhances productivity, and revolutionizes their editorial processes. The exceptionally smooth transition, praised by the editors, allowed them to seamlessly continue their work."
Gabriel Hase, CEO of Livingdocs, shares this sentiment, stating, "We are grateful for partners like Appsfactory to support in the integration process and ensure a smooth transition for our valued customers. We are also proud to be part of DER STANDARD’s forward-thinking strategy and are excited about what the future holds."
The smoothness of the transition has been highly praised by DER STANDARD. Matthias Stöcher, Director Legal, Policy & essential Projects at DER STANDARD, expresses his satisfaction with the migration, stating, "Working with Appsfactory and Livingdocs has been a game-changer for DER STANDARD. The intuitive interface and advanced features of Livingdocs CMS have significantly improved our editors' efficiency, enabling us to deliver high-quality content to our readers more rapidly than ever before. The transition was remarkably smooth for all our editors, allowing them to continue their work seamlessly. This migration has cleared technological dead ends for us, and we are excited to have found a solution with our partners that makes us future-proof."
This migration represents not only a significant shift in DER STANDARD's operations but also a pioneering moment in Austria's digital publishing landscape.
