ABBYY, a leading provider of document recognition, data capture and linguistic software, and Sigma, a value added distributor of specialist technical, development and business software, announced today a distribution agreement in the UK and Ireland. The relationship with Sigma is designed to create market awareness and demand for ABBYY products and increase customer reach through the existing distribution channels in these markets.

 

“Sigma is delighted to be partnering with ABBYY who we believe offer ‘best in class’ solutions in the document conversion, data capture and linguistic market. We will be introducing ABBYY to our entire customer base as their products already have good traction within a large number of verticals including government, finance, healthcare and education,” says Jane Silk, Head of Vendor Relations Sigma software Distribution.

 

Sigma will carry a range of ABBYY retail products including desktop OCR software ABBYY FineReader Professional Edition, ABBYY FineReader Corporate Edition and ABBYY FineReader Express Edition for Mac which turn paper documents into editable data, productivity tool ABBYY PDF Transformer, linguistic software, and large-volume document conversion product ABBYY Recognition Server. In addition to boxed software, Sigma will also distribute download versions of ABBYY products.

Both individuals and large enterprises can benefit from the increased productivity and reduced costs that result from using ABBYY products,” explains Dave Evans, Sales Director for ABBYY UK. “Sigma has been very successful over a long period in the retail distribution market and we are genuinely happy to be teaming up with them. Their strong relationships will help bring ABBYY products to new customers and markets.”
