Speedera Teams With Omniture for Increased Business Intelligence
 
Speedera Networks, the emerging leader in global content delivery services, and Omniture, the leader in providing adaptable, next generation Web analytics to large, complex Web sites, today announced a partnership that will allow Speedera to sell Omniture’s award-winning product, SiteCatalyst™, as part of its comprehensive SpeedSuite family of services.

Under the terms of the agreement, Speedera will use Omniture’s next-generation Web analytics technology on behalf of its clients who are seeking a complete solution: site delivery services as well as Web analytics, from a single source. Speedera’s existing services optimize content delivery from the edge of the Internet; with the addition of SiteCatalyst, the company will be able to augment the SpeedSuite solution to include the ability to better understand visitor behavior on Web sites.

By quickly tracking and identifying factors contributing to a Web site’s success, marketers can refine their online campaigns and content based on better business intelligence, for even greater online revenues and enhanced customer satisfaction and loyalty. "When Web sites have unpredictable availability or slow performance, it can have a negative impact on user behavior. While Web analytic services and Content Delivery Network providers' site monitoring services each provide valuable information, there is greater value in correlating their metrics to see exactly where performance and uptime have an impact," said Bill Gassman, a principal analyst with Gartner Research. "The new insights can help enterprises target their Web site investments to where the resources will do the most good."

Speedera and Omniture both benefit by integrating their services into a combined solution and extending that solution to a larger market – improving revenues while strengthening customer relationships.Speedera and Omniture will integrate their product sets to allow users to have full access to all services through Speedera’s SpeedEye management portal. Omniture’s SiteCatalyst offered by Speedera is available immediately. Pricing is based on usage.

“Speedera’s content delivery services provide an unparalleled global edge for serving distributed content so that end-users get the content they want whenever they want it,” said CEO Josh James. “Omniture will provide the means to report that key additional piece – what happens after the click?”

“Omniture’s extensive experience with high volume, multi-site Web properties will be of great benefit to Speedera’s own customers,enabling them to delve into their metrics and discover new opportunities to improve their Web sites, the overall user experience, and the bottom line,” said Ajit Gupta, CEO and president of Speedera Networks. “The combination of both companies’ services provides a complete solution second to none and strengthens Speedera’s leading position as the fastest growing company in the CDN market.”
