Livelink Migration

Mimtech have collaborated directly with the Open Text Web Solutions Group since Autumn 2007 to design and develop a Livelink Migration toolset and methodology to assist existing Livelink WCM Presentation Server (Obtree) users wishing to 'upgrade' to RedDot.

From face-to-face meetings and workshops in Wokingham, Koln and Hamburg to numerous online conferences the primary output from this collaboration is the Open Text Web Content Management Migration [From the Livelink WCM Presentation Server (Obtree) to the Web Solutions Suite] Methodology which has been adopted globally by Open Text.

The Open Text methodology for Livelink Migration includes the use of Mimtech's migration software mim:switch and along with, in Switzerland, Unic Internet Solutions and Infocentric Research AG and in Germany, Edicos Websolutions, Mimtech is an official Open Text Livelink migration partner.

Livelink WCM Presentation Server (Obtree) to RedDot License Swap

Undoubtably, one of the most compelling reasons for existing Livelink WCM Presentation Server (Obtree) users to consider moving to RedDot is the fact that Open Text also have a license swap policy which effectively does away with the need to procure a new solution as all you are doing is upgrading from one of their products to another.

Licenses are swapped on a functional aspect basis and this fantastic offer is available to users with an active maintenance contract.

Why spend £20k plus on another vendor product when you can get RedDot for free?

This could mean no procurement process is required to replace your existing WCM software because all you are doing is upgrading, migrating and subscribing to an annual maintenance license from Open Text as before.

Mimtech is vendor agnostic which means we provide independent WCM advice. Best of all, our migration software mim:switch is also agnostic and can be utilised as part of our proven migration methodology from Obtree or Livelink WCM PS to a number of target solutions including; Sitecore, Immediacy and EPiServer.

We're currently working directly with a number of other vendors to produce full feature 'loaders' into their solutions to improve the options for your Livelink migration.

Obviously, you have the option to stay on the Livelink WCM PS (Obtree) platform and moving forward Mimtech's specialist technical consultants are here to support you. Visit our 24/7 Support page for more information.
