Ikon's Digital Express 2000 has been around for 3 years with many customers already on board. However, the company has delayed a full promotion of the ASP solution while adjusting key features and watching adoption rates. The delay related to making sure there was a complete solution working in real, diverse environments for an extended period of time. Sources say Ikon's complete ASP will go right up against printCafe, Noosh and others in the e-procurement print space.
Sources say the company has kept a low profile because of market conditions.
Their development plans have always been in the 3-5 year timeframe. Actually, they've been very methodical watching others go down and waiting to pounce. Basically, we are selling a very robust eProcurement solution with digital asset management abilities to the industry. It solves many problems that face our competitors and opens the door to adoption. Barb Pellow, Ikon's Senior Vice President of Marketing has kept the vocal presence of Ikon's e-solution in the media.
