“We are excited that PROSTEP has chosen Covisint as its technology partner,” says David McGuffie, Covisint president and COO. “Accessing applications, such as OpenDXM GlobalX, with speed and security can provide a competitive advantage to manufacturing organizations. AppCloud was developed due to the high demand in the marketplace to reduce the complexity of accessing applications required for conducting business. With AppCloud, Covisint is uniquely positioned to bring best-of-breed solutions to users’ desktops in its global manufacturing ecosystem, thereby increasing the speed of accessing applications for end-users, and shortening the sales cycle for application providers.”
