Actiance, a provider of compliance, security, archiving, and e-Discovery for all critical business communications, announced the launch of the new Actiance Technology Partner Program.

The Actiance Technology Partner Program allows Actiance partners to extend the reach of their solutions into new markets and to provide joint solutions that address customer's business and regulatory compliance challenges. Through the program, partners can integrate with the Actiance Governance Platform, export data to the platform, or import data from Actiance's products: Vantage, Socialite,and Alcatraz.

“Being more collaborative internally, and social externally, is not only a culture shift for most organizations, but a change that requires the adoption of new governance solutions,” said Jim Petty, vice president of partnerships and corporate development at Actiance. “As organizations make the transition, they need to ensure they still meet their compliance and e-Discovery requirements, not just for e-mail, but for all their critical business communications."

"The Actiance Technology Partner Program helps our partners assure their customers that new technologies can be used in way that allows their workforce to be collaborative and social while still meeting the most stringent governance requirements and regulatory mandates,” added Petty.

Building on Actiance's partnerships with enterprise platforms like Cisco, EMC, IBM, and Microsoft, and with social networks like LinkedIn, the new program also expands Actiance's partners to include more independent software vendors that help organizations in all industries better manage their business communications.

Bazaarvoice, Exterro, HNW, and PeopleLinx have also recently joined the Actiance Technology Partner Program.
