Dillistone Systems Announces Record Month for FileFinder Anywhere Implementations

800 upgraded and new licences installed on the FileFinder Anywhere platform in May 2016 alone

Dillistone Group Plc, the AIM quoted supplier of software to the recruitment industry, is pleased to announce that May 2016 was an exceptionally good month for system implementations in its Dillistone Systems division.

Since the launch of FileFinder Anywhere in September 2014, the Dillistone Systems division has seen an increase in both new system sales and client retention rates; the latter being principally through system upgrades from former iterations of FileFinder to the new FileFinder Anywhere suite. The Board noted an acceleration in the Division’s new business sales in the first quarter as part of its most recent trading update.

May 2016 saw what the Directors believe to be the highest level of implementations of licences in the 33 year history of the business with over 800 upgraded and new licences installed on the FileFinder Anywhere platform. This is a testament to how well the new FileFinder Anywhere suite is being received by both new and existing clients.

Jason Starr, Chief Executive of Dillistone Group Plc, commented:

“We announced a month ago that our Dillistone Systems division had enjoyed an exceptional start to the year, with a 70% increase in our new business order book, as compared to the same period in the previous year.

“I’m delighted to say that our implementation teams are working – literally – around the clock to deliver on this growing demand and May 2016 saw us move over 800 users onto the FileFinder Anywhere platform. This is certainly one of the best months in the history of the Division. More and more existing clients are upgrading to FileFinder Anywhere while more and more new clients are choosing FileFinder Anywhere over its old fashioned, purely Windows based, competitors.”

“We’ve implemented systems this month for users on 4 continents. The users are made up of new implementations at green-field clients through to upgrades for existing clients. Implementations include everything from newly formed search firms to established businesses switching to FileFinder from our competitors. We think we are in a great place.”
