WATERLOO, Ontario – November 19, 2024 – OpenText™ (NASDAQ: OTEX), (TSX: OTEX) today unveiled Cloud Editions (CE) 24.4 at OpenText World 2024, presenting a suite of transformative advancements in Business Cloud, AI, and Technology to empower the future of AI-driven knowledge work. This release delivers secure, AI-integrated solutions that strengthen data connectivity, streamlines workflows, and enhances human potential—addressing the needs of forward-thinking CIOs and business leaders navigating multi-cloud environments. 

As multi-cloud strategies become standard practice, enterprises are now leveraging them to enhance flexibility, reduce vendor lock-in, and improve resilience. Seamless data flow across an organisation’s cloud ecosystem is essential for data accessibility, informed decision-making, and operational continuity. OpenText Cloud Editions 24.4 provides the ideal foundation, supporting secure and efficient data movement across platforms while maintaining compliance and mitigating risk in complex multi-cloud setups. 

“OpenText Cloud Editions 24.4 is purpose-built to empower today’s knowledge-driven workforce by blending AI with secure, seamless data connectivity,” said Muhi Majzoub, EVP and Chief Product Officer at OpenText. “As AI becomes a key collaborator within organisations, this release gives CIOs and business leaders the capabilities they need to scale operations sustainably, drive competitive advantage, and achieve future-ready outcomes. With integrated AI solutions across our portfolio, we are equipping forward-thinking organisations with the tools to streamline workflows, optimise data use, and unlock new value across their multi-cloud environments.”

“As one of leading grain processors in Baltic’s and largest pasta producer in Northern Europe, Dobeles Dzirnavnieks was experiencing a period of exciting, rapid growth following multiple acquisitions, expanding both our geographic reach and product portfolio – unlocking valuable opportunities across Europe and beyond,” said Juris Mosans, Digitalisation leader at Dobeles Dzirnavnieks. “With this growth comes the need to streamline outdated processes, aiming for more standardised and efficient workflows. OpenText, with their expertise in information management, cloud, and AI, was the natural choice. Previously, we relied on labor-intensive, paper-based processes to handle thousands of invoices, supplier, and internal documents. Thanks to OpenText, we now have a centralised, secure platform that allows employees to quickly access the information they need in seconds. We’ve also reduced our paper consumption by 80%. This partnership marks the beginning of our digital transformation, and OpenText’s innovative solutions will be key in further streamlining our operations and driving future growth.”

Business AI: Today, data governance, compliance, and authentication are essential.

By enabling AI-driven assistants across large private data sets, the right people have access to the right information seamlessly. 

• OpenText™ Content Aviator with OpenText™ Information Archive (OpenText™ InfoArchive) empowers IT data managers to retrieve insights from legacy and archived content through an intelligent, LLM (large language model) chat interface.

• OpenText™ DevOps Aviator automates the conversion of video recordings into manual tests and defect reproduction sequences, using AI and LLMs, eliminating the need for coding. This innovation allows developers and testers to generate manual tests from hours of video footage in minutes, accelerating project timelines. The AI-assisted chat also enables rapid creation of actionable user stories, using OpenText™ Software Delivery Platform (OpenText™ ValueEdge), streamlining workflows and reducing the risk of errors.   

• OpenText™ Intelligence Aviator encourages a data-driven culture by providing enterprise users with LLM-powered capabilities to access, analyse, and visualise business intelligence data through natural language conversations, making decision-making more intuitive and user-friendly.
