This contract underlines the positive continuation of our long history of working with NXP. We believe that the migration will go seamlessly and that the new infrastructure will perform to the complete satisfaction of the customer".

With Axway's Synchrony Transfer we have found more than a mere replacement, the solution offers us a future proof platform for our growing file transfer requirements. Through Atos Origin we get Synchrony Transfer delivered as an on demand service, bringing us the price / performance and flexibility we need at NXP."
