THE World Wide Web started its success
story over 20 years ago. On 13 November
1990 the first website went online. Though
first intended for scientific purposes, the web
was released to the public in 1993.
Albert Sedlmaier, manager of data M,
remembers: “I think that we started using
emails around 1992-1993. Before that,
there was telefax, which had come onto the
market just a few years before. In German
offices, it was only established in the late
1980s; so not long before email. data M
was founded in June 1987. At that time, a
sales representative came to the office to
sell such a telefax device. Before that, we
had to run to the post office for fax services.
And even earlier, everything was carried out
via letter mail and phone. Cell phones arose
in 1992. I well remember the first cell phone
we had at data M.”
Since its release to the general public,
the internet has been intensively used by
industry and economy for representing
companies. data M has been taking part
since 1997. Back then, it almost belonged
to the pioneers of the Internet in Germany.
“When I take a look at our first homepage,
I can see how inept and inexperienced
we were at that time,” said Mr Sedlmaier.
“Although the possibilities for designing
were limited compared to today. You can
notice technical progress in web design
by observing the evolution of our different
homepages. Today, we are able to interact
directly via Internet with our clients,” the
manager of data M explains. “This is of
enormous advantage for both parties. I am
thinking about our online training services.
Full calendars and different locations make
it difficult to send design engineers to
trainings. This is the reason why we offer
online trainings, so called webinars, as of
now. This way participants save time and
expenses. A specialist of data M, who leads
the seminar, and the participants meet at
the ‘virtual classroom’. All participants sit in
front of their own computers and watch the
demonstration on the screen. Of course,
participation is interactive, which means
that questions can be asked at any time.
This way, customer specific issues can be
handled directly.”
data M’s new homepage gives a light
and organised first impression, with good
information and easy navigation. A closer
look at the individual menu items reveals an
extensive variety of technical information,
with many details about the company’s
engineering services.
