Formjet Innovations has partnered with M&S to produce an exclusive new range of software products designed to support the home and office computing needs of M&S customers.
The range is available to buy in the Technology departments of selected M&S stores nationwide and online.
Formjet, a specialist in alternative software solutions, is initially providing five titles: M&S Internet Security with Back-Up Software; M&S Office Suite and Internet Security with Back-Up Software; M&S Office Suite with Antivirus Software; Greetings Card Maker and Clipart Collection Software; and Driving Test Software.
Formjet is well-known for creating popular own-brand home software ranges for both Tesco and Woolworths and regards this latest agreement with M&S as a further seal of approval for the quality of its products and services.
David Hennell, Group Development Director at Formjet Group plc, said: “Our partnership with M&S and the brand endorsement that it brings us is true testament to the high quality and good value of our software solutions and competence of our back-end support. We are delighted that the range will be available in M&S, making the products accessible to their wide-ranging customer base.
“The individual titles within the M&S Software range have been jointly and carefully selected to provide the widest appeal. Internet Security and Antivirus are of course crucial today to ensure protection of any user’s system online and every household needs a complete suite of office applications. Equally, if help is needed with an upcoming driving test or if customers want to get creative and design their own individual greetings cards, M&S now offers ideal solutions to those needs as well.”
In store, M&S Software will be sold alongside a growing range of Home Technology products including laptops and PCs, creating a natural marriage of solutions for customers. High-tech products already being sold in M&S Technology departments include among others, laptops, digital cameras, printers, gaming systems, mobile phones and iPods.
Customers will have access to full technical support via a dedicated website which will be managed by Formjet Innovations and will include product information, links to email support and the facility to renew annual subscriptions. As well as email technical support, Formjet will deliver second-tier telephone support to users on behalf of M&S, with calls being transferred by the store’s own customer services team.
