Case Study: mateco Group streamlines global document generation with iText DITO

mateco Group scales document generation to 6 million with iText

mateco Group, a worldwide supplier of rental working platforms, faced a challenge in its cloud-native, multi-cloud environment. Their Q.One IT team needed a modern PDF solution to integrate with a new streaming architecture that connected their Microsoft Dynamics ERP on Azure with custom apps on Google Cloud. The initial PDF system created complexity and technology mismatches, so they sought a flexible, containerized solution from vendor iText.

The solution implemented was iText DITO, a low-code, template-based PDF document generator with a browser-based editor and a powerful API. This allowed mateco's business users to design and maintain their own templates, aligning with their "zero touch, zero footprint" mantra. The result is a system projected to generate 1.2 million documents in 2021, with a goal of 6 million after a full worldwide rollout across 15 countries. iText's product successfully integrated into their streaming architecture, and the partnership expanded with the creation of a new company, Cymo, to commercialize the platform.
