Saxotech obtains Data Sciences

Saxotech, a publishing company based in Tampa, acquired Data Sciences Inc., a Maryland-based firm. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

DSI software allows media companies to track a number of key financial indicators, including subscription revenue, readership demographics, and media distribution. Along with that software suite, Saxotech will add DSI's current employees. They will continue to work from DSI's former office in Laurel, Md.

“Media companies are looking to utilize fewer vendors in order to gain large-scale advantages from both an integration and cost-of-support point of view,” said Mark Ganslaw, president at DSI.

Saxotech works with more than 600 media companies across the globe.
