Rikkert is founder and director of Xillio. He started his company out of frustration with a migration project he worked on at that time. There must be a better way, he thought, and it involves automation. That’s how Xillio was born in 2004.

After 14 years, Xillio has grown into an international organization with over 40 employees. Xillio has developed powerful software for content migration and content integration. With this technology and services, we help organizations worldwide to get the best value out of their content, regardless of where it is stored.

Rikkert's blog posts focus on the business case of automated content migration and about the benefits of content integration.
