ERP Solution Developer adopts WPF and rewrites business model
Priority
13 WPF is an innovative web-enabled ERP solution based on Microsoft
.Net3.5 development tools: WCF, WPF and Expression Studio.
Priority 13 WPF provides not only a cost effective solution with extended
functionality, but also secure “anytime, anywhere” access to the organization’s
ERP application.
“The
attractive UI and its enhanced usability, including unparallel navigation, user
level interface layout design and information retrieval capabilities, encourage
traditional "computer shy" Elbe employees to
become more involved and committed users of the system. What we could not
accomplish in terms of user participation through years of persuasion, this new
interface has brought about in a matter of days. The flexible design allows each
user to configure the UI to their specific needs, which I believe this will
maximize utilization of the system’s full functionality”, Shmulik Senderowich,
IT Manager,

- Leading Technological Solutions Ltd.
Eshbel employs advanced Microsoft technology to revolutionize the ERP user
interface, integrative tools, and SOA. The original code of the software’s
functionality continues to run uninterrupted behind the new web interface.
Priority customers who have developed customized software adaptations over
the years can migrate to the web-interface with a few simple clicks of their
mouse, without investing a single minute in programming or testing.
Developments in the Speed of Light
Using Microsoft's innovative technology enabled Eshbel to complete new
developments at record speed. These new developments include a wide variety of
built-in administrative tools and accessories capable of replacing a number of
established auxiliary programs like BI, BPM and more. This is a significant
reduction of additional add-on components or software.
Eshbel’s development team went beyond imagination: built in KPI indicators,
advanced "slice and dice" capabilities and the sophistication of a true BI
solution including data cubes and customizable dashboards are all available at
the end user's fingertips. Priority's easy to configure rich BPM modeler enables
end users to set triggers and thresholds for key workflows and processes which
can be activated with a simple click..
Drag and drop graphic report generators, synchronization of CRM activities such
as tasks, contacts and to do lists, connectivity with other entitles (e.g.
banks) not to mention an HTML interface generator, are all aspects of the
program which have been enhanced with the use of the new technologies available
from Microsoft.
New Face, New Flexibility
The new business tools as well as the enhanced capabilities of other modules are
fully integrated with the core ERP application, facilitating immediate
deployment with no further programming necessary. These tools also includes a
software development kit (SDK), enabling customers to further expand the
functionality of each tool within the application where desired.
End-User Benefits
With Priority 13 WPF, Eshbel has achieved an array of unique
abilities and advantages:
o
The ability to work securely with the application from any location using a web
browser, without the need for additional software such as Terminal Server, which
is truly revolutionary.
o
The WPF interface, which powers an unusual user experience and user level
customization capabilities, conveying considerable visual innovation: vector
graphics, dynamic objects, special effects, a high degree of color control and
personalized design.
o
An arsenal of management tools built into the system, which are easily and
immediately available to users without the need for any further programming.
Marketing Advantages
As part of the new sales model customers can opt between different platforms –
on-premise and hosted, and different licensing options - the traditional one
time payment, a per-user monthly subscription and SaaS (which includes a hosting
fee).
Galit Raviv,
Eshbel’s Online Marketing Director, cites the marketing advantages of
Priority 13 WPF’s advanced capabilities: “It appears that Eshbel has
introduced a breakthrough in user experience using RIA (Rich Internet
Application) technology, and created a new standard of integration in the world
of ERP. The additional SaaS-based pricing model of Priority 13 WPF
makes Priority a truly attractive alternative for customers.
Installation is instantaneous, the software and upgrades are centrally managed
by Eshbel, and costs are directly correlated with the scope of use.”
“The
latest version of Priority has already provided increased international
exposure, which is helping us form partnerships with new VARs (Value-Added
Resellers) overseas. Our technological and financial advantages have enabled us
to dramatically improve the software’s sales and implementation model, while
noticeably increasing the reward to our business partners. Consultants and
implementers can go a long way in meeting special requirements that are not
provided out-of-the-box by using Priority's SDK and upgrade capabilities that
preserve private customizations through Service Pack installations and
Upgrades.”
