Background
Wired and wireless bandwidth is expanding at a rapid rate. The cost of internet
connection and mobile data communication is getting much cheaper. Business management
software is in its new wave: Web services-based applications, hosted on centralized
servers, offer the promise of simple, consistent interfaces with low client requirements
and good manageability, which helps businesses make (or save) money more effectively.
Sage is a leading supplier of business management software and services to 5 million
customers worldwide. In the UK alone, Sage provides software and services to over
650,000 small and medium sized businesses. The two mainstream products are Sage
Line 50 (Sage Instant) and Sage 200 (MMS), which covers over 300,000 businesses.
However, like most business management software on today's market, these two products
also have no web and mobile front ends, which cannot meet today's mobile commerce
market requirements.
With deep Sage products development knowledge, web application development and mobile
application development capabilities, eX4e has developed web and mobile clients
(Windows Mobile, Nokia S60 with Symbian and BlackBerry) as well as integration engines
for accessing Sage 50 (Sage Instant) and 200 (MMS).
eX4e mobile working solutions extends Sage 50 (Sage Instant) and 200 (MMS) from
Windows only applications to web and mobile enabled applications.
eX4e solutions help mobile and remote workers overcome the physical, cultural, and
technological barriers that often limit productivity. eX4e solutions enables people
to seamlessly access their Sage system information anytime and anywhere via internet
web browsers and mobile devices. eX4e solutions increases productivity and increases
customer satisfaction while reducing an organisation's operational costs.
