Hubspan, a leading provider of integration solutions for cloud-based businesses, recently released its top five industry predictions for 2012. This and other industry leaders anticipate that increased adoption and integration of cloud computing will influence how companies carry out efficiency solutions this year.
An overview of the Top 5 Cloud, IT and B2B Integration solutions projected by Hubspan:
- Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems will focus on integration networks targeting niche markets.
- Global economic uncertainty will continue and will subsequently bring companies closer to existing customers.
- The increasingly consumer-centric nature of IT will drive real-time visibility tools for customers.
- Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in the cloud industry will remain compelling.
- On-premise apps will be integrated to the cloud as enterprises gain confidence in cloud systems.
What Hubspan's predictions tell us is that real-time visibility will remain important, as will customer service and tools for vertical markets. That’s good news for Netfira customers.
Achieving REAL-TIME Supply Chain Visibility Made Simple
At Netfira, we recognize that every business is unique. Our goal is to make it easy for our customers to manage their individual business processes.
The Netfira solution consists of two modules: Netfira Seller and Netfira Buyer. The Netfira Seller module is installed on the seller’s server and integrated with their back-office ERP or accounting/inventory system such as SAP, Oracle, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics GP, Fishbowl, QuickBooks, and MYOB. This integration enables buyers to view inventory levels, customized price points in REAL-TIME, and provides order automation. The Netfira Seller module is configurable and customizable to meet the seller’s business requirements. Orders generated and transmitted by buyers are automatically inserted into the seller’s back-office system, eliminating the need for manual data entry and instead facilitating order automation.
