DUBLIN, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macola Software, an ECi Software Solutions company, today released Macola 10.7, the latest version of its leading Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and business management software. Macola 10.7 revolutionizes the way customers extend and customize their ERP investment, expands the Macola ecosystem with new 3rd party APIs, and doubles down on user experience.
With a continued eye on improving the user experience, Macola 10.7 offers customers the convenience of accessing and analyzing data both in real-time and “at a glance,” giving them critical status updates at every step in the supply chain process. Taking into account the needs of its manufacturing and wholesale distribution user base, Macola also streamlined key processes within the platform, such as order entry, billing selection, searching and filtering orders, quoting and creating credit memos.
Macola 10.7 new features and benefits
Macola 10.7 offers
enhancements and updates that help to advance Macola’s main principles:
visibility and control of enterprise processes; configurable views into
real-time data; integration between business functions; and
accessibility at any time and on any device.
The key features and benefits of Macola 10.7 include:
1. The End of Version Lock
By creating a powerful and
flexible extension layer to the platform, Macola will virtually
eliminate the “version lock” that has plagued ERP systems for
generations. This will revolutionize the way customers think about
extending their ERP system—liberating them from the fear of upgrading.
2. An Expanding Ecosystem
Macola 10.7 continues to expand
the Macola ecosystem with yet another round of API coverage, including
hundreds of new API functions available for systems integrators to use.
Macola’s “expanding ecosystem” ensures visibility of real-time data and
control of enterprise processes through integrated third-party apps.
3. Doubling Down on User Experience and Streamlined Processes
Continued
Focus on User Experience – focusing on the UX, 10.7 has incorporated
convenience features such as “at a glance” status indicators that
instantly let customer service personnel determine the status of orders.
10.7 has also redesigned one of the more complicated aspects of Macola
10—the “features and options” configurator—which has been dramatically
simplified to increase speed and simplicity when getting orders into the
system. Lastly, with 10.7, customers who use multiple divisions can now
simply toggle between divisions without disrupting their workflow.
Streamlined
Processes – to further streamline processes, such as order entry,
billing selection, searching and filtering orders, the quoting and
creating of credit memos has been streamlined and simplified to closer
mimic the way people do their jobs.
“Macola 10.7 has further built on previous Macola 10 offerings with an eye towards simplification for our customers to automate and grow their businesses,” said Derek Ochs, director of development, Macola Software. “We’ve enhanced many processes to more closely align to the way people do their jobs. And by creating a flexible and powerful extension layer for Macola, we now offer customers the ability to add value to their ERP investment by tailoring their product to meet their specific needs, without the maintenance and upgrade headaches.”
