  SISTRADE® PRINT IS AVAILABLE FOR THE INTERNET EXPLORER 7  
 


Interview with Filipe Correia Technical Director of SISTRADE


Much is said about the IE7, but which are the advantages of using this navigator?
There are many advantages in migrating from version 6 to 7, especially in two basic points, Security and Interface. Internet Explorer 7 helps keeping your information safe, by alerting you of potential phishing sites — sites that seem legitimate, but are in fact conceived to obtain your personal information. It is also easier to see which sites allow safe data exchanges, so that you can effect online purchases and bank transactions with confidence. Internet Explorer 7 makes use of a new interface that shows more of the web page it visits. The toolbar has a simple design, which makes it easier to add websites to your favorites, to search the web, to clean the historic and to have access to the tasks and tools that you use most.


Is SISTRADE® Print already available for the IE7? Which are the advantages and disadvantages?
The use of the most recent version of the Internet Explorer is not only necessary, it is almost an obligation for any software manufacturer that presents its product in a web platform, because in this situation it is always Microsoft who determines the way. As a disadvantage there is only the fact that the users have to get used to the new interface. But I see as great advantages the fact that a larger area of visualization is available to sail in the SISTRADE® Print, because there is a better organization of the "menu bar", as well as being able to use the application in a single window. We are in a phase of transition of Operative Systems, and with the appearance of the Vista as the distribution system of the new pc's and, using Vista the IE7, we had obviously got to effectuate the respective alterations in the SISTRADE® Print to support this Browser.


Is SISTRADE® Print safer and faster with IE7?

According to some tests, SISTRADE® Print is faster, especially in options that require great amounts of calculations, for instance estimating and planning. As for the safety, because our solution is a portal, we inherit all the safety properties that the Browser can offer.


What kind of necessary minimum requirements does the user need to execute the IE7?
The requirements are the same that were necessary for users with the IE6. There is no need to make any upgrade in your PC, you only have to go to www.microsoft.com and make the free download of the IE7.

 

 

MOBILITY IN THE SALES FORCE ACTIVITY

 

 

The technological solution Sistrade® PRINT automatizes the selling strength, because it influences the performance of the commercial function and has as consequence an impact in the other functions of the  company. The Sistrade® PRINT tools allow the salesmen to find new potential customers, to record requests of estimates through the web, to view the customer’s current account, through an InterNet access with a portable computer, cellphone, hand held or PDA, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, without necessity of additional support staff.
The commercial information will be available in any part of the world, at any moment, through a simple click, thanks to this technology’s mobility. The company can thus, through the CRM (customer care relationship management), keep information on the customer’s contacts , financial information, information on projects or orders that the contact has with the company, special prices and competitive information, at the reach of the working selling team. This application is 100% WEB based, and that fact gives the managers the possibility to follow closer and more quickly the performance of his working teams and to detect emergent chances. These conditions allow the selling team to offer a personalized service, while the managers concentrate themselves in the improvement of solutions to increase the performance.
