Inforbix Is Breaking Tradition and Improving Productivity
December 2, 2011
Holiday traditions like your Aunt May’s awful fruitcake may never change, but traditional product management systems are about to go through a major transformation. Companies like Inforbix are not only breaking tradition, but shattering it by focusing on multiple file types and tying an entire company’s product data together up into one impressive bow.
Most business apps focus on single category content such as engineering drawings like PDXpert PLM Engineering Software or document management such as OpenText Document Mangement. According to Inforbix, their apps
“are not meant to be an alternative to Product Data Management (PDM) systems; they will co-exist and extract data from them” and they will become the “’glue’ that connect all company-wide product data together in a meaningful and helpful way.” (see: Why Inforbix)
This type of technology is what companies are looking for. They want to multitask and increase productivity. We have to say that a management system that blends a range of information – from email to product drawings – is much more appealing than numerous single content apps. Inforbix has broken out of the fruitcake mold and become one of the finest cakes in the business!
