“In 2002, the company was looking for project-management software to help it keep track of its jobs, which can
”
stretch as long as 15 months. It found software from a top vendor such as SAP AG too expensive. Meanwhile, many
of the small-business offerings at the time didn’t have enough features to help the company accurately track revenue
flows over the course of a project. IFS Applications was able to install parts of its project-management software and
train Mr. Holik’s staff at a third of the cost of SAP software.”

” iPhone-iVista, maybe? Regardless, if your new interface is reminiscent of the newest products from
two of the biggest brain trusts in human/computer interface design, you’re doing something right.”

Ray Wang considers IFS one of the leading companies in the business with respect to user interfaces. “Neither SAP, its main
competitor, nor Oracle have come as far. The importance of easy-to-use interfaces is increasing as enterprise applications
are being used more widely and a new generation of users is entering business. Young people are used to the Internet,
mobile devices, and computer games. Enterprise applications will have to mimic these if they are to reach a wider audience,”
says Ray Wang.

“IFS Applications’ broad and comprehensive family of business applications meet many of the specific
needs of today’s project-oriented companies in key functional areas of their operations from contract
management to project management, and from engineering and manufacturing to finance and human
resource (HR) management. IFS’ vision and proven ability to draw together the diverse collection of
business data into a set of meaningful information that can be used in context to help project-oriented
companies plan and execute their projects more effectively is impressive.”
cImdata review — “product lifecycle management for project-oriented enterprises”
“Eighty-eight percent of all sales quotes are now generated and e-mailed to the customer automatically.
This has freed our support staff to work on more difficult projects... Prior to IFS, a machine could be
ordered with the wrong option or an option that may require additional kits for installation that were not
ordered. These mistakes might not be discovered until the machine arrives at the customer’s site, which
costs up to $10,000 to correct. Since the implementation, this is no longer a problem.”
destinationcrm.com — J&H machine tools, “Secret of my Success: A crm manufacturing makeover”
“Before implementing IFS Applications, it took 4-6 months to build one mobile welder, now (with IFS
Applications) it takes 45 days, allowing us to build 6-8 mobile welders in the time it used to take to build
one. This moved us ahead of schedule in delivering the mobile welders. That alone saved us enough
money to pay for the IFS system. In retrospect, the general manager of our welding business unit flatly
stated that we wouldn’t have stood a chance without IFS.”
