Four Soft Builds for Global Business Growth with Progress OpenEdge 11 Application Development Platform BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Logistics software specialist, Four Soft has selected the Progress OpenEdge 11 application development platform from Progress Software Corporation (NASDAQ: PRGS) as part of its plan to achieve strategic international growth.
By enabling multi-language support for its 4S eTrans SME freight management system, Four Soft is taking an important step towards company growth by allowing it to offer its solutions on an international scale. Currently, Four Soft helps more than 400 customers and more than 60,000 end-users on a daily basis. As a result of using the OpenEdge 11 product, Four Soft will be able to expand this support to a truly global audience.
In addition to the multi-language support, use of the OpenEdge 11 platform has also provided Four Softs customers with new features, such as the ability to monitor Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), real-time messaging and automatic renewal processes. It has also provided a drag-and-drop feature that allows developers to work collaboratively by easily moving documents. As a result of the multi-tenancy functionality of the Progress OpenEdge 11 product, Four Soft was also able to cost effectively move the application to a safe cloud environment enabling customers to access data at any time and place.
The Progress OpenEdge platform helps Progress Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Partners, such as Four Soft, build dynamic, business process-enabled applications for secure deployment across any platform, any mobile device and any cloud. The OpenEdge platform has evolved over the last 30 years incorporating new technologies such as multi-tenancy, data encryption and auditing, security and compliance and user-interface flexibility.
Four Soft recently received the EMEA Partner Award during the Global Progress Partner Conference in Las Vegas for its demonstrated success and ability to stay ahead of industry demands using the latest Progress technology.
