APTIFY RELEASES VERSION 5.0
Aptify, a leading international provider of association and member relationship management software, other vertically-focused industry solutions and the acclaimed Application Lifecycle Platform for .NET announces the release of Aptify 5.0.
Aptify’s Vice President of Research and Development Ravi Nagarajan says, “The new release strikes a balance between advancing the underlying technology of the Aptify Application Lifecycle Platform and developing new business application functionality requested by our clients.”
Ensuring that customers can seamlessly migrate forward is of equal importance to advancing the technology. This includes making sure customers are not left behind on dated or obsolete platforms. Since product inception, Aptify has provided its customers with an upgrade path that has met this goal. Aptify’s robust upgrade infrastructure allows client configurations to migrate from one version to the next with much less effort than systems of similar complexity.
While the Aptify 5.0 release contains a significant amount of new functionality, it is built upon the solid foundation created by the Aptify 4.0 product. Aptify 5.0 also takes full advantage of Microsoft .NET 3.5 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008. Many of the user interface capabilities originally introduced in 4.0 have been greatly enhanced. An example is the addition of Role Based Profiles which provide Aptify customers with nine profiles that can be associated with different user types such as Order Entry Clerks, Membership Processing, Event Management, Shipping/Receiving, Accounting, Executive users and more. Aptify’s flexible architecture makes it possible to easily tailor each user experience for different types of users.
Another goal met by the new release was to embrace the latest presentation and navigation techniques employed by Microsoft. Aptify 5.0 now uses the Ribbon Navigation concept present in Microsoft Office 2007, so that the user experience is seamless between Aptify and familiar applications such as Outlook and Excel.
Nagarajan says, “The Aptify Client Community provided significant input for the 5.0 release. We are looking forward to receiving additional community-driven input for 6.0 and beyond. The Aptify Client Community represents a valuable source of input and directly shaped the capabilities that are now available in Aptify 5.0."
