Cube 3 Media (www.cube3media.com) has radically improved its business processes and information-management abilities through a FileMaker solution called JobPro Central (www.jobprocentral.com), developed by Softouch Technologies.
According to Karl Barker at Cube 3: “It took us a long time to find the right software for our business. The size of our company and the budget for the project ruled out the opportunity to develop a bespoke system. When we came across Job Pro Central it seemed like the ideal solution, giving us a system that not only could be customized to our working patterns, but which delivers to a level way beyond our expectations.”
David O’Donnell at Softouch Technologies said: “JobPro Central is business-management system that boosts productivity without limiting creativity. JobPro Central will organize any company or individual that’s job-, project- or manufacturing-based. It is fully customizable, supports Windows and the Mac, and improves productivity by centralizing business processes such as contact, job and time management, budgeting, scheduling, order processing, invoicing and employee management. We wouldn’t have been able to offer this functionality without developing it in FileMaker. Also, FileMaker’s flexibility and ease of use means that our customers can modify JobPro Central to completely map onto their own business processes.”
In the case of Cube 3, the company has been able to streamline its approach to project handling, time billing, and contact management through exploiting the inherent power of FileMaker through JobPro Central.
“To us, JobPro Central is the hub of all our management information,” says Barker. “We needed a solid platform to ensure that our long term information collateral is not compromised. It was a clear objective for us to ensure we used reputable software, and we could find no better than FileMaker. We love the way JobPro Central uses the power that FileMaker offers and it seems to have limitless development opportunities. We have no doubt that it will return its investment quickly. If you have a design-based business, I can’t recommend JobPro Central highly enough”.
Customer-relationship management is simple and customizable.
