Customer of the month - NovaLIS Technologies

NovaLIS Technologies (www.novalistech.com) that specializes in GIS-integrated land records software and services, uses Soffront CRM to track software defects and improve customer support. 

According to Mike DeCoffe, Quality Control Lead, NovaLIS has been using Soffront software for years, but not to its fullest potential. DeCoffe acknowledged that the current implementation of the software has been extremely successful. 

“Six months ago I took over the project and completely changed the way we used the defect tracking module. I had experience using approximately five competing products, which I considered implementing; but as I learned about Soffront, I became intrigued by its flexibility. I was easily able to customize the software by building a customized workflow, adding individual fields, creating new forms, and changing dashboards for each group using the software. The web-based capability of the software is especially important because it allows us to access the database from anywhere – while traveling or working from home after hours or on  weekends. We also really appreciate the dashboard and gadget customization functionality and the robust search and reporting capabilities.” 

Six separate divisions at NovaLIS use Soffront CRM: development, quality control, change control, product management, customer support, and professional services.
