MIE Dashboard CRM Software Released From MIE Solutions July 2010

July 21, 2010 - PRLog -- MIE Dashboard is a revolutionary business management and collaboration tool.  MIE Dashboard is intended for businesses whose employees want to share information, collaborate, chat, manage tasks, and manage documents and files and other business related tasks.  MIE Dashboard can be used in organizations with thousands of users who want to easily manage their daily business activities.

Many businesses still do not use business tools that are available to help in collaboration.  That is why MIE Solutions has released a free version of MIE Dashboard that can be extended by purchasing additional widgets beyond task management, internal company chatting and document management.

Some of the widgets include

MIE CRM is a easy to use, multi-user CRM (Customer Relationship Management System) and estimating software.   MIE CRM was developed to make it easy to manage your accounts and present clean, concise and easy to understand quotes.   MIE CRM integrates other widgets of MIE Dashboard including task managment, notes, chat, calendar and much more.  The CRM has an API which allows 3rd party products to make use of its features.

MIE Docs is a revolutionary file management system designed for a single user up to an organization with thousands of users.  File management systems are designed to solve the problems associated with storing, managing, finding and tracking files used throughout an organization.  Organizations with hundreds of thousands of files lose files each day when files are stored on multiple computers, hard drives and backups.  MIE Docs File Management lowers the costs of handling and storing your documents and saves staff time by providing both instant access to your documents and business process automation.  MIE Docs centralizes the storage of files into an easy to use virtual drive.  MIE Docs has a seamless integration into Windows Explorer, which makes integrating with your documents in their native program simple.  Right Click, drag-n-drop, cut-and-paste are all available through the virtual MIE Docs drive.

MIE Docs Virtual drive is a technology that enables you to use MIE Docs as a network drive but the data is stored in SQL Server.  Enabling a virtual drive enables any windows application or dos application to make use of the files stored within MIE Docs.  MIE Docs does this by creating a local snapshot of the files, which will be used and maps a drive letter to these files. These files can now be manipulated like any other file on your computer system.  MIE Docs actions including checking in files, checking out files, adding files and file history are all available by right clicking on the file.  

MIE Files widget is a summary snapshot of files that you have checked out of MIE Docs, assigned files, files in progress by workflow and watched files. MIE Dashboard comes initially with the ability to manage 1000 files including version control, workflow, search capability and many other features. Please refer to the MIE Docs section of the manual for details on how to use this document management system.
Internal company chat that offers the ability to chat with any business associates without worrying about users chatting outside the company walls.  Chats can be associated to tasks and files.

The Tasks widget has four different options that show up they are My Tasks, Completed Tasks, Created Tasks, and Completed Created Tasks.  You can add notes to tasks as they are being completed and allow other people to check on the progress of the task.    

Full integrated workflow system for tasks and document management.  In order to handle change management for the hundreds of thousands of documents a user definable workflow capability has been added to the document management system.  Tasks also have a workflow where tasks will be forwarded automatically to the next recipient as steps are completed.

Sticky notes on your desktop are outdated, as you now have sticky notes on your computer.  These sticky notes show up as editable areas on the computer allowing simple editing.   Have you ever tried to share sticky notes? Well you can now because all the MIE Dashboard sticky notes are multiuser aware and can be pushed to other computers who are running MIE Dashboard.

The Journal widget allows anyone to keep any type of electronic information in a simple to use hierarchical interface.  Journals can be shared among users and have the option to be password protected.  Journals are user-defined databases that can store any type of information you desire.

The Calendar widget lets the whole company see what is on the calendar.  You can add reminders to the calendar which pop up when due and there is an option to add the Tasks widget to the calendar so that your Tasks appear on it.  Calendars can be shared and made private depending on your needs.

There is a full functioning CRM (Customer Relationship Management System) built right into MIE Dashboard. The CRM applications let you manage, track, give quotes and report on customer, contact, prospect, supplier and any other types of contacts.  There are five tabs: My Activities, Parties, Contacts, Products, and Reports.

MIE Trak ERP production planning software is fully integrated into MIE Dashboard for ease of communication and collaboration.  The MIE Trak Widget will refresh every 60 seconds giving you a real time overview of your company’s sales.
