inlevel Made Enterprise Software Directory Accessible Through Mobile Phones

Dec. 6, 2010 - PRLog -- Traditional way of enterprise software acquisition is quite long: from first thoughts about new software, through complicated research, industry data analysis, detailed descriptions readings, checking thousands of features and options, licensing details and internal and external meetings, bids and tenders to final contract negotiations and implementations. inlevel intention was to shorten first steps and to allow customers quickly transform their thoughts about business need to list of software related to interested them area.

Invention was based on simple observation: each business struggles with different issues which are characterized as totally unique to it, meanwhile it is possible to categorize the most business challenges using just five aspects:


1. What are we going to change or achieve? (benefit)
2. Where this change needs to be implemented? (business area)
3. What business processes will be improved?
4. What is specific to this issue taking into consideration the industry we are in?
5. How are we going to measure results of this project? – (Key Performance Indicators)

Once software products are identified there is good moment for customer to contact software vendors and show them what exactly customer is going to achieve. Having vendors answers customer can make specific for his organization next steps related to software purchasing.
