IFS Applications 9 launches at IFS World Conference 2015

New version of IFS Applications features major enhancements in user experience,
architecture and functionality

IFS (http://www.ifsworld.com/), the global enterprise applications company,
today launched IFS Applications™ 9 (http://www.ifsworld.com/en/solutions/ifs
-applications/IFS-Applications-9), the new core version of its extended
enterprise applications suite. IFS Applications 9 delivers customers true
business agility by bringing them closer to their business and by providing them
with the flexibility to capitalize on change. This is thanks to innovations in
user experience, new features, enhanced configurability, and a new layered
application architecture.
New to IFS Applications 9 is:

  · IFS Lobby—a clear and tailored view of the business or situation as it
relates to a role or process. IFS Lobby is fully customizable and presents at-a
-glance, actionable information relevant to each unique user. This UI
improvement makes IFS Applications 9 easier and faster to use, bringing users
closer to their business, no matter whether accessed on a desktop, tablet, or
smartphone.
  · IFS Streams—a notification system designed to keep you close to the pulse of
your business by posting relevant updates and actions to processes, relevant to
individual users.
  · Layered application architecture—specialized extension and customization
layers that streamline and drive cost out of modifications to the application.
Technical staff can now spend more time adding value to your business rather
than administering customizations.
  · Embedded CRM—providing truly embedded CRM capabilities, IFS Applications 9
makes business data accessible to the right people at the right time, enabling
better decision making and customer service.
  · Enhanced support for global business—new capabilities for group
consolidation, improved support for matrix organizations, and a host of other
improvements that help global businesses capitalize on their size and reach.

“We are very proud to present IFS Applications 9, which brings a large number of
new features, a fantastic user experience, and over 500 enhancements to new and
existing customers,” said Thomas Säld, SVP of Research & Development at IFS.
“Promoting business agility has been our guiding principle during the
development phase, which means major investments in areas such as a better
solution fit for the industries we serve, creating insight through
visualization, collaborative tools, user configurability, and layered
application architecture, among many others. Combined with flexible deployment
models, IFS Applications 9 is uniquely positioned to help companies capitalize
on the pace of change in global business.”
