Speaker 1:
Our first webinar today is The Top 11 Things in version 11. And without further ado, I’d like to present to you, Keith Wayland and Mr. Richard Stout. Enjoy.
Richard Leigh Stout:
All right, thanks Jackie.
Keith Wayland:
Thank you, Jackie, for that wonderful introduction. And thank all of you out there today for taking a little bit of time from your morning to attend our webinar on the Top 11 Reasons to move to CloudSuite v11. This is an update on a speed session and we did at Infor just a couple of months ago, and really it could be called the top 11 things we’re excited about with version 11. There’s a lot to like out there, and we feel like this is an opportunity to bring some attention to some of that feature functionality and some of those business opportunities.
Richard Leigh Stout:
For sure.
Keith Wayland:
But first we’re going to turn the clicker on and then second-
Richard Leigh Stout:
But wait, there’s more.
Keith Wayland:
There’s more, I want to talk about RPI.
Richard Leigh Stout:
RPI Consultants, RPI Consultants, that’s us. I think a lot of our audiences is familiar and hopefully has had a chance to work with us before, but RPI Consultants was founded in the waning years of the Clinton administration and has seen a lot of ups and downs since then, but it has maintained as an independent consulting firm focused on Lawson and Infor Solutions. We’re super excited about CloudSuite and version 11, and we’ve had some great opportunities to get hands-on with the software early on. And we have a large team of trained and certified consultants who have gotten early access, have started on projects and are really looking forward to-
Keith Wayland:
Pushing the envelope.
Richard Leigh Stout:
To pushing the envelope and helping a lot of customers over the next few years, move on to this great new platform.
Keith Wayland:
Great. So that’s enough about RPI. If you want to know more about RPI, email questions at rpic.com and I promise Mr. Bill Getty will get back to you. Today’s agenda, we’re going to talk about 11. And that’s pretty much what we’re going to do. So without further ado, the number one reason to move to CloudSuite v11, get thee some mobility because it’s 2018, almost 19, and your CEO should be able to approve stuff on our iPad.
Richard Leigh Stout:
Yeah. I mean, it’s sometimes hard to remember that only a couple of years ago, our primary interface for our ERP system was shackled to Internet Explorer, [crosstalk 00:00:02:52], on our windows desktop. And Lawson’s come along way, it’s had a lot of browser compatibility, but still, the modern workforce demands a way to interact with the system, on the go, on a tablet, on a phone or just different ways of getting into the system. I mean, looking forward to even call in where we can speak and hear responses back or chat and get answers back.
Richard Leigh Stout:
There’s definitely a lot of different ways now that we interact with software that have moved beyond the desktop and this platform is built from the ground up to enable that. It’s not a bolt on, it’s not an afterthought-
Keith Wayland:
It’s a completely re thought UI basically.
Richard Leigh Stout:
Exactly. And it’s a technology foundation that was built to make that possible without a lot of extra effort from the developer’s part.
Keith Wayland:
So this UI has a completely different navigation that is role based, it’s intuitive, and this is what’s called responsive design. So it’s neutral what device you’re accessing it through that you can see that information and so forth. And we think th
