The Foundation for a Growing Company?
Infor SyteLine: A World-Class ERP Solution

The heart and soul of a manufacturing ERP solution relies in the foundation it is created on. Like a house, an unstable or limited foundation yields the same for any structure that is built on it. In the technology world, downstream issues with an applications foundation are commonly called “systemic”, meaning they are pervasive throughout the entire application.

However, when the foundation is so solid, open, and extensive that it embodies the ERP system that it’s built on, the sky’s the limit. Infor SyteLine ERP is precisely that system.

Built with the user in mind, the supporting technology (codename “Mongoose”) places the complete power of the development technology in the hands of your company. Mongoose in its simplest form makes creating, updating, and personalizing applications a breeze. Leverage the power of the expansive “personalization” capabilities of Mongoose, along with complete customer roll-forward personalization technology. Mongoose technology delivers full roll-forward of all personalization from service pack-to-service pack and version-to-version.

Everything created with Mongoose technology is 100% Microsoft .Net. That includes its SQL Server base as well as every screen and piece of code. Mongoose is simply developer/user-facing functionality that makes fitting the software to anyone’s unique needs faster and easier. Eliminate any middleware from impacting the capabilities or speed of the application for the user.

With Mongoose, SyteLine offers unique personalization technology designed to fit the intricacies of your industry. It does this while conforming to the uniqueness you have built into your specific company operations, providing you with industry differentiating competitive advantages. No software application can build in every company’s competitive advantages. First of all, it is an impossible task. Second, no company could differentiate itself from a technology perspective. Therefore, Infor created what you need to leverage your industry’s differentiating competitive advantages. You will find it all in Mongoose. We deliver best-in-class results.
