IndustryBuilt incorporates a number of Microsoft technologies. Consistent with Microsoft's vision of integrating the right technology for the right task, IndustryBuilt is powered by the following tools:
 |
|
MS Dynamics NAV is a fully integrated ERP offering used by over 80,000 companies worldwide. In fact, it is often referred to as the fastest growing ERP software in the world. IndustryBuilt was one of the first NAV solutions to receive the CFMD certification. This standard requires IndustryBuilt to fully comply with Microsoft’s standards for design, development, quality, and documentation. Audited by a third party, IndustryBuilt's functionality has to be validated by a minimum of 10 live customers to achieve the standard. |

IndustryBuilt offers customers the option of deploying MS Dynamics CRM to address Sales Force Automation, Opportunity Management, and Marketing Campaign requirements. IndustryBuilt also uses CRM for tying together the workflow and communication requirements in its Electronic Lab Notebook system. While NAV does have native relationship management functionality, Dynamics CRM may be preferred by companies that have a remote sales force who are frequently offline or disconnected from the network, or who have users who live and die by MS Outlook. The two systems are fully integrated through Web Services. |

IndustryBuilt uses SQL Server 2008 to provide customers with a high degree of scalability and performance, as well as reporting services capabilities. |

 |
|
SharePoint 2010 is used for a number of workflow, document management, reporting, and communication requirements at IndustryBuilt. Through the use of Business Connectivity Services, SharePoint provides customers with the option to deploy a streamlined user experience for infrequent users. |

Microsoft Office products including Word and Excel are heavily integrated at IndustryBuilt. As users are familiar with these tools, they are comfortable on all of IndustryBuilt's products as well. |
