An Update on QBos

Well I must say that things have progressed very well lately. A new version of Qbos rolled out about a month or so ago and what a huge improvement. the new GUI is actually pretty and eye catching. Not to mention some of the interface changes making navigation a bit easier.

What's even cooler though is the new EPS editor. Drag and drop WYSIWYG process management, it doesn't get easier than that. A completely new build which makes adding steps in the processes much easier and more intuitive, not to mention easier on the eyes as well. Kudos to their design staff.

Even cooler than that is the new SOAP interface. Now developers can utilize the power of Qbos inside their own applications. I have yet to build anything** that uses it yet but it looks very promising. A current project of mine, AmState.net will be using this tool. Look for another writeup once we get into it.

Ok now for the inside scoop, (I hope I don't get into trouble for sharing this). There is a new version of Qbos rolling out near the end of the year that is friggin sweet. It has a complete virtual desktop with unlimited windows. Yes. This means that sys admins can lock a user to this application only and streamline production in the work environment. No more solitaire when the boss is out. I look forward to using this new tool.

All-n-all, QBos is coming along very nicely and I am starting to enjoy working with it. So if you are in need of process management software(EPS), Customer Relation Management(CRM), and a way to make your office life a whole lot easier, delivered in a Software as a Service(SaaS) platform, then take a look at QBos, and yes they fixed the "www" issue. That is another thing I have to give these guys credit for. If ever an issue arises, they are on top of it and they are not afraid to receive input from their customers.

**Update: I intgrated thier shopping cart and User profile data via the Soap interface without a problem. And yes I sprinkled in a few extra keywords during this edit. Not becuase they asked me to, but becuase I think they are that cool.
