SoftCD provides the ability to deliver high-quality, up-to-date
electronic catalogues to your customers overcoming the file size and speed implications of
a traditional Wed-based catalogue.
SoftCD provides:
Single source updating of presentations, product information and competitive analysis.
Fast, remote updates to computers in the field so that changes are seamless.
Compatibility of with any Windows applications.
...all with minimal training and no need to learn more about computers
In short, SoftCD puts you back in control:
In control of data flow - you decide when new information is required in the field and
you know all the sales force has the same, the most recent information to hand. You know the answer to that tricky
question is to hand or can be downloaded in minutes.
In control of priorities - there is no need for sales executives to visit the office to update information, so
they can be more client-focused.
In control of support costs - every mobile computer has the same information, the same version and the same file formats.
Uniformity reduces costs.
How you use SoftCD
SoftCD requires no programming and is simple to use. The steps are:
1.
Distribute your marketing encyclopaedia containing presentations,
product information or competitive analysis to your sales force on CD-ROM.
All the information is readily available to run on a laptop computer at the client's site. This makes
it easy to answer questions and close the sale.
Any set of files, in any Windows compatible file format, can be a SoftCD
publication.
2.
Publish updates.
When information requires updating, the administrator uses SoftCD Publisher to publish the
updates to the CD-ROM as Amendment Files. SoftCD's unique Epsilon Technology
includes only the changes in the Amendment Files and then compresses the file size
further.
3.
Download the amendment.
At the customers' convenience, the Amendment Files are downloaded. One click starts the
download.
Download times are typically minutes, some 10 to 100 times faster than with competitive
products.
4.
Keep working.
When the sales executive next accesses any information on the CD-ROM, the latest
information is displayed. The SoftCD Client uses the Amendment Files to make it appear as if there is a revised CD-ROM.
