Comarch was honored with the Award for Innovation at “Innovationspreis 2008” because of its product, Virtual Consulting Services (VCS). This product enables web based end user collaboration. With awards in 33 categories, a total of 1600 products were in the running at “Innovationspreis 2008.”
The “Initiative Mittelstand,” which is an initiative for SME, is where the “Innovationspreis” annually awards solutions. These solutions primarily offer new application options for small and medium sized companies.
VCS was one of 10 products in the Web 2.0 category which particularly excelled in utility, innovativeness, and suitability for small and medium sized companies. In a joint session, VCS users will see the same content, mouse movements, and keyboard entries in their respective browsers as their fellow users. In this way, they virtually navigate together, simultaneously on one website. With VCS, the concept of synchronous co-browsing becomes a reality. Comarch’s solution closes the gap between real life social networks and those of the online world. It offers application options in the fields of e-commerce, e-consulting, e-learning, and e-government.
The VCS application may be used with heterogeneous terminals (PC, mobile, PDA, etc.) and is configured through a customizable client interface. Anna Filipiak, President of Comarch Software AG, said, “additional software or plug-ins need not be installed.”
This marks the second time Comarch has been the recipient of an award. In 2007, OCEAN GenRap, a solution for visualizing database analyses, won an award in the Reporting category. This product is now routinely integrated into Comarch Altum, which is a new ERP system that was introduced this year at CeBIT.
