Unburden Your Business

Many companies have to deal with the unprecedented impacts of COVID-19, resulting in an increased focus to keep their core business running. As a result, our Managed Services Functional (MSF) department sees a higher demand of organizations asking for help on their functional support for JD Edwards.

In our upcoming livecast, you'll discover:

  • How to get insight into your company's support needs with the free-to-use Quistor Functional Support Calculation Tool.
  • Examples of functional support that can substantially benefit your business.
  • How other organizations have handled their increasing support needs.
  • Deep-dive into three important pillars of our MSF offering: Testing as a Service, Orchestrator, and Self Service Password Reset Portal.
MSF

Testing as a Service

Quistor is an expert in automated testing, which reduces the key user effort dramatically. We help you write and/or change your automated testing scripts using the Dimension SwifTest tool (DWS). Arrange and manage the scheduling of these tests during important events (e.g. tools release upgrade, SIT, CRP, UAT).

Orchestrator

Orchestrations are used for integration and automation challenges. This is very useful for recurring tasks e.g. order entry where the same fields always need to be populated. With Orchestrator the process for entering orders can be fully or almost fully automated, which means that it reduces time for a user to almost 0%.

Self Service Password Reset Portal

An easy-to-use tool that enables end-users to reset their own password using a web portal, which saves your IT department as well as your helpdesk time and money.
