Solarsoft has announced Tropos 4.0, the latest version of its ERP system for medium-sized process oriented manufacturing businesses. Tropos 4.0 features a number of technological and functional improvements, including true thin client technology delivered across the web, allowing organisations to deploy Tropos not just in the factory, but wherever business takes them.

Tropos 4.0 has been built to meet the increasing demands and requirements of today’s process manufacturers. The latest version of the Tropos solution has been developed using a new technology stack, built with the latest Microsoft technologies to provide a fast and efficient user interface, which is simple to implement and maintain.

Andy Brown, managing director of Solarsoft’s process manufacturing division, explains, “Solarsoft’s relationship with its customers has meant that Tropos 4.0 has been designed with the customer in mind and is a precise fit for use within their individual verticals. Keen to capitalise on the familiarity and ease of use associated with the latest Windows 7 offering, we have also re-designed the complete look and feel of Tropos 4.0 to reflect the new Solarsoft house-style. Using Microsoft technologies to their fullest extent means Tropos 4.0 can be quick and easy to implement and use, and intuitive to learn. Tropos 4.0 is said to allow customers to enjoy the benefits of Tropos in a short time possible, reducing RoI periods.

Brown continues: “Not only will this latest release help our customers take Tropos beyond the factory, but we are also launching a number of additional products to make companies more agile, such as Tropos ProActive which takes true workflow into the manufacturing environment.”

Brown concludes: “We are delighted to be launching Tropos 4.0 and about the new capabilities that this and the other products in our portfolio will bring to our customers. This is the first delivery in a customer driven development road-map, which will see us provide immediate and forthcoming benefits that bring business improvements, and provide the services and support our customers’ need.”
