The MultiValue (MV) resource shortage and the constant need to provide modern systems accessed by desktop and mobile devices are pushing customers to consider their systems strategies in growing numbers.
We are seeing a significant trend toward customers looking not for just a way of modernizing the UI of existing legacy systems, but for a clear path to providing the latest functional solutions their customers and partners require.
We are also seeing a growing recognition of the years of development effort that have been put into their legacy systems and a reluctance to invest the time and expense to replace all or part of these systems/databases. Even so, companies do recognize the need to transform and innovate their applications to stay competitive, and it is here that Evoke is able to assist.
For Evoke’s MV customers, all have retained their databases without any changes being necessary and all have made use of Evoke’s unique code-hook facility, allowing them to incorporate and retain their existing code and subroutines directly in their modernized and enhanced systems. In this way they have been able to significantly improve and transform the capabilities of their existing application while expanding the channels to reach their staff and customers.
Evoke has continued to evolve to ensure a feature-rich experience on all desktop and mobile devices and up-to-date user interfaces by utilizing the latest industry standard software. Additions this year have seen greater use of AI, the introduction of progressive web apps, extensive security options, and enhanced functionality and widgets across the system.
In addition to the product, we have been successful over recent years in producing developers/designers that are proficient in both MV and .NET. Recruitment is based on employing motivated designer/developers who are skilled in one discipline but eager and able to learn another. This success has led to BlueFinity offering enhanced service packages which provide support and development resources to our customers to help them in all areas of their MV and Microsoft systems.
