Integration is everything

We believe integration is everything
A single system can never do everyone that a customer needs, nor wants. We firmly believe that we are good at what we do, and realise that there are others like us in complementary areas that a really good at what they do too! So, the more we can come together, the better off everyone will be.
Multiple ways to talk
There are many ways systems can exchange information - live links through SOAP Web Services, REST API's and XML responses, JMS, batch file transfers, CSV files - and the list goes on. We can support many or all, however the best way to start is simple and standards based - we all like to REST, so let's REST together?
Start niche & let the data flow
The key to any integration and data exchange is simple & small to start with. Together we need to work out the key entry point for our data into each other's system and build a standards based, supportable connector that benefits our customers.
