By DE Editors

Omnify Software has announced the next generation Empower PLM solution, version 5.0. This product release boasts a browser-based platform that the company says further enhances user accessibility, system performance and scalability to support the product design and development needs of small to midsize manufacturers.

Product enhancements include:

• New browser-based platform: All Empower modules have been transitioned to web browser applications, eliminating any client installation and expanding operating system/platform support.
• Performance improvements: New platform and algorithm developments have had a performance improvement on many common operations such as authentication, Change/ECO processing, Bill of Material viewing/reporting, etc.
• Multiple language support: New XML “dictionary” support provides multiple language support and customizable vernacular to the application forms without having to install multiple application instances.  Each user can select from a different language dictionary.
• Enhanced integration: The new platform provides enhanced integration across all Empower modules as well as third-party applications.
• New graphical reporting engine: Standard reports and a customizable reporting engine have been provided to help create bar graph, pie chart, Pareto charts, and line graphs.
• Streamlined User Interface: Many forms have been redesigned to further improve readability and simplify navigation.

“We are very excited about Empower PLM 5.0,” says Chuck Cimalore, CTO for Omnify Software.  “This release represents a pivotal turning point in our technology with a new product platform that improves system performance and scalability, and opens doors for various delivery models.  The platform also provides us with an enhanced development environment that will allow us to respond quicker to customer demands as well as easily build new modules and interfaces.”
