IQNavigator pioneered services procurement software, and was the first to roll out an application with the ability to handle all categories of services spend such as contingent workforce, facilities management, IT services, professional services, outsourced/off-shore projects, field services, marketing, print services, and more, on a global basis. Buying, receiving and paying for services is fundamentally different than buying goods from a catalog, and IQNavigator8 was designed from the start to optimize the end-to-end lifecycle of procured services.
Designed for large enterprises, IQNavigator's configurability per business organization allows clients to determine the best processes, data and workflows for each service category and geographic region, while providing global visibility and roll-up reporting
As a true Software-as-a-Service application, IQNavigator8's multi-tenant architecture gives customers a far better ownership experience than on-premise software applications. While delivering substantial hard-dollar cost savings, IQNavigator8 also provides fast time to value with little up-front investment and a low cost of ownership, ensuring a payback period within a few months and a phenomenal ROI.
More importantly over time, clients gain ever-increasing functionality and value from the software with continuous free upgrades, and no risk of being orphaned on an old version of the software.
One of the few emerging "Enterprise SaaS" platforms, IQNavigator has solved the two big questions about SaaS: customization and integration. Beyond configurability, IQNavigator8 provides implementation teams the capability to simply describe complex and unique behaviors for such areas as approval workflows and user-interface screens, and IQNavigator8's processing engines deliver the customer-unique functionality on a single code base. In addition, integration-by-description allows the implementation and client teams to easily integrate at dozens of touchpoints with IQNavigator8.
Finally, IQNavigator8 is built on enterprise-class technologies, for this highest levels of performance, availability, and scalability. While many solutions started as departmental solutions on insecure Windows technologies, IQNavigator8 was built from the beginning exclusively with Java J2EE business logic running in BEA Weblogic, using Oracle databases and Sun Solaris servers.
