Top 10 Benefits of Using SWING InOffice

SWING InOffice delivers immediate benefits both to business users and IT department.
 

1    Meet the needs of today’s business users.

Today’s users expect to be able to use their familiar MS Office applications within the Lotus Notes environment, for document authoring, reporting and data analysis. SWING InOffice seamlessly integrates Lotus Notes and MS Office.

2   Overcome limited printing and reporting functions in Lotus Notes.

Using Microsoft Office rich formatting and printing capabilities, Notes users are able to produce professionally formatted documents, reports and charts.

3   Reduce repetitious and inefficient data entry.

Employees have had to either re-enter Notes data in Excel spreadsheets for analysis, or copy/paste data to Notes documents from incoming attachments, which tends to make the work inefficient and error-prone. It does not have to be like that!

4   Enforce consistency of corporate forms, letters, reports and other documents.

SWING InOffice has a document template repository. It is much easier to achieve consistency when all forms and reports are centrally managed.

5   Leverage existing skills and investments. Reduce training needs.

Use an existing tool that users are familiar with – Microsoft Office. Take advantage of advanced features in Excel such as PivotTables, conditional styling, and drilldown to analyze Notes data without having to purchase specialized OLAP tools.

6   Ease the burden on IT department.

Empower business users to create their forms and reports in MS Word and Excel. Bind these templates to Notes data using InOffice. As a result, users will be able to quickly change their forms and reports by themselves, and you will save countless hours of maintenance. Users will appreciate new possibilities including ad-hoc reporting, interactive data analysis, creating serial letters, and much more, without relying on overworked IT staff.

7   Distribute documents securely and easily.

Use InOffice to store, print, fax*, or email the newly created documents. Electronically distribute the documents, either in the native format or as PDF documents. There is no need to purchase and install any additional PDF tool, since SWING InOffice uses a built-in PDF converter.

8   Point-and-click integration.

It is not necessary to be a Notes developer to fully employ SWING InOffice. It does not require any programming or database design changes.

9   Easily deploy and maintain SWING InOffice throughout your organization.

Deployment is as easy as sending an email to end-users.
