Indigo8 is available in two versions, GARMENT and PGS (Premium Goods System).
The garment version is a component driven solution, capable of storing all fabrics and trims for a style. Other dependencies such as colour and sizes are also catered for; this increases the ease of style creation, sampling, orders and other things which non-industry systems have difficulty with.
The PGS system is suited to products that come in a single size and one or two colours such as toys, household goods and promotional products. These products could also be developed and managed in the garment system or vice versa.
Many systems can store styles and create orders for apparel products and finished goods. Indigo8 no longer focus our attention on these features. Instead our concern is how to communicate the operations of a company to the people that need to know.
Each year our customers help us create effective tools that assist people in their daily work and help make them better at their job. Organisation is a common result of using Indigo8 and being able to access information from anywhere is a fundamental benefit that few of our competitors have.
These benefits flow from the foundation Indigo8 is built on, not using a web based solution means access outside your office will be either limited, non-existent. Customers and suppliers wont have direct electronic access, which is helpful for outsourcing work and introducing new services. Our web platform has none of these draw backs and allows companies with many offices, suppliers and staff who frequently travel access to information whenever they need it.
100% Web
All our systems are completely web based. Servers are currently located in Hong Kong, China, Philippines and the USA to deliver our feature rich interface. Australia and London will come online in 2009.
100% Custom
The Indigo8 platform can be tailored to align itself perfectly with your company’s needs. Every screen can be modified, new screens added and business rules changed to match your requirements.
100% Industry Specific
Indigo is specialised in the apparel and finished goods industries with detailed experience in all aspects of the business including merchandising, design, accounts and so forth. When you talk we understand and can translate your wishes onto the computer screen. Too often we come into companies that have ventured outside industry experts. The result is an extended implementation time and non user-friendly interface.
Indigo8 is a platform
that is flexible enough to allow almost any custom changes required, all built around a single base. In fact indigo8 has become far more than just a place to store style sampling and production information. It is the ultimate communication tool that connects all your offices, suppliers and customers.
PC and Mac
How many of our competitors run on both PC and Mac? Indigo8 is the only one.
Running the system Indigo8 is built using the Microsoft ASP.NET foundation and SQL Server for it’s database. You can either run the solution from your own premises or let us host it for you
Rent or Buy
we give you the choice of either renting or buying indigo8.
Is indigo8 sold in modules
No it is not, the only choice you need to make is what system you choose to buy GARMENT or PGS. Currently all modules that exist and everything that will be built in the future are included in your licence fee. The only things not included are customer specific custom jobs and items built for the system you are not signed up for.
Language
Indigo8 can be run in almost any language, each customer can have up to 5 different languages running at any one time, this allows users in China to view the system in Chinese while users in London view the same system in English.
