Epicor Software has launched the Epicor Productivity Pyramid, a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) software that according to Epicor empowers IT professionals to access, leverage and extend the reach of data parked in Epicor’s Enterprise Resource Planing software.

A prepared company release said the software is built with Epicor’s service-oriented architecture (SOA), the three complementary tools are designed to increase individual efficiency and group collaboration by making information easily accessible to knowledge workers. Each component of the Productivity Pyramid works together in harmony to extend the value of the investment Epicor customers make in enterprise business software.

According to a recent report by Cindy Jutras, vice president and group director at Aberdeen Group, “users of enterprise applications spend 25 per cent more time using desktop productivity tools (such as word processing, spreadsheets and e-mail) than they do using business applications. Companies are seeking to improve access to business data through the convergence of these two categories of applications.”
