A new user interface is introduced in COMBINUM version 2.5.
The design is sleek, clean and modern with inspiration from Microsoft's Metro interface.
The color scheme is consistent and contains few selected colors that gives a gentle impression to the eye.
The picture to the left gives a teaser for the new interface. It shows the controls for operations on a saved configuration.
However, COMBINUM's thousands of users can sit back and relax. They will easily recognize themselves in the new user interface.
The user friendly functionality is the same, even if there are lots of news under the hood, and the information is found in the same places as before.
Wittur Group is a world leading solution provider for components, modules and systems for the elevator industry and is just about to go live with COMBINUM.
You can find their elevator components in the most iconic buildings in the world, including Apple Store in New York, the Empire State Building, the new Beijing National Stadium, the new Auditorium in Astana, Kazakhstan, and the Turning Torso in Malmo that, with its 190 meters, is the highest skyscraper in the Nordic countries.
The implementation of COMBINUM has been followed by the Italian reseller Pivotal Italia. It features not only a configurator but also an integrated customer relationship management system, Pivotal CRM. The complete solution goes under the name of WEST - Wittur European Sales Tool.
One of the challenges of this implementation is that the configurator is maintained by different Wittur production sites around Europe: door systems in Italy, electronic drives in Germany, lift cars in Turkey and complete lift systems in Spain.
Every production site updates, tests and releases changes in their product lines independently in the configurator without having to coordinate with the other sites. To solve this issue, the configurator data is replicated product by product from the development environment to the production environment.
All Wittur products manufactured in Europe are scheduled to be implemented and released in WEST during 2013.
Configurator warm up
It's not only us humans that can need a good warm up before activity - the same goes for configurators.
COMBINUM reads all product data just once from the database and the data is then available in the memory of the web server. This applies to parameters, rules, prices and everything else the configurator needs in order to work.
A pre-requisite for good performance!
But in version 2.5 of COMBINUM we take this functionality to a higher level. The configurator can warm up by preloading all product data already before any user starts working in the system.
The COMBINUM application starts when the web server starts and reads all product data automatically.
When the first user logs into the system after for example a nightly reboot the configurator has already warmed up and is ready to run at the highest speed right from the start.
