edge IPK Introduces edgeConnect 5.0

edge IPK, a provider of insurance-specific, user-experience solutions that enable a secure, browser-based presentation layer to provide all distribution channels an ideal user experience, announced the launch and immediate availability of edgeConnect 5.0. The new solution offers insurers the ability to configure multi-channel applications in a fraction of the time and cost associated with traditional methods, the company says.

With a growing number of businesses looking to develop multi-channel applications, and with demand from end-users for more complex and fully featured Web offerings, edgeConnect 5.0 has been designed to focus solely on the presentation layer to enable carriers to deliver richer individual online experiences.

Included in edgeConnect 5.0 is support for external, customized and out-of-the-box widgets, a host of presentation and usability elements to support dynamic presentation behavior, graphical reporting and automated documentation. The development environment also has been enhanced to streamline the development of the presentation experience and to assist in enforcing presentation standards across development teams.

“User experience is at the heart of edgeConnect 5.0, both in terms of the platform itself and the online applications it is used to configure,” says Dharmesh Mistry, CTO of edge IPK. “This version of edgeConnect delivers an even more comprehensive set of benefits, and a more significant scope for customization to make the configuration process as straightforward and flexible as possible. edgeConnect 5.0 empowers non-technical business users to rapidly build Web applications that differentiate a company through its online presence and breed customer loyalty.”
