Merlin Connect for system integration

Utilizzi software diversi per gestire la tua azienda?
Hai difficoltà nell’organizzare e reperire le informazioni tra i vari reparti aziendali?
Ti piacerebbe che i dati venissero trasmessi in automatico da un software all’altro, semplificando così le operazioni quotidiane?

A system integration project aims to create an IT structure that improves the management of business processes by making it more comprehensive, collaborative and efficient.

Merlin Connect software is designed precisely for this purpose.

.FUNCTIONS

Merlin Connect’s functions are suitable for all system integration projects, from the simplest to the most complex.

Connecting your systems

Merlin Connect uses the most common software technologies (SQL, .csv files, .xml, etc.) to create interconnection systems that allow data to be transferred from one platform to another to meet your individual business needs.

Data transmission

Thanks to Merlin Connect, we create a system that continuously exchanges data between software using automated transmission processes. Moreover, Merlin Connect is also compatible with any output system.

E-billing

Merlin Connect can also generate XML files for e-billing, extracting information from the databases of any management system already in use.

Database creation

All information tracked by Merlin Connect is entered into special databases that can be re-used at a later date for statistical purposes or to develop further integration processes.

.BENEFITS

Process optimisation

Software integration systems such as those created with Merlin Connect enable companies to improve internal operations and have an overview of their processes. This is extremely useful, as they can identify possible bottlenecks in operations and the flow of information from one department to another and promptly address and resolve them.

Data Storage

The databases created by Merlin Connect act as real “repositories” for the data collected. No information is lost and it can be shared by company departments or consulted at a later date.

Coordination between
business areas

“Closed” and inflexible systems lead to common problems such as difficulty in retrieving information or, on the other hand, repetitive operations (e.g. manual data entry). Having a centralised IT system allows company departments to improve coordination, with benefits for the entire business.

.FAQs

What features does a software need to be included in a system integration project?

In order to be interconnected, a software system must allow data to be sent to and received from third-party programmes.

What data are transmitted?

Whatever you decide. Each software system has different characteristics and functions so provides different data and procedures. You choose what information to transmit based on whatever you want to achieve.

How is Merlin Connect installed? Do technicians need to be physically present on-site?

Merlin Connect is ready to use: as it is a cloud service, the software can be installed remotely without technicians having to visit your company.

This means you can use Merlin Connect wherever you are and, should you need assistance, there are no travel costs.

How long does it take to install Merlin?

It can be up and running within a few days, after analysing how to create the connection using the technologies supported by the software systems.
