At Microsoft`s Office XP first anniversary celebration event in the UK held a few days ago, Access Accounting Ltd was praised by Microsoft, in recognition of its excellent use of XP Smart Tags.
The event at St Martins Lane Hotel in Central London featured Access as a provider of advanced business intelligence solutions, based on Office XP technology.
Access MD Alistair O`Reilly, one of a select handful of speakers at the event, explained how implementing its XP Smart Tags solutions in-house had enabled Access to:
* Develop a complete new business intelligence application.
* Help customers recognise trends in their business.
* Provide seamless integration of business activities.
"XP Smart Tags have changed our life," commented O`Reilly. "We have responded by building them into solutions that are available and affordable for everyone. It is a critical part of our business strategy."
Access` knowledge management solution Executive Desktop uses XP Smart Tags to recognise data, XML to deliver data and XSL to display the data. It merges all the latest technology to deliver trends and statistics to companies that have never been able to afford to have such information so readily available.
"Management is nothing without measurement," comments Paul Marketos, MD of ASYST International, Access distributor in southern Africa. "The use of Smart Tags in the Access Executive Desktop module gives management key performance indicators in real-time, enhancing their decision-making abilities."
"Access have innovatively shown how Smart Tags can take you way beyond the static document stage to inter-active real-time documentation that is essential for modern business practice," added Mike Pryke Smith, Group Marketing Manager with Microsoft.
