MOBILT- SaaS targeting US home improvement market
Earlier this week, I spent some time talking to Gerry Gerber, CEO of Dallas, Texas-based GerberSoftwareProducts LLC, about his Software-as-a-Service MOBILT application. Gerry spent almost 40 years in the home improvement market (or as my US friends say: “remodeling”), and has applied that experience in recent years to creating a low-cost, simple-to-use, web-based service to support …

2012 on ExtranetEvolution: stats

Over the past decade or more, I have heard numerous construction people say they don’t really need to collaborate upon a document or drawing, they just need to share it quickly and securely with a colleague. For them, FTP (file transfer protocol) used to be an option; more recently, generic cloud-based storage such as DropBox …
