WEEK IN BRIEF- 14-19 February,2011

Quote for the Week

Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things. –Winston Churchill

Criticism can be constructive or demeaning. It depends on how we take it. At times criticisms can throw light on a negative aspect of ours which we had never known. Honest criticisms can help bring about a positive change in us. They can also be taken up as suggestions for initiating a new system or strategy. So criticisms can play an affirmative role in our lives. Always keep an ear out for criticisms to understand whether it is helpful or not. If not, just ignore it.

News@ IPSR:

• eZcom’s legacy:

eZcom has been IPSR’s first software product. It is infact the baby of a team of software developers who had been with IPSR right from the year of 2000. It was developed in Kerala by our software development team within a span of five years making it an indigenous software. We can proudly say that eZcom has completed more than 6 years into its existence as a leading Accounting software. Considering its strong presence as a user-friendly Accounting package, the eZcom brand has been playing well in the market with more than 1000 installations to its credit. One of the facts worth highlighting in this scenario is that a significant number of clients have been using eZcom for around 4 years. Of these, 5 clients have gone into their 4th installation. It is also great to know that more than 12 clients have taken the 3rd installation. All this again and again solidifies eZcom as a user-friendly product ensuring pure customer satisfaction.

Of course the credit of it all goes to the eZcom team involving the technical, customer support and marketing members for putting up a good work all these years.
