Plug-in architecture will increase user base and retains customers in long run

Customizable Plug ins the best you can witness in an open framework architecture, third party developers and system integrators can bring their best creativity to enhance the product, this is good news for customers so they are less dependent on ERP vendors to cook up every single feature and wait for next release, now they have the ability to get it done or buy plugins developed for their industry.

Interprise Suite plugin architecture is cutting edge technology in ERP software, where one can write customizable plug-ins and plug it to mother ship and it works seamless, this attracts customers, resellers and developers in creating a software community.

Plugins such as DS Data Explorer from Dimesoft, US payroll from Lerryn, Products Attribute Plugin from Digital Group, SEOptimizer from InfoSourcing are some of the examples of custom solution developed by partners.

We at InfoSourcing have developed our own custom "SEOptimizer" tool, this powerful search engine Optimization tool compliments the e-Commerce module and helps business owners rank organically on search engines.

So in nutshell ERP vendors need to create platform for growing their user base and create a community experience to satisfy the market needs and truly Interprise is sailing in this direction.

Tips for Installing Interprise Suite on Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition

If you are one of those who love challenges and dare to explore so you decide to install Interprise (IS 5.3) version on Windows Server 2008 then read this post before you attempt.

Firstly be aware of Windows Server 2008 its user interface is different compared to Windows 2003 and its purely 64 bit machine so you need buffer time to learn and execute your steps ....

Ok here we go...
1. Firstly read Bill dimes blog for installing Interprise Suite e-Commerce on Windows 2003 server. We need to do few steps in 2008, this blog helped me to get started ... Read Win 2003 instructions

2. Do Step 1 and Step 2 as per Bill's instructions, stop before you do step 3, why?
Since you're using Windows 2008/IIS 7.0, you no longer need to use aspnet_regiis
to set the .Net Framework version you want your application to run against.

What you do in IIS 7 is set the runtime version for the Application Pool your app will run in.

You can do that in the IIS Manager's User Interface or, programmatically.

Change from DefaultAppPool to Classic .Net Pool and this should enable you to run all .Net apps built to use Win 32 bit on 64 bit machines.

3: Do an IISReset and launch ISE (Interprise Suite E-Commerce) for Windows 2008 version
