Ignis Confirm Benefits of ICEflo

23 Dec 2009 00:00:00 GMT

Three months after subscribing to ICEflo we are delighted with the feedback received from Ignis Asset Management and their positive experience of adopting ICEflo. Bruce Paterson tells us more.

“Since adopting ICEflo, we’ve used the solution to quickly and efficiently define a series of structured implementation plans. While the ability to create solid pre-implementation checklists is very helpful, ICEflo delivers a powerful real time capability to monitor, manage and take decisions during a live change. The increased visibility in these scenarios is of significant benefit to our organisation."

"ICEflo is a well structured application with an intuitive user interface. It has proven easy to adopt and we have been impressed with the level of support provided by Agenor. As an organisation, they clearly understand our business and the importance of controlled IT implementation programmes."
