TORONTO, ON, January 09, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Lynx Systems Inc., a consulting and IT solutions organization for real estate, is pleased to showcase Microsoft SharePoint Solutions designed specifically to handle the concerns of the real estate industry. Now, Yardi Software and MRI Software users can find answers to document management, workflow and compliance concerns through the SharePoint Solutions offered by Lynx Systems Inc.
These solutions allow users to efficiently track and manage the vast numbers of documents required to ensure compliance with all of the contractual and legislative requirements affecting their company. Lynx Solutions also help improve clients' relationships with staff, tenants, business partners and suppliers. This is a critical issue that cannot be solved by existing accounting systems, but needs to be addressed directly to allow companies to save money and to run more effectively.
Don Robinson, President at Lynx Systems notes, "After years of working with real estate clients, I've noticed a common trend. It's the ongoing struggle to effectively handle huge numbers of documents - insurance certificates, leases, contracts, invoices, resident files, checks, etc."
The sheer volume and variety of documents creates many challenges and questions with:
Control/Access Issues - Who can see the document? Who can edit the document? Is this document SECURE? Does everyone that NEEDS access to this document have ACCESS?
Versioning - Is this the CURRENT version?
Emailing - Where in my inbox is this document? My inbox is HUGE! What version is my email attachment?
Repetitive Document Generation - Creating this document from scratch every week is so REPETITIVE!
Documents getting lost in the process - Did I email that document? Who did I email it to? Was it emailed on time? Has it been approved yet? Where do I send it to next? Who needs to see it?
Finding documents - Where do I FIND this document? Who do I have to ask and whose time do I have to waste?
Documents in multiple locations - Now I need to store my documents in multiple folders so that multiple departments can find them. What a hassle!
Real estate - Amount of square footage required to store the hard copies can be costly.
Don states, "For over a decade, Lynx has been providing the best in support services for property management software users including: support, training, customizations, assessments, installation of updates, integration of 3rd party software, monitoring, hosting and conversions to name a few. Although these services continue to be a major focus for us, we have been increasingly using innovative technologies to increase our clients' efficiency."
Don continues, " Since many of our clients have similar concerns, we work with a technology that will offer them the solution - SharePoint. We currently provide a variety of SharePoint Solutions that have been specifically developed for the Real Estate Industry that effectively solve for document management problems."
