CAN YOU INTERFACE SYNERGEE WITH PROVIDER SOFTWARE? IF SO, HOW?

The SAAS mode allows the duplication and standardisation of APIs. Synergee has used them to enable greater interaction with service providers.

They enable the data contained in the service providers’ software to be interfaced with the data expected in Synergee.

The service provider no longer has to do double planning. For example, as soon as the date of the intervention is scheduled in its software, it is updated in the customer’s Synergee environment.

Exchanges are made by :

  • Flat file via ftps
  • JSON via WEB API
  • Loading application

HOW DOES YOUR SUPPORT SERVICE WORK?

For each customer, a technical referent is appointed.

The support team is responsible for answering questions asked by the customer, which may be of different kinds:

  • relating to the use of the solution – how do I do this?
  • relating to an anomaly observed
  • relating to a request for improvement
  • relating to a system operation (data restoration, mass action)

Requests are made directly online from Synergee.

DO YOU PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION TO OUR IT DEPARTMENT?

In parallel with the training for users, Synergee’s technical team will review the configuration options with the IT teams and will then write the analysis booklet, which will address functional, technical (interfaces, platforms, production, testing) and organisational issues (deployment mode, testing strategy).

HOW DOES SYNERGEE DEAL WITH SECURITY?

The servers of the Synergee platform are hosted on the Microsoft Cloud (Microsoft Azure data centres), which is an asset for speeding up the provision of the solution and for having a great deal of fluidity in our exchanges with our clients.

Indeed, the power of the servers, combined with its great flexibility, allows our developers to create solutions adapted to the requirements of our various partners.

Each year, several intrusion tests are carried out to ensure that your data is in the most secure environment possible.

The environment is both encrypted (SSL encryption) and compatible with standard browsers.

Backups of your data are stored at several secure physical sites to ensure continuity under all conditions, even in the event of a natural disaster.

ARE THERE ANY PREREQUISITES FOR USING YOUR SOLUTIONS ON MY WORKSTATION?

No installation is required, as the software is hosted on the internet.

Below are the supported browsers in their current and previous versions:

  • Chrome
  • Edge
  • Firefox
  • Safari

The following operating systems are supported

  • Windows 10
  • Mac OS
  • Android
  • Ios
IS THERE A LIMIT ON THE NUMBER OF FILES THAT CAN BE DOWNLOADED AND/OR HOSTED?

WHERE IS THE DATA STORED?

Backups are stored in two physical locations

  • Ireland (Dublin) (Production and backups)
  • The Netherlands (Backups only)

In case of failure of the primary site, the continuity plan is ensured by the secondary site with an RTO (Recovery Time Objective) of 24 hours

HOW DOES A USER IDENTIFY HIM/HERSELF?

On Synergee, you have two ways of identification:

  • The first one consists in using your login and password
  • The second is to use the SSO (Single Sign-On) configuration, which allows our customers to use their own user directories to control authentication in Synergee. This means that if a user is already authenticated in the company’s network, he or she will be automatically connected to Synergee, without having to enter any additional information. You will no longer have the risk of losing or forgetting your password, and this will save you precious time.
HOW IS THE INTEGRATION OF PRE-EXISTING DATA INTO SYNERGEE CARRIED OUT?

We set up gateways for mass imports, but we can also use data in excel format, or finally propose integration templates if you wish to integrate certain information manually.

CAN I BUY ONLY THE MODULES THAT FIT MY NEEDS?

The module that serves as the backbone is the repository module which, as its name indicates, references all your sites. Thereafter, you can add the modules that meet your needs without having to take all 13 modules.

On the other hand, even if nothing obliges you to do so, our modules communicate with each other and create value for the network. That’s why we recommend the set of modules that meet your needs for a state-of-the-art management solution.
