D-Tools continues to “improve and refine its suite of solutions for better business operations and productivity across all departments within an organization.” These new features and capabilities to D-Tools’ latest versions of its flagship on-premise System Integrator (SI) software and next-generation Cloud platform will be demonstrated to ISE 2024 attendees at Stand #2L500.

D-Tools Showcases Newest Generation of D-Tools System Integrator (SI), Version 21

At ISE 2024 D-Tools will demonstrate new features of the latest version of its System Integrator (SI) business software platform, Version 21 (v21). The enhancements to SIv21 include a suite of powerful new project management and documentation capabilities, plus quicker, easier categorization and selection of products within the SI database. SIv21 ensures the accuracy of data, enables greater scheduling precision, simplifies bulk data management and even reduces eye strain, among other features designed to improve efficiency and profitability.

Key Features of System Integrator v21:

Enhanced Documentation and File Organization:

• The ability to add files or links to products, such as spec sheets and installation manuals, streamlines documentation within the D-Tools System Integrator (SI) platform. A new reporting function links these files to project files, which enables more organized, efficient management and retrieval of documentation.
• Streamlined Closeout Process: The feature’s extension to closeout documents provides a streamlined process for delivering final documentation to clients. Clients receive all necessary files, contributing to customer satisfaction and project closure efficiency.
• More Comfortable Visual Interface: Newly implemented is a dark mode to reduce eye strain and fatigue and improve focus, especially during prolonged periods of screen time.
• Enhanced Scheduling Precision: The ability to choose specific labor types when adding items to a task enhances scheduling precision, accuracy of project timelines, better project planning, and optimization of resource allocation.
• Bulk Data Management: The import/export functionality for checklists using CSV files simplifies bulk data management and ensures consistency in task execution across projects to reduce the likelihood of errors and improve the overall project quality.
• Client and Vendor Merge: The ability to merge clients and vendors helps eliminate duplicate entries, ensuring data accuracy within the system and making it easier to find and work with relevant information.
  Vendor-Specific Selection: The ability to filter the “Add from Product Library” by vendor partner streamlines the product selection process and helps users easily identify and choose products from their preferred partners.

Now available to integrators in the United Kingdom, D-Tools Cloud, a web-based multi-OS solution, combines a powerful suite of business management tools, including several recent new additions debuting at ISE 2024. D-Tools Cloud expedites the generation and throughput of proposals, enabling integrators to close deals faster and move on to the next project. The platform’s facilitation of dynamic, engaging multimedia proposals and browser-based visual quoting enables closer collaboration with clients, leading to prompt signoff and close rates. Users can now also automatically include optional items in proposals, incorporate interactive hotspots in images, add WYSIWYG snippets to documents, and employ a new elastic search function to simplify the procurement process. Collectively, these updates, alongside UX improvements for tasks and scheduling, offer a more intuitive and effective management experience.
