ENTERSYS SRL

Enterprise Systems

Our company, history and projects on Innovation and Sustainability

Start-Up

Our company was born out of the desire to promote the concept of Sustainable Innovation for Small and Medium Enterprises: we wish to bring to the world of SMEs all those tools that have made and continue to make exclusively Large Enterprises competitive in the global market.

Research and Development

Entersys’ vocation is strongly oriented towards research and development of solutions dedicated to enterprises, with particular attention to the use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in the context of decision-making and management activities in the enterprise.

Continuity

The use of free software and open source applications guarantees the continuity of the solutions we propose, regardless of the chosen service provider and the business needs that will gradually change as a result of the integration of the implemented systems.

Why Start-Up

Entersys (Enterprise Systems), alread before being a company, was alive in the will of the partners to promote their idea of Sustainable Innovation in the world of Small and Medium Enterprises. Starting with an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System and through the Open Source Software model, our company intends to provide an ecosystem of Solutions for Work Planning, Communication, Data Sharing and Management Control.
Zelo (italian for Zeal), which has long since embarked on a stringent development roadmap (implementing numerous tools, workflows and applications) constitutes the first step in a much larger project dedicated to the integration of technological solutions at the service of businesses.
The Start Up formula, strongly oriented toward Research, Development and Innovation (whether technological or simply methodological) lends itself well to the Project Team’s goals: unlike any other product existing on the market, Zelo has the ambition of becoming a management system capable of autonomously learning (through the analysis of business activities, their consequences, the results obtained and market indicators) how the company is managed and proposing scenarios or corrective actions to the decisions and operations carried out by the staff. From this point of view, integration with the numerous tools dedicated to companies on the market becomes even more relevant for the coming years.

Innovation and Sustainability

Innovation

From a global perspective, one of our company’s goals is to bring to micro and small companies important tools which are usually exclusively to much more structured entities (big data analytics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, etc…). The growing gap between large companies and SMEs is thus bridged, fostering their dialogue and breaking down boundaries that limit their competitiveness in the global market.

Technology

The technological content of our solutions lies mainly in the advantages of adopting a model such as that of Free Software: this allows for the free use and integration of a multitude of tools that, when taken individually, offer excellent functionality, but are exponentially more effective and important when integrated with each other (real-time collaboration, videoconferencing and more generally anything that breaks down geographic or language barriers, in line with the needs of an increasingly globalized market).

Sustainability

For a long time, Microenterprises and SMEs have been made to believe that the process of Innovation necessarily passed through the purchase of new technologies, effectively turning the “Innovation Process” into the “Technological Innovation Market.” This has led to neglect of all other aspects of Innovation, such as decision-making processes, workflows or planning. In other words: the sustainability of Innovation. At Entersys we think that innovation in the company must necessarily pass through a structured, sustainable and therefore personalized project, within which “technologies” represent exclusively an aspect (more or less relevant, but certainly not the only one) of the “Innovation” problem.

How to support innovation in your company

Free Software

Why use and develop Free Software?

We do not want to reinvent the wheel: using of free software allows us to lean on a plethora of excellent software that already exists, which can be adapted to our needs (and thus to those of our clients) with competitive performance and lower final costs compared to proprietary solutions. We agree with philosophers and mathematicians about “being nothing but dwarfs on the shoulders of giants”: the result of our efforts will take us farther when resting on the mountain of existing knowledge rather than stubbornly starting from scratch.

Research and development: the open environment allows us to experiment with innovative solutions, such as applying Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to business processes, in collaboration with universities and research centers around the world that support this philosophy. We believe this is the best way to quickly bring the benefits of innovations to our clients’ processes, while at the same time giving back our small contribution to the mountain of human knowledge.

Continuity of solutions and intellectual honesty: Free software allows anyone with the right skills to access and modify the code in order to meet the needs that are constantly and frantically changing in the modern world. In contrast to proprietary software, our open solutions can always be adapted to your business, both in the short and long term, without the risk of finding yourself in the dead end of an unsupported product.

No licensing costs: valuable resources that are normally eroded by proprietary software licensing costs can instead be saved, or more intelligently invested in customizations and training that enable your business to grow and keep up with the times.

Customizability: Experience shows that two companies, both engaged in the production of the same product (even with the same features and functionality), in most cases use significantly different production methods and techniques that change over time. Free software is the only solution that can guarantee the necessary adaptability.

Interoperability: The electronic exchange of data, whether between machines, between systems in the same company, between customers and suppliers, between systems in different companies, or between companies and the public administration is a critically important process at the heart of any company’s life. Free software makes it possible to develop the connectors necessary to break down communication barriers between different systems, and thus ultimately to create integrated, innovative and evolved tools that can operate on a large scale and with automatic processes of data interchange, recording and analysis.

Criticality Responses: The major critical issues found for SMEs in innovation processes are the absence of in-house technical expertise, difficulty in investing in management systems, and technological barriers. So what should any “Ideal Business System” look like? It should be accessible and simple, so that users can use it intuitively and be guided in acquiring the necessary technical skills for their personal benefit and therefore for the company they work for, but not so simplified as to limit its usefulness; it should be economically viable in the short and long term, with implementation, customization and maintenance costs accessible and predictable; and it should be open and modern, so that it can be modified and adapted to the needs of the company for the removal of technological barriers and the implementation of the latest technologies.
