00:35 Fix Siebel UX, and you get a powerful CRM platform

In its latest CRM study, Nucleus Research praises Siebel CRM for its breadth of capabilities, yet points out that it lags in usability. 

 

01:50 Our 2019 innovation - Nexus Bridge - made it easy to use modern web frameworks and component libraries within Siebel UI.

Nexus Bridge is freely accessible on Github:https://github.com/ideaportriga/nexus-bridge

Yet, similarly to jQuery-based custom Open UI, building UI with modern frameworks requires significant effort. 

 

03:26 The latest innovation - Nexus Face - makes it possible to build modern Siebel UI in a drag-and-drop manner.

 

03:42 Nexus Face solves the Siebel Open UI dilemma.

  • Standard UI: easy to build and maintain, yet poor usability
  • Custom UI: great UX; however, expensive to develop and maintain

We offer 3rd alternative - Nexus Face generated UI: modern UI design in record time.

 

05:22 Compared to custom code UI, with Nexus Face

  • it takes less time investment to build the UI;
  • the current Siebel team can use the tool: advanced web skills are NOT required;
  • it is simpler to maintain improved UI.

10:49 Nexus Face demo: Building blocks

  • UI application consists of pages and page fragments, where we add components. Then we style these components and map them to Siebel fields. 
  • local design system (extendable component library + styling according to customers' brand book)
  • API - connection to Siebel is made via Nexus Bridge and leverages Open UI's Presentation Models content

 

13:28 Nexus Face demo: adding a Kanban board to existing Midnight UI to display sales opportunities

 

18:18 Nexus Face demo: adding a Knob component with opportunity win probability field

 

20:10 Nexus Face demo: making a cleaner UI with dynamic page fragments and dynamic actions

 

26:20 Nexus Face functional overview

  • Local Design System: Component library + Design tokens
  • Data sources
  • UI composition principles
  • Output: Vue.js components, which in the higher environment are managed by Nexus Face Runtime module

 

29:58 Become Early Adopter of Nexus Face this summer

Nexus Face entered the public preview phase, and we are searching for three more Early Adopter customers. 

  • Phase one: free pilot for 2-3 weeks
  • Phase two: initial implementation by Idea Port Riga, using Nexus Sprints methodology (2-4 months)
  • Phase three: the customer's existing team continues Siebel UX improvement on their own with some Idea Port Riga support

 

33:43 Benefits for Nexus Face's early adopters:

  • a free pilot project;
  • significant discounts on the product's subscription fee;
  • free training.

 

34:57 Nexus Face subscription fee for 2020

18 EUR per Siebel end-user per year, which is 

1% of Salesforce Sales or Service Enterprise Edition publicly quoted subscription fee.

With a small fraction of Salesforce subscription costs, Nexus Face can help you to modernize your Siebel UI. Once you fix Siebel UI, you will have a powerful CRM tool while retaining all your prior investments in integration and customization within the platform.

 

36:41 Q&A on Nexus Face:

  • performance impact;
  • should Siebel applets be developed or not (yes, they should)
