SalesPulse Update

We have been developing systems for educational bodies for the past ten years. These systems store information on students and courses. We understand how sensitive some information can be, that is why we develop secure and reliable systems that keep your information safe and gives you piece of mind.

Our new online primary school system has been launched since September 2012 and we have had a great response from schools who have adopted it.

The NEWB and department return feature is a great time saver for principals. The new texting facility allows you to keep all of your contacts in one place; you can send group text messages or send a text to one individual.

Some schools have hundreds of pupils. We have put in a feature that takes the hassle out of school tours; there is a pupil payment feature on our online primary school systems that allows you to track the payments of each individual pupil.

Due to the fact that our new system is an online system you can access it from anywhere, you can even access it on a smart phone, so if you have an emergency you can contact teachers/parents or the board of management in a few seconds.

Over the past eight years we have built up a great working relationship with a lot of VEC’s, providing them with software that allows them to run their organisation more effectively.

 Here at SalesPulse we don’t just produce software to sell to organisations, we develop software that caters to the real needs of the organisation. If an organisation such as a VEC or school has a special requirement that may be unique to them we can tweak our software to create a new function that deals with the issue. That is just one of the benefits of being a dynamic and flexible software development company.

While this year is coming to an end, we are looking forward to the beginning of a new year and a continued healthy relationship with all our customers.

From all of the staff here at SalesPulse, to all of our customers, clients and business partners, we hope that you have a Happy Christmas and enjoy the holidays.

New system launched for Adult Refugee Programme

In mid January we launched a system to manage the National Adult Refugee Programme.  Eleven different VECs will be using the system to manage the programme in their own counties. The software is made available to all users securely over the internet.

 Instead of each office preparing returns at the end of each quarter or the end of the year, Salespulse have designed the system in a way that the National Co-ordinator and the Department can extract the information they need automatically.

 Initial training for the first 50 users took place in Dublin and Brian Kelly of Salespulse says that the user feedback was   very good.

Salespulse website updated

A long overdue update has been carried out to our site. We have divided the site into 3 main areas tied in with our company. They are the Business Sector, the Education sector and the Public Service Performance area.

Each of these pages have their own home page and users have the option of going directly to one of these.  Our products are listed with an explanation and a factsheet.  You can click for a callback about any product.

We are developing a support section for our existing customers. Currently you can download product manuals and there are Support FAQs.

Sales Ordering added to our CRM system

In response to a number of our customers we have now developed a sales ordering system that can be offered as part of our Customer Relationsip Module (CRM) system.

You can add in your products and then you, or your sales staff in any location can generate orders with multiple lines on each order.  An invoice can be generated with the information from the order .

As soon as the order is placed your head office or dispatch centre can be notified, ensuring that orders are dispatched in a more timely manner.

Adult Education product updates

We were made aware in January of a number of changes to the Department of Education & Science return requirements and we have been updating our system. We have now completed these changes and they are being uploaded to our live systems today and tomorrow. 

We have built in some additional checks to help users identify what information may not have been filled in that the Department require. We have also developed a reminder system to flag that all the information required has not been entered when a learner is being added to the system.

Full details of the changes are displayed on the homepage that users will see when they log in.
