Nobel SaaS Apps on Mendix

CAMBRIDGE: Nobel and Mendix have reached a partnership agreement, providing Nobel the opportunity to build new SaaS- (Software-as-a-service) applications on the Mendix platform. The company will use the Mendix Business Agility Suite because of its flexibility and broad functionality.

Nobel Director, Piet van Vugt says: “We see that our clients need the ability to quickly modify their strategy and business models in order to adapt to the rapidly changing market conditions. This means that businesses must continually adapt and optimize their processes in line with ever changing business strategies. The traditional ERP software provides insufficient flexibility to quickly and easily implement these changes."

With Mendix’s development technology and methodology, it is possible to build business applications in a fraction of the time and cost. Nobel sees an opportunity in helping companies get more value from their ERP investments by extending their systems with flexible web solutions. “Model driven development and SaaS is in our opinion the future of application development and together with Mendix we can make great strides," said Piet van Vugt.

Mendix CEO Derek Roos adds: "We see more and more customers opt for a hybrid solution of out-of-box systems extended with more flexible, differentiating web applications. As long as one uses the right tools, applications can be adapted quickly and cost effectively as new needs for the business are anticipated. I am looking forward to this collaboration.”
