TigerLogic Product: D3 Database, mvDesigner and TigerLogic Dashboard
Financial Services Company Achieves Back-Office Goals with Suite of TigerLogic Products
LEA Trade Finance, a subsidiary of the LEA Groupe, is a European financial specialist that allows SMBs/SMEs to manage their supply chain by securing export sales and supplies to respond quickly to customer demands. LEA Trade Finance covers the entire financing process - from asset financing (renting and leasing) and trade financing (consumer and durable goods), to guaranty, debt collection, and credit score recovery services.
LEA Trade Finance requires data management and application development tools that are flexible, open, and capable of meeting their software development and reporting needs. Their existing back-office application provides total management of all activities of the financing processes, including leasing and trade finance throughout all of their subsidiaries in France, Italy, Luxemburg, and Romania.
Historically, LEA Trade Finance has been running the D3 database for its data management system. Over time, TigerLogic's mvDesigner tool was added to develop and deploy a web-based application for credit scoring and debt collection services. Recently, the TigerLogic Dashboard was implemented to provide LEA Finance with real-time graphical business intelligence reports on each subsidiary's activities.
"Flexibility, robustness and a high level of availability of data were key points," said Stephane Lahaye (CEO, LEA Groupe). "We chose TigerLogic's products for the robustness, flexibility, and connectivity of their D3 database, and the fast and easy development and deployment of web applications using the mvDesigner and TigerLogic Dashboard products."
"TigerLogic's products offer us a real capacity to evolve and empower our solutions to scale with a growing environment of information," said François Rossignol (General Manager, LEA Trade Finance).
TigerLogic's suite of products and components provided a total benefit to LEA Trade Finance. With the complete and native integration of the D3 database, mvDesigner (a rapid application development tool), and the TigerLogic Dashboard, LEA Trade Finance achieved their goals for application development at a high level of competency, efficiency, and flexibility.
