Summary
Customer satisfaction is top priority for Stibo Systems. When customers make software enhancement requests, Stibo Systems works diligently to meet their business needs. Many of the changes available in 10.0 are implemented as solutions to these requests.
The list below highlights many of the enhancement requests that were completed in 10.0, but this is not a comprehensive list. Additional customer-requested enhancements not listed below were completed as part of previously planned roadmap-driven projects, as well as for specific product lines and/or customers, and are therefore not globally applicable.
