Welcome to the second installment of the Fishbowl Think Tank. We’re going to keep talking about Fishbowl 2011 because it was just released a few days ago. Be sure to get your copy of our newest inventory software today!
In addition to Fishbowl 2011’s many new features, it runs much faster than any previous software version. Forty percent faster than Fishbowl 2010, on average, according to an internal test we ran a few weeks ago. Fishbowl is committed to constant improvement.
A crafty Fishbowl automated tester named Greg Doermann took the time to measure exactly how long it takes to create, load, update and delete specific modules in Fishbowl Inventory. In almost every category, the newer version is significantly faster. Many of the time differences seem small, but they’re actually relatively big because the previous version was already quite fast.
Here are some of the more spectacular examples:
- Transfer orders can be created 11.1 seconds faster
- Transfer orders can be loaded 7.6 seconds faster
- Sales orders can be created 8.1 seconds faster
- Sales orders can be loaded 7.0 seconds faster
- Sales orders can be deleted 6.3 seconds faster
- Sales orders can be updated 5.0 seconds faster
- Manufacture orders can be created 5.9 seconds faster
- The receiving and shipping modules can both be updated 3.6 seconds faster
