LACEY, Washington-July 27,
2010-PUMP-FLO™ Solutions (An Engineered Software
Business), announces the release of PUMP-FLO Premium a major
update to their web-based pump selection software. The new program
is a subscription-based web-version of its popular PUMP-FLO
software. The new PUMP-FLO Premium features a secure
cloud computing technology, a refined user interface and coincides
with a completely redesigned website. New collaborative sharing
tools, the saving of pump search lists and the ability of searching
through multiple manufacturer's catalogs at one time, top the list
of new highlights.
PUMP-FLO Premium is a subscription-based service meeting the needs
of pump users, specifying engineers, pump resellers, and
manufacturers for sizing and selection, showing dynamic pump curves
and aiding purchasers and suppliers in the quotation process. Over
80 pump manufacturers support the PUMP-FLO Premium program by
making their pump performance catalogs available in electronic
format. The program searches from over 
135,000 digitized pump curves,
making PUMP-FLO the largest pump performance database in the
world.
"One new feature that I am sure will please many current users is
the ability to search from more than one manufacturer's catalog at
a time. This has been a request for some time now, and we wanted to
provide a tool that isn't available in any single program right now
in the market," said Carolyn Popp, President and Chief Technical
Officer for Engineered Software, Inc. "Listening to customer
feedback is what has made PUMP-FLO the industry standard, and this
is another example of where we are listening to our customers to
provide the best tools available. With over 200,000 registered
users of the PUMP-FLO software, we are fortunate to have a vast
database of customer ideas to draw from."
One goal of PUMP-FLO Premium is to create a community of pump
users where collaboration is simple and easy. Utilizing the latest
in cloud computing technology, PUMP-FLO Premium stores pump
projects on secured Web servers, and enables sharing of the pump
selection between users. The new "List Manager" feature makes this
possible, allowing users to save their "Selection Lists," add
project notes, customize the view and rename columns. The List
Manager also lets users share saved search results with anyone
having an e-mail address and internet access including
non-subscribers. The user has the ability to allow full access or a
view only status to with whomever they are sharing. Non-subscribers
can view the Selection List for free on the PUMP-FLO Premium
collaboration website as "View Only."
PUMP-FLO Premium New Features:
- Search across multiple manufacturers' product lines
simultaneously.
- New search format shows estimate of the number of results for
each searched design point.
- Real-time interactive controls for adjusting pump speed and
impeller diameter, displaying results on the pump curve.
- Save custom searches in the all-new List Manager.
- Share saved searches with anyone via email and allow them to
view, modify, or share ownership.
