"Customers are the cornerstone of our business. Every customer is treated with utmost importance. Our success can only be measured through your success." -- Gene Bonett, President, Xperia
Xperia provides an implementation guide to help customers integrate the Comprehensiv™ ERP solution into their business. Software Analysts assist with the implementation and use of the software by evaluating business operations and matching the software's capabilities to the company's business practices.
Our implementation team provides project management assistance to help realize the return on your software investment. Techniques we employ include implementation planning, execution, employee training, management training and process re-engineering. Implementation services include the installation of hardware, software, establishing network connectivity and data conversion. Given that Xperia takes a long-term view of its customer relationships, we work hard to fulfill the needs of your company today as well as to help your vision of the future become a reality.
This phase consists of gathering business processes and data requirements, interface definitions, and functional specifications that accurately reflect your business needs. We work closely with your team to identify business processes, which are matched to system functionality and used to conduct milestone reviews. The results are finalized into a requirements document and presented for approval.
Phase 2 - Solution Analysis and DesignDuring this phase, we identify those requirements that must be addressed. This phase consists of analyzing and designing the specific technical components to satisfy your requirements. Plans are outlined for data conversion, testing and acceptance criteria, training, system capacity, and backup and recovery. Upon your review and acceptance of the design, Xperia will proceed with the Development and Testing Phase.
Phase 3 - Development, Testing and TrainingIf necessary, as components are designed and approved, program modifications begin. Milestones are defined and measured for progress throughout the development phase. The training coordinators, to ensure minimal errors and maximum reliability, perform quality assurance and testing. User training occurs during this phase.
Phase 4 - Operational Assurance ReviewThis includes performing any required data conversion, conducting a "live" test to demonstrate the completed functional application. Upon acceptance a "go live" production date will be established.
Phase 5 - Go LiveAn on-site programming and training support group are available to ensure that any unforeseen issues are addressed immediately.

EducationXperia offers several training programs to get your employees up and running on the system as quickly as possible.
Training experiences can occur either on-site, at our facility, or on-line or any combination of training methods can be utilized to most effectively use your time.
Recognizing that training and learning are, in fact, ongoing processes, Xperia training programs are continually supported by our call center. Continuing enhancements to the software are automatically accompanied by extra training support.
The hallmark of all business relationships is the quality of attention after the sale. Xperia's customers enjoy the best support in the business on top of the most robust, comprehensive, and integrated software.
Xperia provides customer support from 8:00 a.m. EST to 5:00 p.m. EST Monday through Friday to its customers. Xperia also offers an emergency hotline list, where Xperia staff is on call to support those customers who are in need of after-hours support. The support personnel answering the phones are system specialists who are experienced in Xperia software. They will be able to answer all operational questions and provide Level 1 support. If necessary, these technicians can refer a particular problem to our Level 2 support personnel. The technical personnel who develop and modify the Xperia software are key contributors to providing Level 2 support.
Xperia offers upgrades to their Solutions annually. Clients can choose to upgrade whenever they want, but we encourage them to not be more than three releases behind the current base.
To help retain enhancement investments, the customer is charged a nominal fee to re-introduce enhancements back into the base.
A thorough review of modifications and analysis of the system is done with both the customer team and our team prior to upgrade.
