Innovative Australian Cloud Platform Powers 100 million Business to Business Transactions
MELBOURNE – 5th November, 2015 – MessageXchange (www.messagexchange.com) is a cloud based platform for businesses that need to automatically exchange business transaction information with their partners, suppliers, and customers. The innovative Australian service has today announced that it has hit a new milestone in growth, passing 100 million transactions per annum.
The MessageXchange cloud based service powers several of Australia’s largest supply chains, encompassing transactions from business that include Target, Harvey Norman, Computershare, Australia Post, The Good Guys, Reece, Telstra, and Costco.
MessageXchange is the product of over 10 years of sustained Australian research and development. The innovative cloud platform has been developed and is operated by eVision, an Australian software developer that has pioneered cloud based B2B technologies since 1996.
John Delaney, one of the founders and Managing Director of eVision commented, “Businesses of all sizes rely on invoices, purchase orders, and other formal documents to work with their suppliers and business customers. While most businesses already use electronic PDF documents, emailing and tracking these documents can still be labour intensive and prone to error, slowing down business transactions and payments.”
As businesses grow, the volume of transactions between suppliers that need to be tracked can create a mountain of electronic and traditional paperwork. MessageXchange is designed to fully automate the exchange of critical business information directly between businesses. This cloud based technology allows rapid, low cost, application level integration between businesses of any size. The result is a reduction in the need for human intervention and manual handling of invoices, purchase order, and other supply chain paperwork.
Mr Delaney continued, “Our research and development team based in Melbourne are focused on developing technologies to help businesses streamline and better manage their external business partners and customers. We have expanded our R&D team, and invested more than $5m dollars in our cloud platform technologies. Many of Australia’s most successful businesses are already reaping the productivity benefits of MessageXchange.”
Delivered via a cloud model, the MessageXchange platform makes it possible for businesses of any size to exchange information seamlessly. This makes it affordable for small businesses to interact in a highly efficient way with their suppliers and clients, as well as allowing large businesses with sophisticated business applications to automatically integrate information from their supply chain.
Mr Delaney concluded, “MessageXchange is a proven platform, delivering significant, measurable cost reductions and productivity improvements for our clients. Based on the success of our innovative technologies, we have established a presence in Hong Kong and Shanghai, and are planning further expansion.”
MessageXchange has an Australian team of 27 people. To help service growth amongst financial services industry clients, Stephen Martin was recently appointed Account Manager for Financial Services. Mr Martin has previously worked on technology projects for the Department of Defence, ASIC, National Australia Bank, and ANZ Bank.
