VCG Previews Pointwing Recruiting and Staffing Software at SI Executive Forum

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) March 12, 2007

VCG, Inc., the developer of software solutions and services that power successful recruiting and staffing companies, today announced it is previewing Pointwing™, its revolutionary next generation staffing software platform, at the Staffing Industry Executive Forum in Miami, Florida.

Pointwing provides staffing organizations with a flexible, extensible and highly scalable technology platform that is designed to support staffing and recruiting firms of all sizes. As a result, these firms gain unprecedented control to customize their business processes and support diverse organizational needs.

VCG has developed Pointwing in close consultation and partnership with industry leading firms that helped articulate the requirements for this next generation staffing and recruiting platform.

"Many companies use the terms 'partnership' and 'solutions' when they are trying to secure your business. However, not all of them live up to the commitments needed to have such a partnership," said John P. Unroe, CEO of Accountants Inc. and Acsys, Inc. (divisions of Vedior NV). "We chose VCG's Pointwing for two reasons - first, because we believe they have developed a state-of-the-art, user-friendly solution for the staffing industry. Second, VCG keeps their word and listens to their clients as they develop solutions for staffing professionals."

The first modules to be released from the Pointwing product suite are:

• Pointwing Front Office - the core recruiting and CRM module features extensive user interface personalization, powerful global account management as well as state-of-the-art resume parsing, searching and comprehensive Microsoft Outlook integration
• Pointwing Self Service - a Web portal that integrates with a company's existing Web site enabling online job posting and candidate applications as well as giving customers the ability to submit and check orders
• Pointwing Gateway - a Web-based business intelligence dashboard module that monitors key performance indicators (KPIs) to enable confident, proactive business decisions

Pointwing is developed with Microsoft's® .NET technology and deploys an easily extensible service oriented architecture (SOA) for flexible, scalable support of unique business processes. The Pointwing architecture also includes a documented, open HR/XML (SIDES) compliant application programming interface (API). The API enables seamless integration to other business applications and services such as skills testing and background checking to help speed and improve business operations.

"Products that fully deliver on their promise when launched are rare in the software business - Pointwing does. Co-designed by staffing companies, Pointwing transforms the way that staffing firms manage and grow their business. We are proud to continue the VCG tradition of setting the standard that drives the continuing success of staffing companies worldwide with the introduction of Pointwing," said Steve Taylor, President and CEO of VCG, Inc.
