Ten Years Since the iPhone Launch

Garry Lowther • 30 June 2017
Steve Jobs personally announced and demonstrated the Apple iPhone on 29 June 2007 in California.

It was indeed a game changer, and completely changed the direction of the global mobile technology market, making the iPhone one of the most successful products in the electronics industry. 

Apple disrupted the then market leaders, such as Blackberry and Microsoft, and redefined the future direction of not only mobile phones, but also the apps, music, entertainment and ultimately tablet market (iPad in 2010).

The iPhone was truly a revolutionary product, and Apple deserves credit where it's due.

Sadly, Steve Jobs died in 2011, aged 56, and it remains to be seen whether Apple can come up with another revolutionary product. Given the multiple versions of iMac, iPad and iPhone, plus the failure of iWatch, it indicates that they will not any time soon.

Since the launch of iPhone ten years ago, TriSys has achieved the following milestones:
  • Designed and built an entirely new .Net version of TriSys Recruitment CRM Software
  • Migrated its cloud infrastructure away from physical hardware to remote virtual machines using the worlds largest scalable network
  • Devised a software development kit (SDK) to allow partner and customer developers to build and customise their own recruiting software
  • Released five new desktop CRM versions, the latest being TriSys 2017 which can support 100,000 simultaneous end users
  • Designed and built an industrial scale microservices cloud architecture with the deployment of the TriSys Web API
  • Augmented the SQL Server database schema and migrated to all subsequent versions
  • Designed and built a cross platform generic software toolkit for constructing line of business web browser and mobile applications
  • Built the Apex Recruitment CRM app using this toolkit and the Web API
  • Deployed the Recruiting CRM Mobile app into the Apple and Google Play stores
  • Designed and built a modern Web Jobs portal for recruitment agencies to display vacancies and capture applicants
  • Launched the worlds first recruiter technology television channel
  • Increased the number of software developers working for TriSys ten-fold 
  • Fully integrated with the most popular cloud services
  • Maintained compatibility with all versions of operating systems, browsers, hardware and third party services
  • Tightly integrated with major recruiting technology suppliers
  • Devised and launched an industry agnostic cloud virtual desktop: WebPC
  • Built Chrome specific recruiting apps and extension for LinkedIn
  • Ported the original COM-Add-In to work as an Office Add-In for Outlook, Word and Excel
  • Grown our consultancy business to include sophisticated front to back business processes to support complex workflows
  • Trained thousands of recruiters worldwide
  • Wrote, produced and recorded an on-line video training series for Apex
  • Adopted and integrated advanced remote desktop technology to greatly enhance our support capabilities
  • Built and launched a new support portal with centralised administration for customers including financials, invoicing and orders
  • Grown its customer base five-fold
We are very proud of the achievements of both ourselves and our loyal customers over these last ten years, and we thank you for your commitment to TriSys and our products and services.

TriSys Cloud Remote desktop for recruitment professionals. Cloud hosted recruitment software.
by Garry Lowther 5 February 2024
We are planning some very exciting innovations and enhancements to the products and services of TriSys Business Software in 2024: TriSys Apex 2024 Our cross-platform web browser recruitment CRM was released in 2014 and uses the TriSys cloud platform to process all its data and functionality. Customers with any type of computer, tablet or phone can access their recruitment data and conduct sophisticated workflows to drive their business forward, wherever they are and at any time. We plan a number of innovations this year, including the port of the temps booking sheet, and integration of AI. TriSys 2024 The latest version of our premiere windows desktop recruitment CRM is now available to all existing customers. This application was first released in 1992 and is a rock-solid enterprise grade recruitment business app. For customers on the 2023 version, the application will automatically upgrade. All new features will be documented in the coming months. Our SDK is still the only recruiting software toolkit for Microsoft .Net. TriSys for the Microsoft Store was delivered using Visual Studio 2022. Flexiva We have devised a concept we are calling Flexiva, hosted at flexiva.co.uk , which is a flexible visual app builder for enterprise cloud business software, utilising the new breed of no-code or low-code tools. Flexiva will be be a sophisticated app builder, initially housed within TriSys Apex , which will evolve to replace the existing Developer Studio , by providing higher level tools to allow business people, rather than programmers, to construct powerful line-of-business applications which connect to any ReST API. TriSys Cloud Platform Our cloud infrastructure platform was conceived and built in 2002. It has grown and matured to comprise literally hundreds of cloud servers distributed across the planet. Customers use our platform to store and process their large corporate data assets, via our software products and services. Expect more integration with world class web services, including artificial intelligence, through our Web API . Third Party Integrations The TriSys Recruitment Software Platform enables unlimited integration flexibility including standard and complex integrations across multiple popular third party industry suppliers enabling you to use TriSys as a process hub offering a single source of truth. We have recently built a sophisticated integration with Zapier , and this year we will fully integrate with additional best-of-breed third party business platforms including artificial intelligence (AI). TriSys Mobile Suite Recruiters can access their recruitment database from their tablet and phone by installing our app , however the mobile landscape is changing with a new class of 'app-builders' utilising low-code or no-code technologies. Due to the power and flexibility of the TriSys Web API, Recruitment agencies can cost-effectively commission their own dedicated and branded mobile app to engage with their clients and candidates. A new truly-native version of TriSys mobile will be released to the stores in Q1 2024. TriSys Web API Almost all our recent innovations centre around our web application programming interface which provides a fully secure set of programmable end-points not just into the TriSys Cloud Platform, but also to a host of third party global ecosystems, to provide customers with unlimited flexibility to deploy a range of sophisticated recruiting business benefits. Web API plans for 2024 are to add mobile app-specific functionality allowing the TriSys platform to reach a wider range of customers by utilising AI. TriSys Platformix Five years ago, we introduced a website builde r technology utilising a mix of cloud platforms, which we called Platformix . This is the successor to Web Jobs in that it is a full recruitment website content management system (CMS) with very tight integration with the TriSys recruiting database, plus state of the art blogging, SEO compliancy, and analytics. We will continue to invest in building TriSys Widgets to allow our customers to build high engagement web portals. We will also continue integration with Stripe to allow Gig-Economy services to be built for our customers. TriSys Open Source We now have full GitHub source code integration with all our software build tools, meaning that TriSys is now the only commercial recruitment software vendor to offer an open-source model. From 1st January 2024, existing customers are able to license TriSys' source code to build their own highly-specific recruitment CRM app for desktop, mobile and web. We are also planning to partner with other organisations to build complex line of business applications for all industries, based upon the thousands of man-years development and testing which has been invested in the TriSys Platform code base. TriSys Remote Desktop The original TriSys ASP was launched 22 years ago , and comprises a windows hosted desktop running on our cloud. Last year we launched a Windows 11 version with full compatibility with Microsoft Office 365 allowing customers to have full control over the apps they can install. This year we will continue to support all Microsoft supported versions of Windows.
