WEBcnx

. . . bridging the gap between design and sales

It is widely acknowledged that intelligent and creative structural design lies at the heart of every successful packaging company.  Of equal importance is the ability to share those designs and any design related information with your colleagues, suppliers, and customers as well as with your business management systems.

WEBcnx is a software that allows you to do all of this from anywhere in the world, simultaneously increasing efficiency, reducing development times and creating time for your designers to work on innovative, business winning, tasks.  WEBcnx kicks in from the first point of customer contact and continues to monitor the progress of each project from initial enquiry through virtual 3D proofing, design approval, graphic design, and tooling manufacture.

WEBcnx records every amendment and request, keeps track of all associated documents – from customer specifications to CAD files to graphics files – throughout the process, and provides you with a full audit trail on demand, using real time data.  WEBcnx will ensure that that your design resources are used to their optimum capacity, allowing you to achieve more with the same number of people.

WEBcnx maintains complete control over the security of the most valuable assets of any packaging company – its designs – as well as any associated information.  Fully configurable user privileges ensure complete security and allow administrators to dictate exactly what each individual can see and do, thus guaranteeing total confidentiality at all times.

Of course, software is only part of the solution.  A well defined implementation process is the other key ingredient to a successful installation.  Therefore, Arden Software focuses on integrating WEBcnx into your existing workflow and business processes, whilst leveraging our experience in the print and packaging industry to help you streamline your workflow to maximum effect.

Design workflow management is the final hurdle in total business efficiency.  WEBcnx is the best and only solution available to packaging manfacturers.
