Clover This cloud-based software platform from Razorleaf provides out-of-the-box plugins that allow users to build capabilities without writing code, which can help manufacturers integrate data across their various software systems, including Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Manufacturing Execution System (MES), Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software systems. While many manufacturers consider digital thread integration a major priority, only a small number of manufacturers have reported progress toward that goal, according to a report cited by Razorleaf. To make the task easier, the company's platform comes equipped with self-service capabilities and pre-configured workflows. It features a low-code/no-code toolset that allows users to easily create plugins to connect to other data sources or in-house systems, which minimizes initial implementation effort. It automates tasks involving communicating and exchanging product and engineering data.
What’s new? Upgrades. The latest generation of the digital thread integration platform Clover now operates seamlessly in the cloud with the flexibility to run on-premise, air-gapped, in the cloud or as a hybrid model. Its newest features include the ability to rapidly validate, transform and process files and data; and perform complex jobs and large operations during off hours to avoid hurting productivity.
Benefits Fast, cost-effective, accurate and easier data integrations. Integration allows manufacturers to access key data and share it with the people who need it to do their job. Clover reduces the risks and costs of pursuing a strategic integration strategy, and it improves the accuracy and time to complete business workflows across companies. This leads to greater efficiency, improved data accuracy and decision-making, streamlined operations, and the elimination of redundant processes and systems.
