FUNCTIONAL DEPTH.
Lobster_data middleware allows users to communicate seamlessly with everyone. With any format, channel and system. To ensure that the interchange is successful, the template library in Lobster_data already contains all common industry standards such as EDIFACT, VDA, ANSI X12, IDoc, XML or JSON by default. In addition, the system offers numerous communication channels for sending or receiving data, from MongoDB via AS2, AS4, FTP, HTTP or Kafka to MQTT.
The middleware brings further advantages in API management. User-friendly creation, documentation and publishing of APIs. The fast and scalable connection of internal and external systems such as e-commerce platforms (Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce etc.) or enterprise service buses (Amazon SQS, Azure SB, Oracle EBS etc.) due to REST API capability. The availability of more than 14 different partner channels and optional connections to any relational, NoSQL, or JDBC managed database.
CUSTOMERS WHO RELY ON LOBSTER.
COMPETITIVE, TRANSPARENT PRICES.
Selecting the right software takes time. Lobster offers easy-to-understand licensing models so that users can get started quickly once the decision has been made.
With Lobster, you do not pay any varying amounts, but a fixed monthly fee. The scope of your subscription is always scalable. In addition, the software contains many important functions right from the beginning and enables a modular start without high investment.
Depending on your needs, the middleware is available as a Starter, Business or Enterprise Edition. Upgrading to the next Edition results in more profiles, more concurrent users, more freely selectable modules, increased high availability and performance, more protocols or additional profile packages.
Our prices are also independent of whether you host Lobster_data on-premise, in your private cloud or the Lobster Cloud. And Lobster can help companies with the migration if requirements change. Another financial benefit: The rapid implementation of the middleware shortens the time-to-market for customers by 50% and therefore cuts overall project costs. Prices are also communicated transparently and without hidden costs for our flexible delivery and service models in the form of self-service, temporary support or fully comprehensive care.
Another benefit is provided by the Control Centre in Lobster_data and the real-time monitoring of all processes. Automatic alerts and rapid problem solving help to keep the total cost of ownership (TCO) very low, right from the start.
HIGH USABILITY THANKS TO NO-CODE.
For over 20 years, Lobster has been developing and distributing software that puts the user first. Because no-code technology gives employees without programming skills access to a powerful, uncomplicated software toolbox and opens up IT far beyond a group of professional developers. This is not a small advantage in view of the shortage of IT experts, especially since Lobster_data can be mastered in only three training days due to ready-made building blocks, graphical support and drag & drop.
DATA & PROCESSES.
As a high-performance middleware, Lobster_data is a completely new type of platform on which data and processes are treated as one. Whether companies see their needs from the data or process perspective – one is inseparably linked to the other. Because processes generate data and data optimise processes.
ENGLISH SPEAKING SUPPORT.
The stated goal of the Lobster Support team is to help users as efficiently as possible. The best way for to reach our specialists is by e-mail or, in urgent cases, by telephone. Instead of receiving standard answers from a chat bot, from the very beginning Lobster customers get help directly from our support staff. In English or German. And as our statistics show: 90% of all tickets are answered within just 3 hours, more than a quarter within a day and almost 70% within three days.
This high success rate is possible because Lobster Support works as swarm intelligence. Each ticket is only assigned to one ticket owner who handles the request from start to finish. This approach ensures that customers only have to explain their issue once and their contact person is familiar with the support process.
HIGH SECURITY standards.
To provide customers with the highest possible security, Lobster continuously performs intrusion detection tests and audits in Lobster_data and the software is always kept up to date. This means it can be used reliably on all browsers like an application – regardless of whether the hosting is on-premise or in a cloud.
Furthermore, Lobster_data offers modern authentication options (2FA and MFA) and prevents unauthorised system logins. The inclusion of specific security levels is also possible and independent of where the middleware is hosted.
Additionally, the Control Centre integrated into Lobster_data allows all data integration processes to be monitored at any time. In the event of any deviations from the target, the software sends automated alerts and enables those responsible to intervene in a quick and focused manner. The structure with several working nodes leads to a highly redundant system and therefore offers both high availability and more operational reliability.
Finally, Lobster is in touch with all professional organisations and keeps up with the latest developments. Lobster software is currently certified according to ISO 27001 Information Security and ISO 27018 Data Protection Cloud Solutions. Security will continue to be a priority in our software development in the future.
