Multi-browser compatibility – where are we now?

Multi-browser compatibility – where are we now?

Posted on 07. Mar, 2011 by in Exact Synergy

We are moving forward with the multi-browser compatibilty and it’s time for an update. As you know our goal is to support the following browsers:

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer
  • Google Chrome
  • Apple’s Safari
  • Mozilla Firefox

In my previous blog I shared with you some important improvements in the multi-browser compatibility. Among others we have added a new document editor that enables you to create and edit documents, you could as well create and edit workflow or view Microsoft SQL Server Reports.

In the product update 245 we added new functionalities that are multi-browser compatible. You can now view and edit your homepage and customize menus in your preferences. Moreover, the personnel cards and search functionality, when searching for people, accounts and documents, are now compatible with multiple browsers.

If you would like to know more about the changes regarding multi-browser compatibility in the product update 245, watch this video.

 

 

The only fully supported browser is Internet Explorer. While some functionality may be available in other browsers, they are not officially supported.

    Early on in this project you had included Opera but have now eliminated it. While Opera has a small percentage of the desktop market, it is one of the most popular mobile web browsers and is growing rapidly.

    Opera for Windows is gaining market share and is easily the most powerful web browser available (with features like Opera Unite, Widgets, etc.).

    I understand that Opera has a small market share, but once people are introduced to it, they fall in love with it and it would be the perfect platform for Synergy Enterprise to operate in.

    Thanks for your consideration.

    Hi JDM,
    I have good hope that when we support the four major browsers (in terms of marketshare) Opera will surely also function better together with Synergy Enterprise however we need to draw the line somewhere. In case the marketshare of Opera significantly grows either on the desktop or in the mobile world we will rethink our strategy.

    Thanks for your feedback!

    I agree, specifically with Opera for the desktop. I should point out however, that the mobile versions of Opera are the #1 most popular mobile browsers, commanding over 21% of the mobile market.

    Thanks for your consideration!

    Hi Robin,
    Any news on support on PSA functionality (can imagine that the new functionality and screens, eg hour entry, are compatible)?
    Am I right in the PSA field?

    What are the main functions that do NOT work?
    I have a prospect with 60 consultants working with Mac’s. Would like to tell them the hour entry screen is accesible with safari…

    Let me know.
    Rob

    Rob,

    new screens that were built from scratch (like hour/expense entry, hour approval, etc) will work in all modern browsers.

    Is there any progress in the multi browser support since this blog?

    As a Synergy Enterprise user, I am looking forward to use all monitos sections on the account card for instance. This is up to now not supported.

    Thanks for your answer!

    @Stephan, in the roadmap for 2012 we have planned to support 85% of all the pages (ordered by most used) for the web browsers Chrome, Safari for Mac and Firefox.
