About us

For more than 30 years, we’ve been developing and designing innovative software solutions for the publishing and events industries. That doesn’t just mean we do our very best to keep on refining and improving our products. It also means we’re dedicated to supporting users with the highest level of service. Right from the advice we give clients at the start.

Products

Our Myriad software solution releases the full potential of your business. It brings together all the information in your organisation. So it’s more efficient, achieves higher levels of performance and gets a better bottom line.

Support

Have peace of mind with our software support. We’ll keep you up to date with any legislation changes, security improvements, plus enhancements in routines, modules or performance.

Services

We’re not just experts in what makes Myriad tick. We’re in the best place to help you with data, third party interactions and industry specifications and practices.

Myriad

How Myriad can benefit your company

Myriad is remarkably flexible. It’s also designed to expand as a business grows. That means it can help every part of the publishing and events community get the very best out of their businesses. Here are just a few ways in which it can help transform your workflow.

You serve customers more efficiently

Keep the whole team in the picture about customer interactions. The result – better service and happier people.

Your marketing’s smarter and more cost-effective

Give your marketing department access to the data that matters so they can target the right customers and prospects.

Your sales figures improve

Now you know more about your customers, it’s easier for you to uplift or cross-sell.

Your revenue and profits increase

Give people the power to increase productivity and cut sales cycles. Plus, monitor and optimise business workflows.

Every client’s different

You deserve the very best from your Myriad project. We recognise that. And we also recognise that no two clients are the same. That’s why, from the moment you get in touch with us, we work with you to make sure you have exactly the modules you want, configured to suit your company.

And, because we put our clients at the centre of our business, you’ll shape Myriad’s future path as much as our development team does. So, look at us as a lifetime strategic partner, not just another supplier.

Ongoing peace of mind

With our comprehensive software support contract, you never have to worry about falling behind. It keeps your software up-to-date and also covers all of our application enhancements.

You’ll benefit from new features and new integrations as soon as they’re available. You’ll be on-board with the latest security protocols, any required legislative changes and industry requirements. And of course, you can rely on our releases to improve performance and fix any bugs.

You can also use our online ticketing system to record, track progress and update your issues or new requirements as they arise. And if you’re concerned about GDPR and PCI DSS, relax. Our guidance is there to help you stay compliant.

You’re never alone

We work in partnership with our clients from day one. It’s the most effective way to steer the project to eventual success. It also provides a solid platform for any future projects.

Training, data transfers and bespoke programming are standard services, but we don’t stop there. We can work with you on third party software integrations and liaise with external suppliers. We also offer consultancy and project management. You can be fully confident that your project will be within scope, in time and in budget.

Integration

Myriad includes many existing third party interfaces. But if you’d rather carry on with your existing approach for solutions such as accounting software, payment gateways or other external business processes, no problem. Our skilled development team can work with you and your suppliers to make sure that happens.

You’ll also find that our built-in spreadsheet and word-processing functions open up office tools to all your users – and they’ll help you cut costs.

Payments

However your customers like to pay – prepayments, payment after billing or through a payment plan – Myriad can cope. It already works with several popular payment gateways. You can add others when you need to.

Myriad User Group

The Myriad User Group is an independent collective of bureaux and publishers, all of whom use Myriad. It meets regularly to exchange the information and ideas that can help Myriad users optimise the return on their investment.

As part of the group, you can have your say, hear what other clients have done, and listen to external industry speakers on a wide range of relevant topics.

We work closely with the group so that feedback can directly influence what we’re doing with product innovation and development. Workshops attended by interested clients, for example, help design and test new development before they’re rolled out to all users.

Meet the team

We’ve been developing and designing innovative software solutions for the publishing and events industries for many years. Having a long-serving management and development team makes sure our design road-map is stable and consistent.
