CENSOF Holdings Bhd through its wholly owned subsidiary Century Software (M) Sdn Bhd has been providing financial management and business solutions to over 80 government agencies and businesses by leveraging Jitterbit’s application programming interface (API) technology for integration or middleware.
Both Century Software and Jitterbit have recently reaffirmed their partnership by continuing to advance their joint technology to enable Malaysian Government agencies and businesses to accelerate their digital transformation journey.
On its own, Century Software has successfully placed itself as one of the leading players in Malaysia’s digital/information technology industry specialising in government resource planning solutions.
An API enables interaction between data, applications and devices. It delivers data and facilitates connectivity between devices and programmes. API also allows applications to communicate with back-end systems.
“Our technologies continue to advance, and so do our integrated solutions. These integrated solutions have greatly benefitted our clients as many of our clients have systems they would like to integrate,” commented Century Software’s CEO Dr Zainul Ariffin Harun.
“With Jitterbit, we are able to integrate our clients’ systems in a faster and more effective manner. We are now offering these integrated solutions to our clients as a package in which API will be in real time. Most of our clients, namely the government agencies are committed to use it.”
Jitterbit’s director (channel and alliances for Asia Pacific) Marco Meisert noted that many Malaysian government agencies have a strong requirement for Century Software’s solutions which need to be tightly integrated with other core applications.
“Jitterbit’s easy-to-use integration platform allows these agencies to gain real time access to data and make informed decisions,” he pointed out. “Typically, government agencies are smaller in size and have a significant number of applications and back-end systems that need to be integrated with.
Moreover, government agencies are also very particular about pricing as they have limited budgets which thus posing as a potential challenge to Century Software.
This is where Jitterbit’s flexible pricing model comes in handy to address the pricing challenges, added Meisert.
At 3.21pm, Censof was up 0.5 sen or 1.28% to 39.5 sen with 8.44 million shares traded, thus valuing the company at RM218 mil. – Aug 17, 2021
