New efficient and user-friendly platform for Validoo’s services

To meet customers’ needs for time-efficient and user-friendly services, GS1 Sweden is launching a new future-proof IT platform for Validoo Item and MediaStore. High performance, better customer experience and stable operation are the objectives for the rollout on 3 June 2019.

Industries that manage digital product information will soon be able to log on to tomorrow’s Validoo, focusing on time-saving and automated solutions that simplify customers’ business and information flows.

Our customers demand speed, stability and simplicity when managing article information and images. That’s why we’ve developed a platform with high performance, modern architecture, better functionality and a focus on user experience.

First launch already in port

The first part of the Validoo IT platform was rolled out in January 2019, when users of the Validoo DataEntry system received a new and more powerful version. The new user interface allows the supplier to manage and view item information for all levels of the supply chain in a completely new way. The service has received positive feedback from users, who can now create article information much faster than in the previous version.

A modern interface – hundreds of new possibilities

The launch includes an upgraded version of the Validoo Item and MediaStore services, which help users to quality assure, manage and share product information and images. The new interface creates a central product database that makes it easier for business partners to share information about products according to the GS1 standard, which is the common business language.

We are proud and excited to offer our customers a modern service with smart, time-saving features that make information management easier than ever. The launch is also just the beginning of our new venture. The plan is to continuously add more value-adding features for our users.
