Welcome to the online home of Touch Points Plus, formerly eTopia Technologies, a software development and technology consulting firm with a clear vision of its mission and a unique approach to implementing technical solutions. Technology companies have a well-deserved reputation for spewing forth an ever-changing litany of buzzwords designed to impress existing and potential clients with the company's technical expertise in the latest and greatest technologies. This buzzword razzle-dazzle ignores the reality that newer is not always better and that most businesses don't need the latest and greatest technology. At Touch Points Plus…
- We firmly believe the least amount of technology necessary is most desirable.
Technology is inherently complicated and complexity represents cost. Most businesses can achieve the highest return on investments in technology by implementing only the technology necessary to satisfy known requirements. The best solutions are ones that get today's job done today with the least investment of a company's time and money.
- We firmly believe completion speed is a business imperative.
Companies often get bogged down in the impossible task of predicting the future in order to choose technology that will provide for future flexibility. While admirable, such effort ignores the reality that the future is unpredictable, technology is evolving at an accelerating pace, and competitive business environments are changing more rapidly than ever before. The best solutions are ones that can be implemented quickly to satisfy a company's immediate and near-term requirements.
- We firmly believe genius is measured by simplicity.
The combination of a little manual labor and a little technology can solve many business problems. Automation for the sake of automation is rarely a good investment. The most ingenious solutions are ones that simply build on what already works or that easily work with what already exists. The best solutions are ones that are simple to implement because they are easier to enhance, modify, or discard as a company's requirements change in the future.
