ZedX Apps brings project delivery, Agile working, risk, audit, governance, controls and operational workflows together within a single integrated platform.
Organisations often manage projects, risks, audit actions, governance, controls and operational workflows through separate applications, spreadsheets and locally developed processes.
ZedX Apps provides a common environment for managing these activities, with shared identity, organisational structures, permissions and platform services.
Applications can be used individually or together, allowing organisations to start with an immediate requirement and progressively build a more connected operational environment.
Start with one application. Expand to a platform.
Every ZedX application is built on the same underlying platform rather than developed as a separate product and connected afterwards.
Project delivery, Agile work, risks, audit actions, governance and controls can therefore share common organisational structures and work together across applications.
Use a single application for a specific requirement or combine applications to provide a wider view of activity across your organisation.
ZedX provides applications covering Project Portfolio Management, Agile delivery, operational work, risk, audit, governance, management controls and business workflows.
Organisations do not need to deploy the complete platform from day one. Applications can be introduced around specific teams or business requirements and additional capabilities added over time.
This provides a practical route from solving an immediate problem to creating a wider integrated platform.
ZedX supports hierarchical organisational structures, allowing applications, information and permissions to reflect how your organisation actually operates.
Teams can work within their own areas while authorised users retain visibility across departments, business units or the wider organisation.
Microsoft Entra ID provides Single Sign-On, while granular permissions help ensure users see and manage the information appropriate to their role.
Adopting ZedX does not mean replacing every system your organisation already uses.
Enterprise deployments can integrate ZedX with existing applications and data sources, allowing information to move between established systems and ZedX workflows.
This enables organisations to improve fragmented operational processes while retaining the specialist systems they already depend upon.
ZedX is designed for organisations of different sizes and with different deployment requirements.
SaaS editions provide straightforward per-user access, while Enterprise is designed for government, education and larger organisations requiring wider deployment and unlimited users.
Enterprise can be hosted within the customer's own Microsoft Azure environment, giving organisations greater control over infrastructure, integration and data.
Different organisations may share similar operational challenges, but their structures, terminology, governance and reporting requirements can be very different.
ZedX provides sector-focused configurations for government, education, business and other organisations while retaining the benefits of a common underlying platform.
This allows organisations to adopt proven applications without forcing their operations into a generic one-size-fits-all model.
ZedX has been developed using a growing library of reusable components covering workflow, approvals, forms, permissions, organisational structures, reporting and other common business requirements.
Through Apps on Demand, Swiftpro can use these capabilities to develop additional workflow applications around specific customer requirements at a fraction of the effort required to develop a new enterprise application from scratch.
Following delivery, applications can become part of the supported ZedX portfolio and continue to benefit from the wider platform.
ZedX uses a modern web architecture based on React, APIs, Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Azure technologies.
The architecture supports integration with external systems while providing the security, identity, permissions and organisational controls required for enterprise deployment.
For Enterprise customers, the platform can operate within the customer's own Azure environment rather than requiring critical operational data to be hosted within a separate ZedX infrastructure.
What is the ZedX Apps platform, and how is it different from individual business applications?
ZedX Apps is an integrated platform supporting a growing portfolio of applications for project delivery, operational workflows, risk, audit, governance and management controls. Unlike separate software products connected afterwards, ZedX applications share common technology, organisational structures, user management and platform services. This allows organisations to introduce individual applications while benefiting from a consistent and connected environment.
Do we need to purchase the entire ZedX Apps platform to use one application?
No. Organisations can select the applications they need without subscribing to the entire portfolio. Applications operate on the common ZedX platform, allowing customers to start with a specific business requirement and introduce additional applications as their needs develop. Available applications and licensing arrangements depend on the selected edition.
Can different departments and business units operate independently within ZedX Apps?
Yes. ZedX Apps supports hierarchical organisational structures that can reflect departments, business units, teams and other organisational arrangements. Users can work within their assigned areas while authorised managers retain appropriate visibility across the wider organisation. This supports both departmental independence and central management oversight.
How does ZedX Apps manage user access and permissions?
ZedX Apps provides role-based access controls and granular permissions to help organisations manage who can access applications, information and functionality. Microsoft Entra ID integration supports Single Sign-On, allowing organisations to align user authentication with their existing identity arrangements. Access can be configured to reflect organisational responsibilities and security requirements.
Can ZedX Apps be deployed within our own Microsoft Azure environment?
Yes. Enterprise editions support deployment within the customer's own Microsoft Azure environment, providing greater control over infrastructure, hosting arrangements and integration with corporate systems. Other editions are hosted by ZedX Apps, allowing smaller organisations to benefit from the platform without managing their own cloud infrastructure.
Can ZedX Apps integrate with our existing business systems?
Yes. The platform uses an API-based architecture designed to support integration with external applications and data sources. Enterprise customers can work with Swiftpro to identify relevant integration requirements, including exchanging information with existing corporate systems. Specific integrations are assessed and agreed according to the systems involved, technical requirements and security considerations.
How do ZedX applications share information and work together?
ZedX applications operate on a common platform with shared organisational structures, identity management and supporting services. Where relevant, activities in one application can be linked to information or workflows in another. For example, Project Portfolios can provide management oversight while Agile Sprints manages Scrum delivery and Risk Registers manages related risks. This helps reduce duplication while allowing each application to retain its specialist functionality.
What technologies are used to develop the ZedX Apps platform?
ZedX Apps uses React for its web-based user interfaces, C# and .NET for backend processing, and Microsoft SQL Server for structured business data. The platform operates on Microsoft Azure and uses APIs to connect application functionality and support integrations. These established technologies provide a foundation for developing, maintaining and extending business applications.
How is artificial intelligence integrated into ZedX Apps?
ZedX Apps includes Cloe AI, an assistant integrated into the platform using OpenAI technology. Users can ask questions, obtain guidance, prepare summaries and receive assistance with relevant business activities. Available AI capabilities depend on the application and the information accessible to the user. AI is intended to support productivity and professional judgement rather than replace human responsibility for important decisions.
Can ZedX Apps support organisations as they grow?
Yes. ZedX Apps offers editions designed for individuals, teams, medium-sized businesses and large enterprises. Organisations can introduce additional applications, expand usage and adopt different deployment arrangements as requirements change. The Microsoft Azure architecture also allows infrastructure capacity to be adjusted according to the needs of individual deployments.
Can Swiftpro develop additional applications for our specific business requirements?
Yes. Through Apps on Demand, Swiftpro can work with organisations to analyse their operational requirements and develop tailored applications using the existing ZedX platform and its library of reusable components. Suitable projects may be offered without separate software development charges, with customers paying for professional delivery consultancy and an agreed ongoing subscription. Applications can subsequently become configurable additions to the wider ZedX portfolio, subject to commercial and technical feasibility.
How can we evaluate ZedX Apps before making a purchasing decision?
You can explore ZedX Apps through the self-guided online demo without registering or providing personal details. Alternatively, you can create a free trial account without supplying credit card information. Organisations considering Corporate or Enterprise deployment can also contact Swiftpro to arrange a demonstration and discuss their technical, operational and commercial requirements.
