„Wir wollen Bücher machen und darin investieren, nicht in Hardware“: Case Study Eichborn
 2008 entschied sich Eichborn dazu, die internen Prozesse und die eingesetzte Software auf den Prüfstand zu stellen. Das Ergebnis: In einem 5-monatigen Projekt wurde die bisherige Honorarabrechnung durch die Klopotek CR&R-Lösung (Contracts, Rights & Royalties) ersetzt. Nach dem Erfolg beim Umstieg auf CR&R begann im April 2009 die zweite Projektphase: Die Bereiche Lektorat, Herstellung, Vertrieb, Marketing und Presse gingen im November 2009 komplett auf die Klopotek Lösung. Eichborn ist der Pilotkunde, der die Dienstleistung Klopotek SaaS, Software as a Service, nutzt. Stephan Gallenkamp, Vorstand Eichborn AG, erklärt im Interview, warum die Ablösung der Altsysteme notwendig war, worin die wichtigsten Anforderungen an eine neue Software-Lösung bestanden und warum Eichborn sich für das Klopotek SaaS-Modell entschieden hat.

"The updated interface makes it easy for users to access the powerful functionality contained within the Klopotek solution" 
 We quote from the ' Book Publishing Software News' newsletter, September 2009 issue: " New Klopotek User Interface
In August Gregor Wolf, Chief Technology Officer, provided us with an advance screening of Klopotek's new user interface. The new user interface is designed to reduce training time and improve user productivity. Each screen is better organized and less crowded. The menu system is similar to that found in found in Outlook and MS Dynamics. Adjustable panels allow the user to customize the look of their workspace and to view multiple screens at the same time. Administrators can hide tabs and menus based on the user's role. Users can set up their own menus for frequently accessed screens. More importantly, we found that the updated interface makes it easy for users to access the powerful functionality contained within the Klopotek solution."
