iB2BGateway




You would have to be hiding pretty far under a rock not to have heard about Apple’s newest gadget, the iPhone 4. Apple has become incredibly adept at creating an event around the launch of their products. People lined up overnight just for the chance to spend a whole mess of money on a fancy phone. Apple did their job and got people amped up. What they apparently forgot to do was test the actual phone part of their smart phone.

Almost immediately after the launch, people started complaining about dropped calls and terrible reception. Even worse was when the internet discovered that the reception actually dropped whenever the phone was actually in someone’s hand. That’s kind of a big miss in their QA department. Apple has since tried to make good by giving out free bumpers with the phones to try and mitigate the problems.

That’s an incredibly high profile example of what we try to avoid at B2BGateway.Net www.b2bgateway.net. Without proper testing, I’m not sure a single piece of our software would run properly. So we make sure to take that extra time to test properly and eliminate as many future problems as possible. Of course, there’s not enough time in the world to test every possibility, but we take care of the most common problems.

Don’t worry though, unlike Apple with their phone function, we fully test our EDI functions before they’re rolled out to the clients.
