QED Releases Improved Portfolio Management System

QED Information Systems has released Q2 Release 2, Version 8.32, an upgraded version of its portfolio management, investment accounting and securities operations software package.

The improved Q2 contains over twenty new features. Customization is key with new settings that enable users to personalize their desktop and information displays and create reports that incorporate Q2 data with content located anywhere on their network or on the Web.

Bob Campanella, QED's manager of software engineering and implementation , ensures users that the core functionality of the enhanced software works as smoothly and reliably as previous Q2s. "From importing and exporting data to reconciliation processing to reporting using Visual QED and HIGHGRaDE, we've tested and retested all of our subsystems to ensure the dependability that our clients deserve," he said in a company release.
