    A new app has been developed which enables users to slice real-time data from their current info systems, securing them access to critical data using a smartphone.

    Co Down based company, Kipling Data Ltd has created the cross-platform app, which is named Kipling⑤ , and the firm said the idea came as “the need to harness business intelligence, whether in office or remotely, has never been more relevant than in these current pandemic times.”

    An early adopter of Kipling⑤ is Star Instruments Ltd, headed by CEO Stephen Donnelly.
