The next generation of IRis, 4.0 is now shipping!

IRis is a database-driven software system specifically designed to help organizations manage their Information & Referral/Assistance activities. The system is installed to a local file server or stand-alone computer, and is used to:

  • organize service provider information
  • collect information about people served
  • refer people to service providers according to services needed
  • track needs/unmet needs
  • match volunteers to organizations with volunteer opportunities
  • create standard and custom reports

IRis 4.0 offers an out-of-the-box application which meets all AIRS standards for I&R software systems. It also meets 211Taxonomy standards, 211 Accreditation requirements, AIRS XML standards for data-migration, and is anticipated to work well with third-party screen reader programs, such as JAWS.

In addition, IRis 4.0 offers a slew of user-defined fields which can be activated, named, and placed wherever you want on the screen. In fact, almost every screen offers a unique easy-to-use drag-and-drop screen designer feature which allows you to lay out the fields and screens to fit the needs of your organization, without compromising data-sharing capabilities. The entire application is designed with customization in mind, so you can make it your own, without the expense and headache of hiring programmers to create a custom-built system.

The first IRis application was released over 10 years ago. Over the years, more than 1300 organizations have purchased IRis, making it the most popular I&R/A system in the industry. What accounts for this success? SunCoast believes improvements and additions to IRis should come from professionals – that’s why all IRis development is customer-driven. We value your opinion. As the professionals in your business, you know what you need – and we try our best to give it to you.

North Carolina:
We love working with IRis and the folks at SunCoast. Not only is the program easy for us to customize and use, SunCoast's customer service is top notch. Plus, you can always get help online with the IRis Users Group. How many other software companies offer free advice online?
South Carolina:
As the IRis Administrator for three sites sharing data, I like the built-in reporting features and find that they meet our needs. Our president has been very impressed with the reports that have been generated. Also, specific reports that are not built into the system can be designed to suit your agency's needs. The SunCoast staff have been very helpful in helping me design extra reports.
Pennsylvania:
Just today, I ran my first IRis Query using your "Tech Tip of the Week" (dated 6/10/2002). I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart! Though we have been using IRis for years, and I am responsible for reports, this task has always been painful... until today. And it is because of your clear, concise, wonderful instructions. THANK YOU! Our MIS manager will be so happy, too... she is the one I'm always bugging! Thanks again!
