webapps

Software in your browser. Cool.

A web application or webapp is is software you use over the internet with a web browser from any machine that has access to the web. You don’t have to install any CDs, download any software, or worry about upgrades. If you use internet banking, web-based email programs like Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo Mail, if you post to Facebook or Twitter, or if you’ve booked or bought something online then you’ve already used web-based software.
Web applications are sometimes referred to by the term "cloud computing" because there is nothing to download and nothing to install, the software is always up-to-date and apps can be accessed anywhere around the world 24/7
When you use web-based software you don't have to worry about anything technical — you can just do your work. We handle all the data security, uptime, backups, upgrades and “IT guy” stuff. You stay focused on what you're good at and we handle the geeky stuff.

The power of your existing systems.

A web application solves problems in new ways that have never been possible before, by harnessing the power of your intranet or website, eliminating the shackles of software licensing and outdated hardware requirements.
A well-designed webapp will
  • Run anywhere from common browsers, such as Internet Explorer or Firefox. This means at the office, in a different office, at home, on-site, in a hotel, or wherever you have an internet connection.
  • Be available 24/7, around the clock, around the globe.
  • Allow compartmentalisation of users and their privileges. Modular, object-orientated systems allow customers, admin staff and producers simultaneously use of the same system.
  • Protect data in a single location, allowing easy backups and robust security.
  • Almost always be cheaper to develop and maintain compared to "traditional" distributed applications.

Small details are always important

Embrace the webapp.

Users will relate to working in a familiar and fun way. It's smarter and more effective too. Web applications are even more efficient when the small details are considered:
  • No PC upgrade is required.
  • Installation is minimal and occurs in a single location - the server.
  • Training is vastly reduced as most users are able to navigate and surf the internet.
  • Fewer mistakes are made as applications are more intuitive.
  • Customers can be allowed to make their own bookings and complete their own orders.
  • Expensive multi-site licences are eliminated.

Imagine your own browser-based system where users need little or no training. It's fun, exciting and deadly efficient.
