Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is one of the fastest growing areas in business as more and more
companies realise the benefits of accessing data on-line without the expense and
hassle of installing and maintaining a server and local PCs. Application updates
are easy as there is only 1 "cloud" server application to consider. Costs are on
a monthly basis so planning is easier. You can feel confident with the cloud as you
have:
Full support 24/7
Total back-up and recovery
24/7 access from anywhere in the world
Secure password protection for your "desktop
Application Generators
Active Studio
Mobile Development Suite
Active Studio is designed for programmers and non-programmers alike.
With an easy to use development environment that gives the designer a fully functional
simulator that looks and acts like the actual device.
BluePrint
The concept behind Blueprint is the creation of application workflows using flowcharting,
these workflows are then used by either Blueprint Mobile or Desktop, where they generate
and control the user interface. The use of workflows reduces development and testing
time. This use of workflow documents allows for the migration to other devices and
operating systems.
The data collected is stored in a results table, using a predefined set of fields.
The data collected can be reported on directly with Blueprint or extracted for other
systems to use.
The built-in report designer can be used to generate complete reports straight into
PDF.
