Standardisation and
self-customisation,
without compromise,
only the advantages.
Are you attracted by the price and availability of a packaged business software but insecure with its use-as-is concept?
Do you believe your only option is made-to-measure software - despite its chances of misfit, its cost overruns and the risks posed by its uniqueness?
Will these dangers be less with an off-the-shelf software that uses proprietary languages and tools for customisation by consultants or to-be-trained staff?
CMStrade - the easy transparent choice:
Standard, specialised, complete,
with their advantages:
■ low and fixed price
■ ready to use
■ powerful
■ reliable,
and customise-able,
without its disadvantages,
with CMS's special advantages:
■ you can do it yourself;
■ you will employ only non-proprietary well-known tools and languages;
■ you do not risk disrupting the software nor voiding updates.
The customisations here are the professional type, usually done by authorised staff. Some require basic programming.
For user customisations, see Friendliness.
Input
Internet: the all-round win.
CMSiServer’s Internet interface means you can use the incomparable versatility and simplicity of Internet languages (DHTML, Javascript, CSS, etc.) to create very attractive and functional input forms just as you want, in any number of (spoken) languages.
Note: Internet languages are non-proprietary, freely available, need only a browser facility, are easily learned, and you can call on a vast pool of trained programmers.
Output
Internet + MS Office™ too.
Use the Internet languages for your own reports. Its real-time positioning allows very dynamic outputs, while its wealth of features superbly enhances attractiveness and readability. Use MS Word™ also, if you wish.
Transaction templates
A new look at an overlooked issue.
The transaction concept we have developed optimally accommodates the various ways the same business operations are done in different companies. You can now build your own transaction templates from the standard CMS ones, then safely and easily model your formulae, rules, composition, … needs.
Data and programs
Combinations - so many possible.
CMSiServer’s object-oriented design allows making a variety of programs, and combinations, to operate/display data. For each data item, you may setup which, and in what combination, programs are available, and to which users - fine-tuning usefulness.
Organisation parameters
Your company's view of the business.
Organisation parameters adapt our standard software to use in your company's environment. Without our intervention, you specify and maintain these parameters per your business today and tomorrow.
Security
Drag-n-drop management of security.
CMSiServer's security system is extensive, from setting each user’s access to each program in each company used, to grouping users and programs for efficient management, all implemented using the same concepts and easy methods of the software.
External software
Putting your data to use elsewhere.
CMSiServer generates XML data from outputs to use - eventually adjusted with XSL - on other software. In a simpler format, data can be directly used by MS Excel™.
Note: XML & XSL are non-proprietary universal standards. Generated XML data can be tailored via the selection, calculation and arrangement options of the output itself.
