Quick deployment - Nothing to install. Just sign up and ...go! |
COMMbits provides groupware applications as a website "hosted solution". There is no software to install on your PCs, no server hardware required at your end either, and no expensive system administration and maintenance is required. All you need to run the applications is a web browser. You have the advantage of the COMMbits premium hosting infrastructure.
The COMMbits ASP model
Conventionally, you would purchase all necessary software, hardware and bandwidth for an in-house installation. However, you would then have to worry about web and database server installation & configuration, future hardware upgrades and maintenance, systems and applications software installation, configuration, maintenance & upgrades, backups, up-time, need for increased bandwidth & solid Internet visibility. None of these comes cheap!
|
System upgrades are automatic and headache-free! |
COMMbits, as an Applications Service Provider (ASP), takes care of all this for you for a cost much lower than the cost of your in-house hardware maintenance alone! Our deployment and accessibility model allows your group's private or public members to securely access their data from anywhere in the world using a simple Internet connection and a standard web browser. NO plug-ins are necessary, and NO software needs to be installed in any of your computers.
|
High-speed Internet servers. Access from the office, home or anywhere else! |
This approach dramatically reduces deployment time. Your systems can go live in a very short time compared to long deployment periods required by conventional in-house setups, which could take months.
