Web Based Software
Overview
Web based programs have been coming on strong
in recent years as the best choice for large corporate systems. The software
normally exists only one one server that is used by an entire company.
Each of the users accesses the software from the web browser on their
PC.
Many people have used or may still be using a server with a terminal
client on their PC. The terminal is usually the black and green screen
that most have come to hate. The biggest problem with a terminal is that
it doesn't work or act like the Windows programs that were all used to.
Point an click is almost unheard of. Operators waste lots of time typing
the same things over and over.
Many companies converted from their old server/terminal software to Windows
based software over the years. Now the trend is shifting towards web based
applications because they are the best that a terminal client and a Windows
based application have to offer.
