Technologies
Not for the faint hearted......
Languages
The choice of platform to use for our developed solutions always depends on the business needs, requirements,
and technical factors. Our products are designed and developed for the Microsoft .NET 3.5, 2.0 and even the 1.1
Framework. However, this does not deter us from developing solutions on any other platforms, as frequently we
have done. We have developed solutions that work on the Linux/PHP open source platform and also solutions
that work on the Macromedia ColdFusion Application Server.
Database
We have a vast experience in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and 2000 and we have also developed smaller
solutions using open source software such as MYSQL. By using these proven technologies we will optimize
your business processes to streamline your business needs.
