IDrive ASP Web Enables QuickBooks, Access, Act! and Other Multi-user Applications
(PRWEB) May 18, 2005 -- "Standard Microsoft Office applications such as
Microsoft Access, Excel (with Microsoft Access backend), Act! From Best
Software, QuickBooks from Intuit and many other office applications provide
multi-user access to the source data on a LAN. We simply web-enable these
applications using IDrive ASP technology. So instead of being available on your
Local Area Network, you can access the source data from anywhere, as long as you
have the necessary Application available on your machine, and have a good
Internet Connectivity, preferably, a DSL or Cable connection." says Shyam
Appali, COO of Pro Softnet Corp.
"IDrive ASP is the latest offering in
the Online Storage field by IBackup. Extending IDrive to support office
applications as an ASP was a major challenge. These applications require locking
mechanisms to work properly, and we were able to achieve that by extending the
LAN functionalities to the web. We once again showed that we have the cutting
edge technology in Network Drive field." said Raghu Kulkarni, President and CEO
of Pro Softnet.
ASP solutions for office applications have a subscription
price point that are much higher than IBackup subscriptions. Also, ASP solutions
are still evolving, but LAN based office applications are mature,
market-hardened products that are ready to use, have been around for years.
IBackup does not make or offer Office Applications, IDrive ASP simply web
enables users existing office applications.
Data access using IDrive ASP
is encrypted during transit with 128-bit SSL encryption, so users need not worry
about security of data while it is being transmitted over Internet.
Once
users install and run the IDrive ASP application that creates a mapped network
drive, they will just need to move their application data to the drive, and
point their application to use this data.
