Advantages of a Hosted Solution
vs. Customer-installed Application |
| Advantage |
Comments |
| Architectural independence |
You don't need to sacrifice functionality
to find an application that meets your corporate IT standards. Because
BillPort® is hosted remotely, it runs independently of your
environment and should not be affected by changes in your corporate
environment or technical standards. |
| Very low customer
maintenance |
We administer the hardware, the operating
system, the database, and the application software. We continuously
monitor and upgrade the platform. We can do this most efficiently
because we know the application and can take advantage of economies
of scale. Your software will always be current. You will never have
to test and deploy new releases. |
| Rapid, low-risk deployment |
The software can be made operational
quickly. All you need to access the system is Microsoft Internet
Explorer, which is already a part of your corporate IT architecture.
There is virtually no risk of the software not functioning in your
technical environment, nor is there significant risk of it interfering
with the function of any other systems. |
| Reduced capital expenditures |
With Invoice Insight, you benefit from
a smaller up-front investment. The software is provided as a monthly
subscription. You do not have to purchase servers or expensive software
licenses. |
| Accessibility from any location |
BillPort® can be accessed from any Internet-wired location, anywhere. |
