What does AFL's .Net Application development provide:
One touch deployment: the application does not need to be installed
on every user's workstation, the PC can simply point to a URL (or internal
server network address) and the application is downloaded as required.
Benefit: This technical capability reduces the cost of maintaining
the software.
Optimised for remote working: .Net allows for the easy deployment
of the applications for remote users, either via the internet on laptop
PC's or for subsections of the functionality working on PDA's.
Benefit: This allows for the more flexible working patterns that are
increasingly adopted.
State-of-the-art User Interface design: .Net allows for a far greater
degree of functionality in the user interface.
Benefit: This allows the applications to be designed to be easier and
more intuitive to use. All of the screens can be laid out to meet the
customers exact business process requirements.
Object orientated design: This design methodology allows systems to be efficiently modelled to the follow the complex nature of private equity, it allows AFL to provide solutions that match efficient best practice business processes. The system can be quickly and cost effectively modified so that AFL can respond efficiently to both individual customer requirements and statutory/regulatory changes.
Future proofing: .Net applications can be used on any technology platform (they are cross platform independent). AFL's customers can be sure that the technology has an indefinite life, even if Microsoft looses its dominance within the marketplace; .net applications can be run on most of the common operating system platforms available.
