An amendable system will allow you to get nearer and nearer to 100% satisfaction and business fit for any specific requirements you may have. This makes you more and more productive. The system is also economically amendable which means your developer can charge a realistic cost for amendments.
Interprise has a Plug-in Architecture which means amendments can be made to the system and reapplied when upgrades or updates take place easily. This means you do not get stuck on the version you have which is a common problem with other systems.
Customisable
The ability to be able to amend a product is the real difference between a happy user longer term and not. It allows the user as they change their requirements to keep on using the system and get nearer and nearer to 100% satisfaction with the product. A little change here and there makes each company that uses it more productive and happy about using it.
It also has to be economically amendable so a dealer or developer can make money from any amendments but also the end user gets value for money. The development framework in Interprise allows a developer to create small amendments or large vertical market applications easily and quickly. We share the objects which really speeds up the development process. Its industry standard and best practises so no having to get multiple skill sets which makes developers less productive.
One of the biggest problems that a developer has when customizing the source code of an existing application is how to incorporate the updates and upgrades of the original application into the customized application. Developers have had to either completely “break” from the original application leaving them responsible for bug fixes, new features and technology changes or to spend hundreds of hours “reprogramming” their customizations into the latest versions of the original application “again and again”.
To overcome the problems associated with customizing the source code, Interprise Suite was designed with an extendable architecture that allows you to easily separate custom code from the main application code via .NET user controls that have been designed to “plug-in” to the Interprise Suite forms. In Interprise Suite every form is comprised of a base form that contains multiple .NET user controls (plug-ins) for the presentation of the user interface. By replacing one or more of the existing “plug-ins” with your own custom “plug-in(s)” you can change the functionality associated with that part of the form. As new updates and upgrades are available, you simply re-apply your custom plug-ins and your customizations are back in place.
This approach greatly simplifies a developer’s ability to keep their customized application up to date while providing the customizations that their company / clients need. In addition to the extendable architecture, Interprise Suite also contains a number of pre-written code objects that greatly simplify common tasks such as searching for data, reading data, saving data etc. By using these prewritten objects as much as possible you are able to take advantage to the enhancements of these objects as the .NET platform evolves allowing your customized application to move to 64-bit windows and Microsoft Longhorn much easier.
