IT Involvement |
|

to maintain the database. IT may need to set up and maintain network connections
and settings. IT oversees and trouble shoots software, networking issues and compatibility
problems. IT time and cost issues.

Network Issues |
|
Network issues are non-existent. Nothing is installed on the network. Database resides
on our server. |
Potential network compatibility issues. Space on the network may be a concern to
IT. Database is installed on individual client computers (who has the current database)
or on client’s network.

Software Issues |
|
Software updates are automatic & seamless. SE & Associates handles this off site
so there is no client or IT involvement. |
If a software problem arises, a fix or patch must be sent to the user. The patch
must then be installed on each licensed machine and test software. Any previously
customized report may need to be reinstalled. |
