Technology

Under the bonnet

We have developed our software using Microsoft .NET technologies. Express v3.5 has been written using predominantly VB .NET upon a SQL Server database.

Understanding that the majority of businesses use Microsoft operating systems & applications, using the latest .NET technologies will ensure true compatibility and therefore product stability within your business environment.

For report integration, Blue Frontier use the award-winning Crystal Reports from Business Objects to produce powerful management information requirements.

There are two prerequisite components to the application installation;

1. Microsoft .NET Framework and although this is now installed as part of current Microsoft Windows Updates we strive to be at the forefront of available technologies, so we currently use and require Microsoft .NET Framework v3.5 SP1. 
2. Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime, which we install as part of our implementation.

Before we implement any business solution, our consultants will ensure that your technical environment will effectively support the implementation; this will be documented within the project scope with sound recommendation based upon the chosen solution.

If you would like to know more about the technologies we use, the limitations, the possibilities then please contact us on +44 (0)1722 744 574.
