Features & Benefits Features Benefits Communication and Notification IMPs are portals that have full communication abilities. Each IMP forms a part of the client's communication network, enabling broadcasting, group-casting, and peer-to-peer communications. AppWares bypasses web pages and email to give direct, monitored and administered communications to the target audience. Customization IMPs are created to reflect our client's organizations, and the inherent functionality of their products or serves. IMP interfaces are limitless in design and functionality - from desktop portals, to specialized toolbars, to notification applications, to graphic characters. Information and media is easier to use and manage when desktop clutter is reduced and only the most relevant content is delivered through an intuitive interface. Multi-media display IMPs can display any media source supported by a browser in addition to native boundless media display format. This includes HTML, Flash, video, and audio sources. Multi-media display can be real-time or cached. Information delivery is not limited to standard means such as text and documents. Video, audio, HTML, Flash files, and many other formats are all easily disseminated to IMPs via dedicated channels. Administrators of the MyApp system can also determine whether the media is real-time or cached. Cross Platform IMPs are functional on Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000 XP, and CE (in development). In addition, IMPs are fully functional on Linux operating systems. AppWares IMPs are the first windowless applications with mini-browsers to run on both the Windows and Linux operating systems. This addresses the growing Linux community, specifically in government and education. A CE compatible version of the IMP is currently in development. Media Encryption All IMPs and media files both distributed and created in AppWares Producer is protected in encrypted state. Media is safeguarded against piracy. This prevents use of media files in such programs as Napster and other file sharing programs. Client broadcast/content control Administrators can control the communication channels, and determine the type of channels in their AppWares application: central broadcast, peer broadcast, and peer2peer channels. Administrators can also control the breadth of the communication network, and monitor activity within communication channels. Administrators can target communications and monitor activity of the IMPs. The easy to use MyApp broadcast center enables managers, system administrators, and support staff alike to broadcast their message, regardless of the level technological knowledge. Data transfer and caching IMPs enable the interruptible and transparent downloading of information. Once downloaded, information can be retrieved and catalogued, regardless of the connection type or speed. Interruptible and transparent downloads enables proactive targeting of file transfer. Because file downloads are interruptible, data can be passed to end-users regardless of their connection speed or quality - downloading files can resume if interrupted, and will viewed only once completely delivered. Rapid Prototyping and Development AppWares' Producer allows for the rapid prototyping and development of custom IMPs. Clients are given control of the look and functionality of the IMP Any AppWares application developed can be quickly integrated into new or existing corporate initiatives, without any loss in efficiencies or productivity. Clients can play and active role in the development cycle. Remotely Updateable All components of AppWares applications, including the System itself, are 100% remotely updateable. This includes content, appearance, functionality, communications, and infrastructure. This allows for reshaping of the application to fit new initiatives, without users to actively re-acquire (download) their client application. Tracking AppWares MyApp tracking system gives clients the ability to track and monitor all events activity resulting from their IMPs, as well as within the customer communication network. Clients can actively monitor the impact of their communications, user transactions, and response rates, and calculate their ROI. Security The IMPs themselves and the MyApp Servers have Multiple security layers, including: Proprietary hard encryption within the application SSL encryption for networking OpenSource Linux server model All transactions occurring through the IMP are secure and encrypted. All media and communications broadcast to the IMPs are accessible only to the intended audience, and virus-containing mediums are not supported or recognized by the applications. Application Integration/ Unified Access AppWares allows clients to quickly integrate enterprise applications and content sources. These include web-based applications, databases, desktop applications and CRM applications. Through application integration, an IMP brings together all or part of the resources end-users require. The IMP aggregates information sources into a single desktop interface. Self Propagation Any AppWares application and the associated communications network are designed to allow for monitored self-propagation. This feature is invaluable to any program where the success of an initiative is evaluated on the distribution of a product. Go back to Software/Technology
