Your Questions Answered

How do I choose a Business System?

Choosing a Business System is not that easy, especially as there are many to choose from and the better known names don't necessarily offer the best solutions. To get started, read our White Paper on the issue.

Will HansaWorld fit my business?

It probably will. HansaWorld is a good fit for most businesses, since it offers over 45 modules covering most business processes and industries. This is much more functionality in ONE fully integrated system than what any of our competitors offer. And with our customisation tools, we can make HansaWorld work for any business.

Why is HansaWorld different than other systems?

In many ways, HansaWorld is different. Here are some key points
- Its fully integrated - our competitors merely interface a couple of system and brand them under the same name.
- Its easy to use over the Wide Area Network and on mobile devices - making you mobile to a much greater extent than our competitors
- It runs on most platforms - our competitors mostly run on Windows only
- Its future proof - its easy for us to make HansaWorld run on any platform
- It offers more advanced features, such as built in communication and internet services
- Because its truly integrated, it can give you an instant 360 degree view of the customer
- Its easy to build new features and entire modules - you may even do this yourself (though some software programming skills are an advantage)
- It offers good value for money
- Its easy to install and maintain
- Its developed very fast, allowing your business to stay up to date with current technology, something we have done for nearly 20 years now...
- Its privately owned and priced in local currency, so you dont run the risk of an unpredictable future.
- Its supported by qualified accountants and business process specialists.
- Bottom line, its a business management system, not just an accounting system with a couple of nice features to wow you in the demonstration.

Does HansaWorld offer good value for money?

In selecting an accounting or business solutions package, the Total Cost of Ownership as well as the Return on Investment are of critical importance. HansaWorld offers the following advantages which should be considered:

• Mobility - HansaWorld is already available for use on mobile devices such as Pocket PC or Nokia Business Phones. HansaWorld works well over 3G/GPRS and even GSM networks, allowing you to be truly mobile

• Functionality - HansaWorld's wide range of modules allows for all business processes to be run in a single integrated system

• Operating system - Both HansaWorld clients and servers can run on Linux, Mac or Windows in a mixed network, which may eliminate the need to buy expensive operating system licences.

• Communications - HansaWorld does not need communications software such as Citrix or Terminal Server to run, allowing you to save on these third party licences.

• Integration - HansaWorld's fully integrated design allows efficiencies in workflows and processes which are impossible to achieve with systems that are merely a collection of separate interfaced programs

• Hardware - HansaWorld is built to be a lean system, allowing savings on server, client and data-line specifications

• Flexibility - HansaWorld can easily be deployed on a mixed network (Macintosh, Linux and Windows) and can utilize most existing infrastructure.

• Mail - By using HansaWorld's integrated mail, you may save on mail program license costs

• Office Applications - When using Linux, you have the option to use Openoffice for word processing, spreadsheets and other office applications which reduces the need for expensive licenses from other applications.

• Scalability - HansaWorld is fully scalable to a system of hundreds of users. Updates are straightforward and risk averse.

• Future Proof Technology - HansaWorld continuously adopts the latest technologies, such as ODBC and Open TCP/IP. This ensures that the solution is future proof.

• Internet - HansaWorld caters for an increasingly mobile world. HansaWorld allows users as well as customers to login via the internet to the central server to easily work in the main database, no matter where in the world they are.

• Business Phone - HansaWorld offers a built in intelligent PBX system, saving cost by replacing existing PBX infrastructure.
