unlimited number of POS devices communicating with a database and application

NTC GRAN-Service
considers partnership with jBASE as a solid basis for providing perspective
platform for GRAN-Shop™ with better performance, openness and support.
Viktor E.
Avdey, GRAN-Service's CIO, states that "jBASE has been chosen because of their
capability to effectively help us at this stage of software evaluation and
prototyping. Along with excellent support quality, jBASE offers a resource
effective database engine, and a unique range of tools providing
interoperability with the standard development tools for GUI- and Web-based
applications. Our first project with jBASE is aimed
at
an accounting application migration of our long-term
customers from Mentor OS to jBASE. Taking into consideration that the customer
plans to re-engineer the user interface,
while
retaining
robust and proven business logic, we were looking for powerful and consistent
software,” continues Avdey, “From this perspective, we found jBASE's features
and support team's
responsiveness and skills superior to other MV offerings available on the
market. We found the
jBASE
and MPower1 people easy to deal with, and we hope that our partnership will be
both fruitful and pleasant."
Simon
Theobald, Director of jBASE International
Ltd.
and Mpower1, commented, “It is a pleasure to welcome GRAN-Service to the rapidly
expanding family of companies that have embedded jBASE in the heart of their
software products. The addition of GRAN-Service demonstrates effectively the
global applicability of the jBASE product set. jBASE will continue to raise the
standards in technology AND service that software companies around the world can
expect from their database and technology partner.”
