Hosting
The Service
Application Service Providers (ASP’s) are
reshaping the Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
environment. ASP, also known as application hosting,
is an innovative new model that allows businesses
to access applications that are housed, maintained,
upgraded and supported off-site. No software is
installed on the end-user’s PC. Rather, businesses
gain access to the software using a virtual
private network (VPN) or wide area network (WAN)
and a standard Web browser (i.e. Netscape Navigator
or Internet Explorer). End-users can be operational
in just a few minutes.
The Benefits
Traditional technology ownership requires expenditures,
not only for equipment, but also for system administration
and maintenance. The creeping costs for these tasks
make it difficult to effectively recognize a return
on investment.
In contrast, costs can be reduced and
controlled when applications are accessed over the
web with an ASP vendor who maintains and hosts the
application and the database. In addition, the ASP
handles other system maintenance tasks, including
back up, recovery, upgrades, network management
and user additions and deletions.
TLS follows superior systems procedures
for disaster recovery, user support, system upgrades,
bug resolution, version control and data security.
