All types of websites

When it comes to making data accessible using web technology, we have years of experience, and success. We can make websites for inhouse use (an intranet), or for a dispersed, private group of users, such as your customers and suppliers (an extranet), or for use by the public on the internet. In all cases we provide extensive content management facilities, securely and privately accessible via the internet. While the public website can be promoted via search engines, the content management part remains hidden.

Business inter-connections

We can give your website and database some powerful business connections using email, fax, iDTV, XML, Quark X-press, e-commerce banking connections, SSH, SCP, FTP, etc.

Flexible content management

You can have secure closed, multi-layered, user groups and multi-language content management.

Technology platforms

For the past few years we have adopted LAMP technology:

  

Linux

A fast, reliable computer operating system.

Apache

The most popular web server - it is versatile and ultra reliable.

MySQL

A straightforward reliable and flexible database system.

PHP

This is a 3G language which enable us to develop and support complex applications.
When creating the web pages we use HTML, XHTML, JavaScript and more recently AJAX coding. As we create webpages that have a logical structure they are readily analysed by the search engines and web crwaler. Also, and very importantly, the pages can be modified with a mimimum of effort as your business needs change.

Example websites with extensive content management .....

Internet based.........

Historic Transport Information
We developed a series of data entry pages that enable contributors to this web site to add and modify data without needing to know how to code web pages. The database consists of many pages subdivided into types (e.g. picture gallery) and each page is subdivided into paragraphs and each paragraph is further subdivided. Pictures and PDF files can be uploaded all without the user needing to be a computer expert. Overall, there are thousands of paragraphs and many hundreds of pictures and the site is still growing!
Estate Agency

Monkhouse is a long established Estate Agent specialising in country properties especially those with equestrian facilities. They can enter the property details, from either of their branches, and our software then creates the necessary index and detail pages. We adopted this approach to give a better exposure to the search engines. Pictures and PDF files can be uploaded in a straightforward manner. Overall, the customer has a site that is easy to use but provides excellent access to anyone looking to buy a property.

Intranet/Extranet based..........
We can arrange demonstrations of these application.

Blood Analysis and Transfusion Laboratory applications
The Northern Ireland Antenatal Patient Testing System is a highly secure and reliable MySQL database system, serving all the hospitals and GPs throughout the province.
We have also developed a universal Blood Bank Management System for hospitals. This product was devloped in partnership with IBG Immucor, an established and trusted company in this field.
Asset Management and Job Control
Systemextra is a company which services sophisticated IT equipment for a large number of clients around the UK and Europe. We have built a private extranet website that keeps track of all the clients' equipment and allows onsite and in-house engineers to track service and repair jobs. Contracts, waranties and job invoices are also managed via the system.
