Absolutely! Ollie is managed using the same Simple Accounting Security Extensions as in SAFE for Windows. SASE allows you to change which menus, icons, buttons and so forth are on screen for every user who logs in to SAFE whether over the Internet or in your office.
To demonstrate our point this, click here to view two versions of the same data entry screen for a sales order line item; the first a view for a user in your office, the second appropriate for a remote customer doing on-line ordering. Note the simplified look of the second example.

Of course! Ollie appears just like any other link on a web page. Design your own web site and place your link to WebSAFE where you want it, or have our designers custom create a complete web site to your taste. We can design a consistent look and feel with advanced features that intelligently present WebSAFE to users who are supposed to have access but does not even display to those who are not!

That’s what we’re here for! If your volume warrants an in-house server, the easiest solution is to purchase Microsoft’s Small Business Server® software bundle.

If you are using an in-house web server, WebSAFE lives on your server. You can also install WebSAFE on any Linux based web hosting service.

If you are running WebSAFE on an in-house server, you’re using the same database as SAFE for Windows. This has the advantage of concurrency; any transaction entered in WebSAFE is instantly available in SAFE.

Also, our SASE add-on program offers data encryption to prevent users from copying data to their local machines.

Ollie should run on any web hosting plan that supports MySQL5 and PHP5. However, we strongly recommend the use of a dedicated server plan and not a shared hosting plan. Although the feature set of shared hosts seems adequate there is a reason they tend to be so inexpensive—slow response! WebSAFE requires the bandwidth that usually is only available via dedicated server packages.

No. We do not re-sell hosting services because we prefer to remain neutral and objective. Every business has different needs. We can give you recommendations based on current customer feedback, but we recommend a bit of research as hosting performance changes frequently among the larger companies.

This is a tough one for lots of businesses as the market for internet services is still relatively immature.
If you host your own web server, we recommend that you strongly consider an ISDN or ADSL link from your server to your internet provider:
