Technical Overview & Hardware Requirements

Easy to install and maintain

Time and costs are kept to a minimum, because IntaChange is installed on a central server and doesn’t need to be installed or configured on individual machines. It can be used 24/7 from any location with internet access.

Simple to set up

IntaChange comes with a comprehensive HTML Help function that takes you through the basic set up and installation in a few simple stages.

No training needed

Once set up, you should be off and running in a couple of hours. No special IT skills are needed and there’s no need for any special training.

Configure to your way of working

IntaChange can be adapted to your workflow, terminology, working practices and user preferences. Simple administration screens and wizards help you to customize fields, menu values, GUI, email alerts, reports and much more.

Set it up to use any change documentation naming system that you wish, for example, ‘Change Requests’, ‘Requests for Change’, ‘Trouble ‘Tickets’, ‘Incidents’, ‘Problems’, ‘Issues’ etc.

Define your own user fields

Define precisely what information you want to store about a change. There’s no limit to the number of fields you can define, or the types of fields you can have. You decide whether fields are mandatory or optional and field values can be used for calculation purposes, just like a spreadsheet.

Specify who does what

You can specify roles which are allowed to perform whatever actions you decide. And you can choose which privileges or permissions are granted to specified groups of users.

Enforce your procedures

You can also set up IntaChange to make sure that users can’t progress from one status to another until a specific field has been completed, or that specific fields are not completed without supportive information from other fields.

SECURE, ROBUST DATABASE

As well as SQL Server 2000, IntaChange supports SQL Server 2005 as the database engine and SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services (SRS or SSRS), making it a secure, robust database application.

FULLY SCALEABLE

The only limits on IntaChange are down to the capacity of your server and your network. There is no limit to the amount of users who can access the system, and no limits on the amount of information you can store.

LICENSING

IntaChange is supplied on a concurrent licensing basis. This enables you to share one licence between several people providing you with significant savings over other licensing schemes. In a typical scenario we would recommend buying 1 user licence for every 5 potential users.
