Reliable
You need employees who show up for work every day and do their jobs. You shouldn’t expect less than that from an enterprise content management platform your entire organisation depends on.
Reliability is not a feature that can be tacked on to software — it has to be infused into the product at every stage of its creation and deployment through intelligent engineering, an uncompromising development methodology, and effective system implementation techniques.
Perceptive Software makes ImageNow reliable by starting with a mature programming language. Building and testing the application suite around a common “platform abstraction” layer means that ImageNow runs on multiple platforms yet avoids potential OS-specific issues.
By distributing its clients, database, server and storage components over multiple tiers, ImageNow not only gains better performance, but helps isolate problems and reduces the likelihood of any component being a single point of failure.
And with its support for redundant storage systems and server failover clustering, ImageNow guards against potential hardware and network issues that can affect any computer application.
Reliability like that means an ECM platform that’s always ready to work for you.
- Unified Platform Development
ImageNow runs on Windows, Linux, Solaris, AIX and HP-UX, but all versions share core application logic — the “heart” of the application’s function set.
Isolating platform-specific code during development and testing means OS-specific issues are limited, so you get consistent operation regardless of the platform you run on.
