Friday Training Follow Up

Robert Stephen Consulting, LLC has begun to provide free 30-minute Client Training session every Friday again!  RSC prides itself in providing learning opportunities for our clients.  We feel that if our clients know the system better, we will able to work better with them to discover and implement the solutions that they need.  

Our first session was 10/9.  Last week we discussed Client/Server vs. Web Central vs. Smart Client.  Here are some highlights from the training, in case you missed it:

Client/Server 

Client/Server has been the go-to program for years. It is a solid work horse, but it is no longer being developed. 21.1 was the last version. If you have Smart Client, I recommend using it as much as possible.

Benefits:

• Pretty much indestructible - Connection to DB can be very direct.
• Bullet proof database update tools
• LOTS of history: *.abs files and *.avw files that may not exist in Web Central

Web Central

Web interface to the ARCHIBUS database, only requires a web browser to run.

Benefits:

• Roles based
• Views based
• "Pretty" Reports/ Dashboards
• Pages interface
• Web server

Smart Client

The new Client/Server.

Benefits:

• On the fly creation of views
• Saved views are easy to develop and instantly available
• Filters are easier to develop
• Views with relationships between tables are easy to produce
• Limited to 3 levels down
• Better integration between application and AutoCAD
