Technology Used Properly
No business application suite leverages the power of
Microsoft better than UA - period! Only UA uses pure Microsoft Technology
with no proprietary code or programming tools to make UA intuitive and
completely
accessible by the millions of users and developers who rely on
Microsoft.
UA's Visual Interface is built with the exact technology platform that
Microsoft uses for their own Office suite - .NET and Visual Basic for
Applications (VBA). With .NET and VBA as our front end interface, we gain
perfect compatibility with Office and the power to use the world's most
popular database management tool, Access, as the standard customization tool
for UA!
Take a look at the way legacy accounting software vendors like MBS-AX,
MAS 90, Epicor, and others have attached to Microsoft SQL Server
with their proprietary front end databases, interfaces that were configured
to manage systems built long before MS SQL ever existed. Nearly all of these
"industry leading" packages were built for database technologies from the
80`s! This highly limited approach essentially relegates SQL Server to a
role as a glorified file/server with massive storage capability but little
use of the data management power that SQL Server brings. The configuration
of SQL Server with other software packages certainly works, but why would
you accept this sort of design?
UA's SQL Server-optimized Enterprise suite provides the full advantages of
SQL Server's powerful data management capabilities. For example, UA builds
in thousands of stored procedures to make massive information handling tasks
fast and efficient - something not possible with other software
configurations. UA provides a fully normalized database across both the
front end and back end for an efficient connection throughout the entire
system. UA's SQL Server configuration also takes full advantage of SQL
Server's intensive server side processing power, up to terabytes of data, to
manage your system resources and allow you maximum productivity.
Customization - The customization tool for UA Enterprise is Microsoft
Access and the UA Business Framework. Because Access uses VBA code and a variety of visual tools and
wizards to "drag and drop" objects onto forms, reports, and queries, your
time to develop or customize UA is rapid and efficient. With Microsoft NAV
or GP Dexterity code, older versions of Visual Basic or other non-object-oriented
tools used by competitive applications, the task of customization is
cumbersome and risky at best.
