Central Database - Asta Teamplan
At the core of Asta Teamplan is a central database where all project, resource and cost details are stored. All elements of the Asta Teamplan solution link into this central data repository.
The central database is real-time and supports multiple users. Tables and user-defined fields can easily be added, ensuring the database holds all information required.
The database can be hosted on Oracle Servers (8, 9 and 10g), Microsoft SQL Servers (Server 2000 and Server 2005 - Enterprise, Standard, Workgroup and Express Editions) and most other ODBC compatible datasources.
For more information on the technical specifications for the central database, please visit our systems requirements.
Central Database - Key Benefits
Key benefits of Asta Teamplan's central database include:
improved visibility
By storing all information in one central place, managers have full visibility over the entire portfolio of projects.
improved collaboration
Thanks to the real-time database, changes to any project automatically become visible to other users so everyone works with the very latest information. Team members can access the system simultaneously so several people can be working on the same project at any one time.
User rights and permissions determine exactly which data different users can view and edit.
compatible with other systems
The database is based on industry standard open technologies. It can be integrated with existing business systems within organisations such as accounting systems or HR software.
safe and secure
The database has crash protection which ensures that no data is lost - not even unsaved edits - if there is a failure with either a user's computer, the server or the connection between them.
