Desktop application is an application that runs on the user’s desktop or laptop computer. Such applications can interact with server-side software, where they are known as thick clients.
Having the information you need at your fingertips without having to sort through a bunch of screens or views that you don’t use can have major impacts on your productivity. It is far easier to customize a desktop-based application built for your environment rather than a solution built with a one-size-fits-all mindset.
Web applications are exposed to more security risks than desktop applications. You can have a total control over the standalone applications and protect it from various vulnerabilities.
Desktop Applications are confined to a physical location and hence have usability constraint.
With a proper installation and configuration of the network edition of our software, you can access your Vehicle Fleet Manager as well as Tool and Asset Manager data from any computer that has the software installed on it. Install and configure the application at the office and access it remotely from a company laptop. Tap into your company data from a desktop at home. So long as you have the application and an internet connection, you have access to your data.
In many office environments, an interrupted internet connection means that work comes to a standstill. Production grinds to a halt because, in these situations, all of the company’s data and applications are housed off-site. Workers sit idle waiting for that connection to be re-established. A single outage can cost thousands of dollars in wasted productivity, not to mention the inability to access business critical data and information when it is needed.
