Why Outsource Applications to an ASP?
From the point-of-view of the small business or individual site owner, there are numerous advantages in using ASP Click and Install Applications:
- Most of our ASP scripts are open source so you need only pay for the hosting component.
- Most scripts are supported by the vendor through direct or forum based help systems.
- Some offer a low annual support cost.
- Software updates are usually free and installable by you.
- Branding is easy requiring only a few changes such as a graphic, logo or text.
- As a business owner you get more time to focus on your core business.
- Control operating costs, including upfront and ongoing capital investments.
- Most ASP's offer a business class infrastructure with high availability clustered server environments.
- From the user's perspective, the equipment and space requirements are greatly reduced, leaving IT personnel free to address other issues besides program operations.
- The ASP will provide an SLA (Service Agreement) detailing backup options, server up times, software licensing and other legal concerns.
- Especially for small businesses and startups, the biggest advantage is low cost of entry and, in most cases, an extremely short setup time.
- Literally dozens of applications are available from within the ASP's user control panel at a cost of $ 40 monthly.
- By using an ASP you can avoid major issues of hardware, software and middleware management, maintenance and upgrades .
- Applications are all accessed via a web browser and no additional client software is needed.
Listed to your right are the click and install applications available with our premium hosting accounts. These are included free of charge and the number of applications you can host on your site is only limited by the available number of databases available to you. The HSphere plans are also available for Windows Hosting Plans.
In the very near future we will also have available the below ASP scripts through our Website, ASP Providers:
- ASP Mailer - Web based email marketing solution and autoresponder software. Easy to use and very powerful with mailing lists of up to 300,000
- ASP Live Help - A web based customer support software solution that combines live chat, a helpdesk and searchable knowledgebase.
- ASP WebDrive - Web based file manager that allows anyone to quickly and easily store and retrieve files on a secure system that is accessible from anywhere.
More applications will be coming very soon!
