Why ASP?
From its inception, the designers of the innovative Boardwalk Collaboration Software solution decided to employ the ASP (Application Service Provider) model for its customers. For starters, our ASP solution can be implemented almost instantly and the capital risk is virtually non-existent since you don’t need to purchase any additional hardware or software or pay for high-priced consultants to install it. According to numerous studies, an ASP-type solution can save more than 80% compared to the total cost of ownership of a comparable software solution in which the server resides on-site.
Then there is the crucial matter of security. With Boardwalk, your data is much safer with us than with most servers that you can find for in-house use. We use the Solaris operating system on our servers - an operating system that is considered more secure than Linux or Microsoft, and one that is nearly impenetrable to hacking, “denial of service” or viral attacks. And better yet, the HIPPA-level data security we provide with Boardwalk doesn’t cost extra – it is included in our low monthly rates.
With our ASP solution, you can maximize all the profit-enhancing benefits Boardwalk can bring to your operations - with no worries about hardware, installations, maintenance, security and extraneous employees or consultants.
Check out the most compelling benefits of our ASP model below and you will get a sense of how cost-effective and convenient this approach will be for your business.
