Summary
Customizable solution to create and support eCommerce market places.
Description
In the trading business there is quite a big number of standard and non-standard formats for storing and transferring information about products. This is why managing, cleaning or converting data stored in these formats is a routine task, especially for an enterprise. Our Caritoon solution provides an easy way for resolving these tasks. Information can be easily imported and exported to/from your database or even converted to any other format without accessing the database. An additionally embedded workflow engine provides a possibility to define business rules - sometimes being rather complicated - for controlling the process of data transformation or even making a full- fledged workflow definition corresponding to real business workflow of a company.
Additionally we need to point out that this solution can be configured to work either in a single- or multitenant mode. The multitenant mode makes this solution available for small companies that can share the cost of this solution with other companies.
Another option is scaling of application usage in a clustered mode.

Description
It is a Web 2.0 application which actually functions as a web operation system and allows small businesses and individual users abandon their habitual yet less-effective desktop solutions and transfer all working tools into the browser and thus economize on purchase and support of expensive programs.
This product is based on Web2.0, AJAX, DHTML technologies.
Working in the Webforce application you can store all information and programs you normally use in a so-called cloud which enables easy data exchange among your colleagues. Moreover, this smart application is not permanently connected to a certain computer and works in any place in case you have Internet and a web-browser.
Most applications are also available from mobile devices (like iPhone or Windows Mobile), including web-mail and calendar applications.
We have also developed a totally autonomous Linux(SLAX)-based solution for medium-priced laptops (netbooks/ultraportables), whose analog has recently been announced by Google (ChromeOS).
This solution is expected to be used by schools and kindergartens.
Webforce application advantages are obvious: firstly, school authorities will be able to save considerably on software purchase, and secondly, teachers will have total control over pupils' applications and actions.

Summary
Ad management solution which includes integrated dimensional data warehouse, and allows complex industry data delivery and reporting.
Description
It is a web application intended for web-publishers, advertising agencies and advertisers optimizing their business in the on-line advertising segment.
This application comprises a number of modules:
- a module generating contracts for advertising companies and firms providing resources for advertising placement;
- billing systems for counting incoming and outgoing funds and resources that were planned for consumption and actually consumed in the process of contract execution;
- reporting systems for diversified presentation of data and processes taking place during contracts execution;
- application integration with outside advertising servers (DoubleClick - DART, AdTech - Helios IQ, etc.)
Both outside API and a specially developed robot are used for data collection.
The essence of the problem is that numerous on-line advertising servers often have an out-dated and unfriendly interface.
We provide an efficient solution to this problem: the software reads information from these servers using API or a special robot, saves the information in its storage and then displays it in the way convenient for the user.
Users no longer need to visit several web sites, they just use this software that does everything for them!
Apart from that, the software makes it possible to check statistical data, compile reports, set auto-notification function for certain situations.
What's more, having its own full-fledged XML interface it is easily integratable in the existing enterprise management systems.

The solution allows easy, quick and cost-effective development of PLM solutions for any type of businesses taking into consideration features specific for every enterprise.
It has become possible due to a flexible "Smart PLM" platform we have developed.
It was written in AML/XML meta-model description language and based on Microsoft.Net technologies that make it possible to write and execute custom code at both client and server sides.
This product is targeted not only at end users but also at consulting companies that use the core and ready-made modules as a tool kit to shape final solutions for their own customers, such customers often being consumers and suppliers of spare parts used in product in-line assembly.

Description
We developed a web-based facility management application, which provides effective control over requests, complaints or reported issues, incidents, work orders, reservations, visitor registration, car fleet management. Access to all functionality is controlled by authorisation levels, and a variety of reports can be generated. The application was initially built with localization support. Every form and grid is customizabe on per-user level. Meta descriptions for the forms are read from the database on the fly, then transformed into HTML form and cached. A client may add a number of custom fields if necessary, and customize dynamic workflow for each service. The application consists of independent modules, which can be purchased and installed separately. It has a top-notch UI built with Ajax technology, including multiple-room agenda view. Every asset of the organization is stored in a single place - there is a catalogue which provides clear and convenient access to them from different places in the application (via hierarchical grids). The application also includes charge management module, which supports internal/external suppliers, cost centers, checks stock availability, charges per department/person, etc.

Summary
Allows import / opening SVG files
Description
This plug-in provides complete support to browse and open SVG files in Adobe products, with support of all Adobe Creative Suite capabilities. So, for InDesign all effects are applicable not to bounding box, but to SVG shapes. CMYK, export to all supported formats, flattening and high quality PDF are supported.
For Photoshop, layers are supported, and even better: when you open an SVG image in Photoshop it is automatically decomposed to layers, even in case no layers were used in SVG. The decomposition works over SVG content.
Technically, the core of SVG support is written in Java, and bundled to Adobe products via C++.
