Introduction

Platinum for Windows is one of the most comprehensive Windows financial application packages on the market, providing small to medium-sized companies with a flexible, easy to use client/server computing system at reasonable prices. The Platinum Series has been on the market since 1984 and has been installed in more than 30,000 customer sites worldwide.

For businesses whose corporate computing environment consists of PC-based local area networks (LANs), Platinum for Windows provides robust functionality in a familiar Microsoft Windows graphical environment. The system is designed around the interface standards of Microsoft Windows 98. It utilizes an advanced three-tier architecture where tasks such as posting routines, reports, listings, and utilities run on application servers instead of client workstations to increase user productivity.

Platinum for Windows provides seamless communication from the client and the server to the LAN-standard Pervasive SQL database. Since many small to mid-sized companies have little or no internal information systems support, Platinum for Windows has simple installation and maintenance requirements.
