We help celebrate your technical diversity

 

Way back in 1909, Henry Ford said “They can have it in any color so long as it’s black”. A century later cars come in every color of the rainbow and manufacturers must accommodate customer preferences. Just as all-black Model T’s weren’t everyone’s cup of tea, companies today deploy a variety of servers, desktops, and mobile devices to accomplish their business goals. A software vendor that wants the attention of a business with a diverse technological infrastructure cannot afford to make only some users happy – they must accommodate everyone’s needs.

 

 

Software doesn’t come in colors, but the idea is the same and it drives us to build our systems to run on as many platforms as possible. This means we don’t just offer our Optix Server for Linux platforms – we support Linux, Solaris, AIX, Windows, and Mac OS X servers. That means we don’t make only Windows OS users happy with our native Optix Workstation for Windows– we do it for Mac OS X users also, with full support for the same features and scanners. Websites used to be optimized for browsers running on devices with a fixed width, height, and orientation – but today our Optix Web application must support a user base equipped with an ever-expanding variety of phones and tablets with screen sizes and resolutions that seem to change with each new model. We have almost certainly seen whatever mix of servers, desktops, and mobile devices you deploy – and if we haven’t, our software is flexible enough to accommodate something new.

 

 

Our Optix Server relies on a commercial relational database management systems (RDBMS) to attach index records to documents, perform workflow, maintain queues, and access a variety of database tables that help manage the storage, security, and lifecycle of the documents under it’s care. But which database? Just like your hardware infrastructure, a good document management company should be able to use whatever RDBMS package you have chosen to deploy – and we do. We have decades of experience interfacing with Oracle, Informix, Sybase, SQL Server, and many others. The database connectivity your company requires is already built into our Optix Server and will work right out of the box.

 

 

Mindwrap’s Optix Workstation and Optix Application Generator applications have been continuously developed, maintained, and improved since 1988, always keeping up with the latest advances in development tools, graphical user interface standards, and new releases of Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh operating systems. Before each release our software undergoes an extensive testing procedure to ensure functional parity across platforms as well as compliance with specific platform user interface standards and expectations. Unlike “browser-based” approaches used by our competitors to claim cross-platform status, we actually earn it by building software that consists of actual compiled native C++ (PC) and Objective C (Mac) applications – this ensures that we drive attached scanners at their absolute best speeds and puts the maximum power at your user’s fingertips.

 

 

Mobile users access the Optix Server using Optix Web, providing the capability to query databases using exactly the same search screen templates as our desktop apps, so users don’t need to learn anything new. Users can retrieve and view documents as well as participate in business processes automated with Optix Workflow.
