Create
value, according to Alfaproject.net, means
develop
IT solutions which allow to obtain
a real
added value that can be proved.
Alfaproject.net’s mission is bringing innovation in
unexplored business areas through the use of the latest technologies
and of new ways of thinking. Alfaproject.net operates paying
attention to all the phases of every e-business project and
is guided by the following principles:
> Client-oriented vision
> Web-based technologies for the integration of systems
> Overcoming the logic “licence for user”
> ASP approach to the data processing services
> Open source model
Client oriented vision. From an data processing
point of view the client oriented vision means realising a
software based on the specifications given by the client and
never adapt the clients’ needs to a software solution.
This approach may seem obvious but this is often what happens when
you acquire a software product.
This is why Alfaproject.net claims not to have a particular
“faith” in data processing, but is just guided
by the logic of efficiency and effectiveness of the solutions
and of the data processing technologies offered by the market:
the problem generates the solution, not the contrary
Web-based technologies. For what concerns
the integration of systems, the web-based technologies represent
a revolution in the way they spread knowledge and information
and in how they develop new data processing solutions.
Web-based technologies are Alfaproject.net’s reason
of existence since they offer a “widespread”
approach to the data processing problems and they combine
the huge power of information supplied by the web technologies
with the traditional informative systems
Overcoming the logic “licence for user”.
This is the logical consequence for the web-based technologies:
Alfaproject.net does not sell products and/or licences but
develops solutions and supplies services.
ASP approach to the data processing services.
There is no sense in install, manage and maintain the data
processing application at home, with the relative costs,
when you have the opportunity to use it via Internet while
someone else cares about the hardware and software. Alfaproject.net
cares about this: its web farm allocates the applications
in remote modality (ASP – Application Service Provisioning),
whether they have been developed by Alfaproject.net or by
the client, such granting reliability and security.
Moreover ASP model means also supplying the so-called “Managed
Services”, which are: Desktop Fleet Management, Asset
Management, Remote Control, Software Delivery, IMAC, Backup
Services. Outsourcing the management of data processing
systems and of PCs is no more something addressed only to
the great enterprises, so make yourself comfortable.
Open source model. “Open source”
is nowadays a synonym of everything. According to Alfaproject.net
“open source” means developing open source applications,
whether it is a free or proprietary software. Alfaproject.net
has been long using both Microsoft and Linux technologies,
so to exploit the best solution which suit the situation
best, without any “religious” prejudice on the
different software environments: the main target is the
solution, not the means.
