This is particularly important in the current global environment of rapidly-increase labor costs.
Case Study
The Problem
Estates often lack the trained manpower to manage complex software systems. They also sometimes operate in difficult environments where internet connections and electricity supply are unstable. The software has to be simple (easy to use), comprehensive (able to cover many tasks) and resilient (able to operate even with unreliable data infrastructure).
