Simpliciti Server side workspaces, allow the kiosk or end users browser interface to be placed on the server. 

This makes changing the PC clients view & functionality of the browser or kiosk to be instantaneously adjusted an viewed by all client participants. This also allows for different clients to have different browser or kiosk functionality without having to deliver additional software to the client systems.

The Case for Simpliciti Internet Presentation Software

SIPS

Public Domain Browsers and their respective user interface present users with many features and functions that are not needed in many enterprises, commercial and educational environments.  

Desktop browser applications have served to increase IT costs to the point where tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars are spent annually on applications whose sole purpose is to limit the risks and costs associated with browser usage. Typical areas of concern are

• Network management and utilization
• Total Cost of Ownership at both the desktop and network levels
• The risks associated with security and safety of data and employees
• Productivity

Simpliciti Internet Presentation Software (“SIPS”) is a new configurable Internet presentation technology that resides on your Web servers AND delivers customized browser-like functionality and capabilities to your desktop PCs.

SIPS based solutions are the most cost effective, safe and secure alternative to client-side browser applications such as Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, etc. Each SIPS Server-side Workspace can be configured to suit the needs of a specific user group or profile. This configurability extends to areas such as;

• User Navigation Controls (Visual)
• Branding
• User Navigation Restrictions (domain based, etc)

In other words end users can be delivered as much or as little browser functionality best suited to complement their work activities.

SIPS solutions can also be configured to safely deliver productivity enhancing features that are not found in typical browsers including:

·        Multi state, context maintained, tabbed interfaces

·        Browsing options such as allowing downloads, clearing history and allowing access to navigation options can be controlled via preset configuration of the workspace as well as dynamically controlled via code on html pages.

·        Password protected access and control for shared or common use devices

·        Configurable, integrated timer controls

·        Lockdown of browser and or Desktop

HOW IT ALL WORKS

Server Side Activities:

Each SIPS workspace starts from a configurable template that you acquire from us. Each template offers a Set-Up screen that presents the options you wish to select. Once configured, the Server side workspace is ready to be stored on your Web Server, much like any web page.

This server side workspace contains all of the functional elements needed to interact with your Internet applications and content.

Client Side Activities:

In order to ensure the fastest and most robust user experience, each SIPS workspace seamlessly captures the power and flexibility of the client side OS and processor by enlisting the support of a set of specially designed ActiveX controls that can be pre installed on a one time only basis on any target PC. These controls install in seconds and fully support automated delivery via the network

Using a SIPS Server Side Workspace

The desired server side workspace is automatically accessed when the application is started on the client.

Accessing a server workspace on the client can be as easy as turning on the PC. The client application can be configured to auto start with the PC for Kiosk or single purpose clients.

Alternatively the server workspace can be accessed by the client application when started via desktop Icon or from a windows menu.

As easy to maintain as a Web Page:

Should the need arise to change a SIPS Workspace it’s simply a matter of reconfiguring the workspace and replacing the old one. There is no additional client side distribution.
