VISANOW ILLUSTRATES THE ADVANTAGES
OF A WEB-BASED HR SOLUTION
Web-based technology that utilizes
the Internet as its delivery
platform maximizes benefits and
minimizes costs
CHICAGO, IL June 25, 2008
– Technology has
revolutionized the human resource
department by streamlining
administrative tasks and supporting
HR best practices. Whether it is a
fully integrated HRIS package or a
company-wide intranet, technology
has redefined the workplace and
boosted internal performance.
Despite the benefits associated with
implementing a successful technology
solution, IT spending is expected to
decline due to the faltering
economic environment. VISANOW, a
leading immigration solutions
provider, offers a simple solution
for moving forward with an IT
investment while working within a
reduced budget.
“For HR departments to accelerate
productivity and ROI in today’s
economic climate, Web-based
solutions can enhance performance
and provide a competitive edge while
spreading the cost of ownership
across multiple departments,” said
VISANOW CEO Robert Meltzer. “When
compared with traditional software
packages and Web-enabled solutions,
Web-based applications offer more
security and accessibility and are
far less expensive to set up and
manage.”
The differences between Web-based
and Web-enabled applications are
significant. Web-based systems use
the Internet as their platform and
have no additional software
requirements. Web-enabled systems
are modified software applications
that provide Internet capability
through the use of an entry point or
add-on software. Because Web-enabled
systems utilize client-server
technology, not Web technology, they
involve added costs for deployment
and support. Additional software
needs to be purchased, distributed,
installed and maintained on all user
workstations and laptops. In
contrast, Web-based systems are
customized and updated on the server
so that all users log onto the most
current software version and the
same data regardless of geographic
location.
By utilizing the Internet as its
application delivery platform,
Web-based solutions offer multiple
advantages:
- Broad accessibility: By leveraging
the Internet as its architecture,
Web-based applications support HR
departments’ increasing need for
access to information across
multiple locations. Secure access to
information is available from any
computer with Web browser software
and Internet access.
- Ease of set up: Web-based
applications require no
installation, configuration or hard
drive space, eliminating the time
and expense required to install and
configure new software packages at
each work station.
- Ease of management: Because the
vendor handles all system upgrades
and enhancements, the latest updates
are instantly available to all users
whenever and wherever they access
the application.
- Cost reduction: Web-based options
can reduce or eliminate many upfront
and ongoing expenses such as those
associated with deployment, software
licensing, operational and
maintenance.
“HR departments need to be prepared
to prove that the technology
investment will deliver a
substantial bang for the buck,” said
Meltzer. “Immigration services
provide a compelling example of the
advantages of utilizing an
innovative Web-based solution to
slash costs and improve HR
performance. With a Web-based
solution, immigration service
providers can easily scale to
increase workload, expedite client
communications and more effectively
respond and adapt to a full range of
client needs.”
