Setting the Scene

Last year we took on an elderly, undocumented Access 97 database linked to a MySQL back-end. The task was to fix existing problems, upgrade to Access 2007 and Vista, and bring the functionality in line with current business practices. It would involve an independent re-build (mainly off site) so that existing operations could continue unhindered.

Concurrent upgrading changes weren’t ideal: when a problem arose, we had to work out whether it was due to a flaw in the original database, or 97 to 2007 differences, or some aspect of the Access to ODBC driver to MySQL linkage.

With Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and other social networking websites being introduced rapidly, the fact that number of social networking users has doubled since 2007 isn’t much of a suprise.

To be accurate, just in the US alone, 55.6 million adults visit social networks monthly, according to a Forrester research report. Thus, Social networking is a more popular indulgence than even Instant messaging among adults. However,with regards to activities encompassing watching of videos, online shopping, and emails, social networking hasn’t gain that much attention as of yet.

ComnetSolutions has a team which are focusing on rapid development of social networking web 2.0 style portals for clients in Singapore and abroad. We have a developed framework upon which we are able to combine modules and customize them for each project.

New modules are being introduced every fortnight to offer our clients an effective and powerful solution.

Moritex Singapore being the newest addition to the Moritex Corporation world wide sought to develop an intuitive website which would stand out amongst all the other Moritex sites around the world. With her massive product catalogue, and informational updates, Moritex Singapore also required a Content Management System (CMS) built to accommodate their frequent updates.

While an open source platform was reviewed, their intricate product categorization meant that a Customized Product E-Catalogue had to be developed. ComnetSolutions worked closely with the Moritex team to implement an E-Catalogue system to enable them to manage multi tier categorization of their products. Other CMS modules were also implemented to allow their team to update their site content easily. AJAX technology was incorporated to ensure that the product browsing was of a high level of usability. Design of the site was also never relegated to 2nd place.

ComnetSolutions stayed dedicated to the Moritex team and assisted in making multiple revisions till beyond Client satisfaction. The result was a website which stood out from the rest of the Moritex sites around the world.

Although new in the industry as a startup company, the team at Resonance-Consultancy are experienced and experts in their field. Their request was for the website to show exactly that.

We had to avoid a design that made the client look small or like a start up. A sleek flash intro was done up for the website to give the website an “up-market” design feel and also to portray the company’s beliefs.

With form came functionality. ComnetSolutions developed a resource management system for the site to allow Resonance Consultancy to communicate with their clients in a restricted log-in area, and share documents and information with individual clients, and even update them!

A back end system was also developed to allow our client to manage each client, and the resources available to that client with ease via our proprietary Content Management System (CMS).
