Company Announces that New Automotive Repair Software will Make Ordering Easier than Ever and Cut Down on Costs

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 00:00:00 PST

Mesa, AZ (IPRWIRE) Thurs. July 24th, 2008 -- Alliance Computer Services, Inc. (www.shopcontroller.com) has just gone public with their new automotive repair software. The company claims that they will be able to make ordering much easier for companies. They also state that overhead costs will be cut because of the ease of use and functionality of this program. The program uses Wrenchhead's Nexpart catalog along with a labor guide. It is also integrated with WORLDPAC's speedDIAL catalog for a greater ease of use.

The new program is expected to make ordering parts easier than ever for companies, as they will have all of the tools they need right at their fingertips. This is the fourth level of the Shopcontroller program. Each level thus far has been met with success for the company. The company offers the separate levels of functionality to fit different budgets and brings new technology to all businesses.

Along with their announcement, the company has cited cases studies to show that this method works. The first case study for the automotive repair software involves Bell Auto of Phoenix, Arizona. The company had been using the speedDIAL catalog manually before they started using the new program. When they were using speedDIAL manually, they were unable to bring parts directly into the management program. Now, with the new program, they are able to do just that. They claim they save time by not copying and pasting information anymore. The time saved has allowed the company to save money as well.

The second case study involves Doug's Transmission in Mesa, Arizona. The business claims they have enhanced their management experience by using the new program. They are looking forward to it helping their business for years to come.

The company says that these are just two of the many businesses that have been helped by their program.

Alliance Computer Services, Inc. has been developing software for this industry since 1992. Their four level Shopcontroller program is used internationally.

Phoenix, Arizona (IPRWIRE) Tues, April 3rd, 2007 -- CrystalTech Web Hosting™ (www.crystaltech.com), a Newtek Business Services™ company (NASDAQ: NEWT) and a leading provider of Windows web hosting, is pleased to announce they have increased their sponsorship commitment of the open source web application platform DotNetNuke™ (DNN). The upgrade to Platinum Sponsorship not only expands the partnership between CrystalTech and the DNN Core Team, but also continues CrystalTech’s support of the development community in general and gives CrystalTech customers an efficient way to create anything from a simple website to a full corporate intranet.

"CrystalTech has long had a well-regarded reputation within the developer community for our high level of service, fast adoption of the latest technologies and the sense of community found on our public forums," said Robert Cichon, President of CrystalTech. "These are all core values found within the entire DotNetNuke team. We are, understandably, very proud to offer our continued support to developers and look forward to bringing the newest technology to our customers faster and more affordably than any other host in the industry."

CrystalTech offers a simple, convenient method to implement and use DotNetNuke on their shared .NET 2.0 Intermediate and above hosting plans. Using the first fully-automated DNN installation tool from within CrystalTech’s WebControlCenter, customers can quickly and easily get started creating, deploying and managing up to 100 different websites and portals -- all within the same hosting plan.

"With their latest release of version 4.4.x, DotNetNuke has increased base performance while significantly reducing the amount of memory usage each installation consumes," says Cichon. "Apart from the benefits we see server-side, this performance increase offers a significant reduction in page load times, which translates to more visitors staying on an end-user's site. The dedication to continued improvement on both the administration as well as end-user side makes our support for DNN a very easy decision to make."

Full details regarding the ASP.NET 2.0 plans with DotNetNuke 4.4.x can be found at http://www.crystaltech.com/landingdnn.aspx?uid=231. For more information on DotNetNuke, see www.dotnetnuke.com.

CrystalTech, A Web Hosting Company, Announces Support For Latest Programming Framework

Thu, 01 Feb 2007 00:00:00 PST

Phoenix, Arizona (IPRWIRE) Thurs, Feb. 1st, 2007 -- CrystalTech Web Hosting™ (www.crystaltech.com), a Newtek Business Services™ company (NASDAQ: NEWT), is pleased to announce support for ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 on all of its ASP.NET 2.0 shared hosting plans. ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 (formerly known as "Atlas") allows programmers to quickly create more efficient and interactive web content that works across the most popular internet browsers. With this framework, web developers can enhance existing web pages, or create next-generation interfaces, with powerful AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) components. The main benefit to programmers is that the AJAX interface accesses remote services and data directly from the web browser, thereby reducing the number of post backs to the host server. This action makes for a more seamless and natural experience for the end user.

"We are extremely pleased to offer ASP.NET developers support for this innovative framework," said Robert Cichon, CrystalTech’s President. "CrystalTech is completely committed to bring the latest technologies, like ASP.NET AJAX, to our customers quickly and affordably. With our feature-packed and economically-priced web hosting plans for ASP.NET 2.0, we want to provide our hosting customers the first opportunity to use this technology and take their websites to the next level."
