Process improvements for medium-sized enterprises

Cost effective solution
Workspace is based on J2SE architecture. This makes the total cost of ownership (TCO) very reasonable compared to usually oversized J2EE-based e-commerce solutions.

Medium-sized enterprises of which 90% probably do not need J2EE can make great savings by choosing J2SE-based Workspace solution. E-commerce systems built with MySQL database, Apache Tomcat Servlet Container and Smilehouse Workspace can cost even ten times less than oversized enterprise level J2EE software.

Workspace requires only small project expenditure and enables a short time-to-market thanks to pre-built components and easy-to-use management interface.
