A Web-based application
can be anything from a dynamic Form builder or a Regulatory
database, to a comprehensive Intranet System - as long as
it runs through a Web browser.
The most common Web-based
application is a Content Management System, which allows your
staff to maintain the content on your Web site. For other
examples, well the sky is the limit.
There are many benefits
of a Web-based application over traditional desktop software.
The main benefit is distributed authoring, meaning your sales
team can suddenly take their software on the road with them,
or your stock management can be handled internationally. By
having a centralised Web-based application, multiple people
can edit the same content/data remotely, without the associated
hassles of version-control across PC's.
