Testimonial(s)
"We view the BeanStore technology as a hidden gem, the technology is very flexible. You can put pieces of the framework and the solution wherever you want it."

"When we first chose the technology we were looking at a distributed model, with both data and applications in each store. About six to eight months into the project, we decided to trust the WAN network we were using to connect all the stores. Because we could count on a reliable network, we decided to go to a centralized model, where all the data resides in our Atlanta corporate data center, and the only thing in the store is the application code required to run the GUI presentation interface."

"One of the largest financial benefits of this centralized model is that we didn't have to implement a server-based machine in each store. Now in our stores, literally every workstation is just a low-cost PC that's attached through the network."

"The commitment and ownership of the project from the PCMS resources was just as strong as that from our internal folks. They 'owned' it and wanted to see the success as much as we did."
