Exploiting the web for business.

Gridware is a consultancy and service provider specialising in the development and management of web based business systems.

From Microsoft Office Live and Google Apps to SalesForce.com, business software is increasingly being delivered as a service via the Internet and your web browser.

By exploiting software as a service (also known as on–demand software) businesses large and small can deploy reliable and flexible business systems, which can be shared by customers and suppliers, at a fraction of the cost of traditional software.

There are literally thousands of business applications and software services out there. You can use just one of them, or you can integrate several to get the business system you need.

At Gridware, our job is to help you take advantage of these new opportunities to streamline your business and become more competitive.

• Are you still struggling with legacy contact management systems like Act or Goldmine?
• Do you need to integrate your systems with those of your customers and suppliers?
• Do you need a project management system which you can share with clients and suppliers?
• Do you want to take advantage of text messaging to communicate with your customers?
• Do you need access to your business information form smartphones or your laptop whilst you're on the move?
• Do you wonder whether a blog or social networking techniques can help you boost your customer base?

Social networking did we hear you ask? We know of one small business that posted a product video on YouTube just to see what would happen. It's been viewed 36,000 times!

Some of the systems we've delivered.

• Streamlining the management of brand materials for medium and large businesses.
• IT Job tracking and asset management integrated with customer and supplier systems.
• Import/export and sales agent management.
• Recruitment - applicant tracking, search and select including full web site integration, bulk text messaging and email services.
• Automated workflow for centralised garage forecourt maintenance and administration covering 100 sites.

All of them take full advantage of the web to drive down costs and streamline business operations. In many cases, our systems directly help our clients win new business.

Gridware can help you determine the best ways of exploiting the web for your business, and we'll provide the expertise and services to put together a powerful business solution for you.
