Evolve uses a combination of different technologies to provide the flexibility that you need. We've chosen UNIX for the back-end (the files and the database) and Microsoft for the front-end (the interface that you see). This is because we believe in using the right tools for the right job.
Back-end - UNIX
As a server platform, UNIX is second to none. Over 70% of
the world's servers run it and this includes most major businesses
you can think of. Its reliability is legendary (it's not uncommon
to find UNIX servers that have gone for several years without
needing attention) and it's very cost effective.
Front-end software
Windows runs on 90% of the world's desktop machines, so when
it came to building the user interface it was the best choice.
Access to the database - whether through the web or via stand
alone client software provides seamless integration with
the software you already work with. Our engineering team ensure
that Evolve is always kept up to date with the latest releases
of software from Microsoft. You never need be concerned that
you will be left behind with Evolve.
