As Web technology opens up ever more possibilities, many companies are looking to harness the interactive approach of desktop applications in a Web environment.

The easier it is for customers visiting your Website to visualise, select, arrange and configure the items you sell, the easier it is to make the sale, and to gain the data necessary to quickly fulfill orders. From selling complete kitchens to manufacturing custom packaging for valuables - new technologies can help you win more customers on the Web, and process their orders more efficiently.

Quintic is perfectly positioned to help you find and develop the right solution. Our highly technical background includes the development of large-scale Computer Aided Design (CAD) systems, graphical data representation and analysis suites, and Web-based applications. Many of our developers have a mechanical engineering background, and we understand the manufacturing sector.

As new technologies emerge, we can quickly get up to speed and suggest the right solution for your project. Below is an overview of some of the technologies to consider.

Embedded Technologies

(JavaScript/HTML, Microsoft® Silverlight, Adobe® Flash, Java® Applets)

Embedded technologies are the right choice if you are looking for an application that runs directly in your Web Page and does not require your customers to download software.
