ONEWARE Features

With all of the power of ONEWARE, you might expect it to be complex, have a long learning curve, take a long time to implement, or be expensive.  To the contrary, ONEWARE has focused its efforts on "Keeping it Easy" ... easy to learn, easy to operate, easy to buy and implement, and even easy to afford.

ONEWARE’s module-based packages are all you need to roll out a web-based solution today. User friendly, easy to configure, and complete with everything a successful operation demands, it’s the effortless way to enhance your capabilities.

Modules are the software units that ONEWARE has developed to support a specific business element.  Each module is an integrated component of the overall ONEWARE business architecture.  While a single module can be implemented by itself to meet a specific customer requirement, typically a number of them are implemented together to deliver a more elaborate customer solution (such as warehouse management).

Each module allows authorized users to generate both list and detail views of module information, using free-form and parametric searches.  Many of the views can be generated as reports (standard and ad hoc), and report data can be imported and exported in standard interchange formats.  Many modules have history and audit trail functionality.
