CNExT Enterprise

The Industrial Strength Solution to Network Performance Issues

CNExT Enterprise offers superior stability to network users, especially those working in large databases or across Wide Area Networks.

What is Enterprise?

• A CNExT database platform based on SQL Server
• Works with Microsoft SQL-Server, and with Microsoft Jet (a.k.a. Access) databases for maximum scalability. Compatibility with Oracle, Sybase, Pervasive, and other database systems is coming soon.

Advantages of Enterprise

• Maintains CNExT Registry look and feel — no abstractor retraining is needed
• Includes all the features of CNExT Registry
• Adds an additional level of data security
• Speeds performance on a WAN
• Improves data integrity and stability on highly-stressed networks

Who should use Enterprise?

• We consider CNExT Enterprise to be essential for databases with more than 20,000 cases, and strongly recommended for databases of more than 10,000 cases.

Basic system requirements

• CNExT Enterprise is designed to run on a Windows 2000+ domain over a TCP/IP network upon which at least one server, available to any CNExT users, hosts Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP4+ or better.
