Online Campus Automation Software

Enhanced Campus Automation Software (ECAS)

An Institute Management Software for automation of all types of Educational Institutes. Select Modules can be implemented so that software price is minimum.

ECAS is available in 2 versions

• Standalone PC/LAN Version: Offline Modules for working on a closed network.
• Online (Browser) Version: Modules which run on the Server-Client structure and operate in a closed network or over the internet and can also be connected to the website.

A Server-Client structure based Online Automation System running on a Web Browser accessible over the internet meets all these requirements and provides a platform to leap into the future. The system has many advantages over a few limitations as compared to a Standalone/Network based systems.

Standalone (PC/LAN) Version is available only for purchase, while Online (Browser) Version has 2 Modes of implementation (Purchase, ISP rental & Full rental).

Since this is a very versatile Software which can cater to various types of Institutes like School, College, University and Coaching Classes, hence it is client-end customisable to suit the needs of a specific institute.

The login account you will get can be used for both the below given logins. This will give you a fair idea of the flexibility of the software.

2 Implementation Options for Online Version of ECAS

OPTION 1 > Rental Plan (Most Recommended): This is the most cost efficient means to make use of all the features of the software at negligible price of Rs. 10/- per candidate/year and try it out before you make any investment.

Requirements of Rental Option: User simply needs a normal internet connection. No other requirements.

Advantages of Rental Option:

• No need for investment into server & other infrastructure.
• No botheration of maintaining technical infrastructure.
• Start working on the very first day.
• Can operate for unlimited branches, unlimited candidates.
• Students, parents and faculty members can equally participate.
• User can start working from anywhere using his password, based on his permissions .
• Freedom from technical tasks of installing, maintaining and backup of software and data. Backup and administration is responsibility of Addmen.
• Updates & features are reflected immediately as they are developed without bothering you.
• No unauthorised access to data as data is on secure distant servers. Only owner of the institute has the access to data.
• Safety of data from forced investigation (As the data is not present at your work location).
• Previous years data can be accessed from Backup server if required.

Limitation of Rental Option: Since the system runs from a distant source like a website, so it cannot operate in absence of internet.

OPTION 2 > Client can purchase and install selected modules of the Online version of ECAS and run from their own Server.

Requirements of in-house Installation Option :

• Starting level server (Rs. 50000/- approx.) with UPS
• Windows Server 2008 license (more than Rs. 20000/- approx.)
• SQL Server license (more than Rs. 20000/- approx.)
• Wired/wifi LAN if required to run on network
• Server Administrator (salary)
• Minimum 2 MBPS internet connection with Static IP (Rs. 3000/- per month)

Advantages of Purchase-Install & Run option :

• Good for large group of institutes who have several schools/colleges or several branches because they already have server, administrator and software licenses and hi-speed internet connections. So they do not have to bear any extra cost.
• The data remains at the institute
• There is no problem of internet disconnection.

Limitations of Purchase-Install & Run Option : High initial cost because of too many system requirements. Above mentioned infrastructure is the most elementary requirement which works well for limited number of users and/or branches. But if the load on system increases like every student given login and participates for Online Test or Online Result, then the above infrastructure seems limited and better arrangement is required which is obviously costlier.

Implementation Option for Standalone PC / LAN Version of ECAS

Client can purchase selected modules of the Standalone PC/LAN version of ECAS and install on their own PCs or Laptops.

Requirements of Standalone PC/LAN Version: User must have a PC and a wired/wifi LAN if required to run on network.

Advantages of Standalone PC/LAN Version: Good for personal operation where the institute administration is single handed. Also suitable for individuals who do not want to keep data on server because of security hitch.

Limitation of Standalone PC/LAN Version: This version has a limited operation scope and cannot be linked to website for real time update and access by student and parents. Also the user must know basic computer maintenance and must be able to take backup of the system and installation.
