IT Professional

Easy to Use, Easy to Manage

As an IT Professional you will probably be interested to know about the CABS technical requirements and its likely support requirements. Of course, you may also want to know how it can improve your life when you need to schedule a meeting of your own, be that with internal colleagues or third parties from outside your organisation.  If the latter is the case please visit the Employees section of this website.

CABS is a hybrid solution built on a central SQL Server, preferably a dedicated machine running SQL 2017 (or later versions) on Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019.

It is accessed through:
  • The CABS Console (Application Client) via a Client PC running Windows 10 or 11 with 2 -4 GB of RAM (operating system driven) or via a virtual desktop application (e.g. Citrix)
  • CABS UX+ – using any main-stream modern browser (e.g. Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Firefox) connecting via a Web Server running IIS7 or higher
  • CABS MS Outlook Plug-in via User Profile linked to Active Directory
  • A growing number of CABS Specialist User Progressive Web Apps via Apple or Android devices connecting via a Web Server running IIS7 or higher
  • Built-in Crystal Reports or, optionally, via a report writing application of your choice using the CABS Data Dictionary
CABS is also capable of being run on other operating systems (e.g. IOS).  If this is important to you, please get in touch and we’ll happily discuss your requirements.

CABS can be implemented as a single sign-on application linked to Active Directory or oAuth 2.0 if required, and features its own security, system administrator functionality, user profiles, and configurable roles & permissions.

As far as support is concerned, CABS is incredibly stable with most of the few support issues arising from unilateral changes in the technical environment (i.e. implemented without reference to the Business Careware technical support team) used to run CABS, e.g. changes in end user PC, relocation of web servers, upgrades to operating systems.

All versions of CABS are supported by end user documentation and v7 comes with web based on-line help.

We imagine you will probably still have a host of unanswered questions, if so, pick up the phone to call us or send us an email and we’ll do all we can to get you the answers you require.
