OakStand Equipment Reservation System

Hosting & Client Requirements

CLIENT REQUIREMENTS
HOSTING REQUIREMENTS

Browser Compatibility

The primary program is designed to work with PC's using Internet Explorer Version 5.0 or higher. 

We DO write our scripts to be compatible with Netscape, Firefox, and the Macintosh browsers (Safari, IE, Netscape), but due to differences in these browsers, there are some features in the PC version that will not be available and the screen display will differ slightly from the screen shots on this website. Therefore, we offer a Mac version which is recommended for people who are not using a PC with the Internet Explorer browser.

Both versions, however, use the same database, so an organization with both PC and Mac users can easily use this program.


ACCESSING THE RESERVATION SYSTEM

Hosted at OakStand:        

The URL to the PC Version will be something like: 

 www.oakstand.com/NYCable/calendar.asp

The URL to the Mac Version will be something like: 

 www.oakstand.com/NYCable1/calendar.asp

Stand-Alone Version - hosted on your server:  

The URL to the PC Version will be something like:

www.NYCable.com/OERS_PC/calendar.asp

The URL to the MAC Version will be something like:

www.NYCable.com/OERS_Mac/calendar.asp

 

 

This program is designed to run on any Microsoft Windows hosting platform that processes ASP scripts, such as Windows NT server, Windows 2000 server, and Windows 2003 server. It has NOT been tested on a UNIX server with ChiliSoft ASP, but it may work with the exception of the email capability. There are no server side components to install.

Database Requirements

This script contains a Microsoft Access 2000 Database that uses a DSN-LESS connection. This database is used by both the PC and the Mac versions.


OakStand Hosting

We recommend that OakStand host your Reservation system, and you would simply link to it from your web site, Intranet, or directly via your browser.

By hosting at OakStand, you can be assured of receiving all of the latest updates to the program, friendly and complete technical support, and confidence that everythings works as promised.

When you host your Reservation System at OakStand, we provide the following services to insure the system meets your needs:

  • Links to your website: we will provide links, or develop the appropriate "framed pages" so that the Reservation System is fully-integrated with your existing web site or Intranet.
  • Customize the Header and Footer with your website logo, color scheme, and any navigation links you wish to have.
  • Customize the site "vocabulary". Do you call your customers "producers" or "customers"? Are Equipment categories called "categories" or "types" or something else? Whatever, we can modify the "language" used in the program.
  • Customized Reports. We provide several standardized reports, but with our hosting service, offer an additional report according to your needs.

Net, if you host your Reservation System at OakStand, we become partners with you to insure the system meets your needs now and in the future.

 

 

Stand-Alone Program: Hosting on your server

Our Reservation System is also available as a stand-alone program, which you may purchase and install on your own server.

With this option, you will be entitled to minor "point" upgrades in the software at no cost, but major "version" upgrades will require an additional payment.

Support via email is provided at no cost.

Alternatively, we can install and customize the software for you on your own server for an additional charge.
