Light3 Advances; Capture Web Timekeeping Evolves; Fall 2011 Promotion and Light2 Annual License.
Light3, our successor to
Light2,
delivers enhanced functionality and DCAA
compliant electronic timekeeping in Light3
Capture™
(formerly named "Web Publishing"). A new
database engine and server software provides
users with all the functionality of Light2 -
and a good deal more - while delivering
improved performance and expanded
accessibility options. What has been easy to
administer and maintain now becomes easier
still. And with our new software delivery
options, "plug and play" takes on new
meaning.
Light2 is
now offered in an aggressively priced annually
renewable single-user package that can
optionally include Light3 Capture™
Web Timekeeping. Start-ups and smaller
government contractors can now "get it
done"...the right way...from the beginning. In
active use across the United States since
1998, Light2 is a field-proven workhorse.
Contact us for details.
The Light family of
software has continued to evolve. New remote
transaction entry, data access and communications
features will continue to be released as an
integral part of Light3 Capture™.
Check back for updates on this breakthrough
application!
New Delivery Options
Did someone say that you needed a $5K server to run our software? It wasn't us. A price tag of less than $1,000 is more of what we have in mind. While your own computers can certainly work, we now offer users some powerful and affordable options.Our software can be "served" by a modest - yet mighty - group of affordable computers. For example, we can ship our Light™ software to you preloaded and pre-configured on Apple, Inc.'s newest Mac mini with Lion Server. Equipped with a quad core Intel Core i7 processor running at 2.0Ghz with 4GB of super-fast memory, dual 500GB 7200-rpm SATA hard disk drives, 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet (RJ-45) and 802.11n wireless networking, your Light™ data will be "served" over your LAN and the Internet at blazing speed. And then there are the matters of automatic file backups, remote access and the Mac's legendary ease of use. You'll also enjoy the sense of freedom that operating in a virtually virus-free environment brings.
As a true
cross-platform solution, users can access Light
from both PC's and Mac's - without regard to
whether the "server" is PC or Mac hardware. And
there are, of course, other options as well.
Dell's Inspiron 580 series and Apple's iMac are
also offered - both being very capable machines.

details.


Updated Web Site
Our Web site has been updated to include both new content and new ways of viewing our content. The CCAS Web site been singularly strong in providing valuable, free, information to its users and any who need to know more about accounting for contracts issued by the Federal government. We hope that the updates to our site will more clearly present this information, as well as information about our Light™ software.
This page utilizes a new technology that allows users to view different content without navigating to another page, or pages. Simply click on an icon in the shaded area (the "Carousel") and that item's content will be presented in the area below (this area, that is). If more content is available than is immediately visible, clicking on the arrow buttons will allow you to scroll through the available content.
Another new technology employed (an "Accordion") presents information that is accessed by clicking on a Heading ("Keep it SIMPLE!", in the example below). When clicked, the heading expands and its content is displayed. Clicking on the heading again closes the heading, as does clicking on another heading. In short, considerable information is communicated on one page in a clean, uncluttered way.
Our new Web site is best viewed with Firefox or Safari on both PC and Mac platforms and Internet Explorer.
