Light3 Advances and Capture Web Timekeeping Evolves; (belated) 25th Anniversary Promotions
Light3 and our DCAA
compliant electronic timekeeping application
Light3 Capture™
(formerly named "Web Publishing") are
well-established in the field. A new database
engine and server software provides users with
all the functionality of our legacy product,
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.
We've been so busy with new product development
that we completely missed that 2012 was our 25th
anniversary! But we'll make up for that now:
Light3 with Capture licenses purchased through
June 30, 2013 will receive a 15% discount.
Licenses purchased through October 31, 2013 will
receive a 10% discount…Many
thanks to our users across the county and the
globe who have supported us for…a quarter of a
century.
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 OS X Server. Equipped with a quad-core Intel Core i7 processor running at 2.3 Ghz with 4GB of super-fast memory, dual 1TB 5400-rpm 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.
PC options are, of course, available as well.

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.
