The DataNet Platform – Contracts Are Assets

 

Contract management is serious business. No matter what you’re managing – leased and owned property or equipment – contracts are tangible assets with real value. DataNet solutions help you maximize the return on those assets, and minimize any related risk and expense, even before the contract is signed. The DataNet platform supports the most flexible, secure, comprehensive and easy-to-use suite of web tools available anywhere. Regardless of what department you’re in or the value of your portfolio, the DataNet platform makes managing contracts seriously easy. 

Intuitive

DataNet’s Information architects, specially trained in the flow of contract management, designed the DataNet suite of tools to be highly intuitive to even a casual user. Contract information is clearly organized, data groups are logically linked, and each screen enables quick navigation to other critical areas of the system.

Rapid Deployment
Deploying DataNet is fast since there’s very little user training required, and ongoing support is a snap for the same reason.

Flexible
The DataNet platform is flexible in more ways than one. First, it’s web-based and can be delivered via software-as-a-service (SaaS), or run and configured in house by your IT staff. Second, it’s highly configurable. You buy only what you need because adding modules is as easy as turning them on – they were designed to work seamlessly together. That means that as you grow, we grow with you, be it adding more users, more data or both. In addition, we offer flexible hosting solutions, payment arrangements and upgrade paths. And since DataNet is web-based, you have the added convenience of anytime / anywhere access to support users in different time zones and remote locations.

Secure
With DataNet you can rest easy that your contracts and assets are secure. The DataNet platform is designed to meet or surpass the most stringent, industry-accepted security standards so your data will not be at risk. What’s more, you can control who has access to what – setting individual-level permissions from the security dashboard.
