Enigin Love Web Apps: The Apps we use

December 18th, 2009 posted by Enigin

Not only do Enigin build web applications to support our Distributors, I/we also use a number of third-party web apps to help us collaborate as a team. Here they are!

  • Basecamp - We use this simple project management application from developers 37Signals to collaborate on projects.
  • Tada List - Another 37s app to manage a simple task list
  • Beanstalk - A source-control (SVN) hosted solution to allow the Enigin developers to work together on our code base
  • Google Reader - I use this simple app to read all the latest industry news from the websites I subscribe to.
  • Campaign Monitor - This app is great for sending email campaigns. It’s very easy to use and has the ability to provide extensive reporting on the number of recipients opening your campaign
  • WordPress - We use WordPress to power our corporate and staff blogs
  • Google Apps - I personally use Google Apps for handling Email, Word Processing, Spreadsheets and online Calendar

Using online software has the following benefits:

  • Access for everyone - Your team can access your business software from any Internet-enabled computer in the world! Great for home-based teleworkers
  • Your Data is Safe - All your data is backed up on remote servers and the responsibility of the software providers
  • No Upgrading - All upgrades to your software are handled by the creators. So no more holding your breath when performing software updates!

The web is the perfect platform for business software applications. So, if your business is still relying on OS-based software, then it’s time to try something new! Enigin have!
