A business case for .NET
Microsoft .Net technologies offer a business wide
variety of advantages. .NET technologies help break
down the distinctions between the Internet and standalone
applications allowing businesses to collaborate,
thereby offering an unprecedented range of integrated
and customized solutions—solutions that enable
their customers to act on information any time, any
place and on any device.
Integration
Integration of diverse applications has long been
a challenge for most businesses. It can be expensive,
complex and very time consuming. Microsoft .Net helps
individual components between specific applications
to interact seamlessly. The .Net Framework allows
the business to easily integrate not only internal
applications, but also to access and integrate with
their partner systems. This flexibility would help
businesses to manage their data and act on it anywhere,
anyplace, and at anytime.
Rapid Development
Microsoft .NET and Visual Studio help developers
and deliver cutting edge applications much faster
than conventional development environments. These
applications are also easily scalable. This in turn
results in much lower project timelines and lower
cost resulting in substantial savings for the corporate
IT department.
New Opportunities
By using .NET connected applications and web services,
a business can expose their key business processes
as a service, enabling other companies to utilize
this service, thereby providing a new source of revenue.
