Epiware enables organizations to easily share information and effectively collaborate on documents in a browser-based environment. Epiware enables the creation of virtual teams by providing an online workspace for users to collaborate and exchange information in a secure, protected setting. It is intuitive and easy to use, which allows users to concentrate on what they do best rather than on trying to master an application. Epiware utilizes Asynchronous JavaScript And XML (AJAX) to increase the applications interactivity, speed, and usability. This helps make Epiware nearly as responsive as software that resides on a users computer. The technique helps speed up computer operations by cutting down on the need to request fresh Web pages from the server. Epiware can request smaller chunks of data to update the page that is already on the browser using DHTML.
