Since the company's foundation, ARCAD Software
has always focused on the performance and functional richness of
its products, continually attentive to overall quality and customer
satisfaction. Today we are seeing the payback of this approach:
the ARCAD product range has the highest level of integration and
widest functional scope on the market.
ARCAD-Open Repository : the heart of the ARCAD technology...
The ARCAD suites are built around a single central repository, or application knowledge base. For either externally developed or in-house software, the repository gives a uniform view of the entire legacy application and its inter-dependencies, regardless of the technology used (System i, Windows, UNIX, Linux). Using the integrated audit functions of ARCAD-Open Repository, application restructuring projects become simple and efficient. Many customers have reduced the volume of code in maintenance by 50%.
ARCAD-Skipper : the structured organization of application change...
The ARCAD-Skipper suite fits in the Application Lifecycle
Management (ALM) market covering Software Configuration Management methodologies,
version control, deployment and test. Right from user request handling
up to the transfer of new versions to production, ARCAD-Skipper secures
a general framework for all change processes.
ARCAD-Observer : Capitalizing on functional and technical knowledge
The ARCAD-Observer suite is a concrete solution for maintaining
and transferring the knowledge of existing systems. Whether the context
is application maintenance or modernization, the basic needs are the
same: to find information within complex application architectures and
have ready access to technical documentation that is guaranteed relevant
and up-to-date.
ARCAD-Qualifier : Automation of the test process
ARCAD-Qualifier is a wide-reaching software testing suite.
It covers the extraction of coherent production data for testing purposes,
test coverage measurement, and management of regression test scenarios
to ensure automatic replay after an application change. It is unique
in being specifically built for the needs of System i users.
ARCAD-Customer : Your service quality architect
The ARCAD-Customer Help-Desk is a latest generation technical
support management suite, offering more services with the same simplicity
of use. ARCAD-Customer takes end-user relations to a new level and extends
management and control over the technical support activity.
AN INTEGRATED PRODUCT LINE...
The defining characteristic of our solution package is its integrated approach. The product line is built around a common core: the ARCAD-Open Repository, the heart of our technology. It is the result of over 13 years of experience in applications analysis.
A MODULAR OFFER...
Each solution can be acquired separately, as needed, then added to complement your changing needs. Your system develops at the same pace as your organization.
AN OPEN OFFER...
Thanks to their open architecture, the ARCAD products can be either customized or used in standard format. This makes them a safe choice for the evolving requirements of a wide range of customers.
STRENGTHS...
A multi-technology offering : Our R&D team pride themselves on their versatility, with experts in native development, client/server and Web,
An integrated offer : The ARCAD suites have been developed by the same team. This has favored natural linkages between the various suites, resulting in productivity features that are unique on the market,
An integrate-able offer: Thanks to its open architecture, the ARCAD products can be very easily integrated into your other development tools, such as CASE tools in particular.
The Open Repository core is also equipped with an internal macro-language (Macro-Maker) that allows the user to audit and restructure the existing ARCAD modules as well as build customized solutions in just days. The products are distributed with standard “macro-commands” which the users can adapt for their own needs.
