ARANEI
Aranei is a business process information management system. It is specifically designed to facilitate an existing business process by serving information, instead of forcing a client to redesign a process to serve a system. Aranei is built on open-source components and open web standards, so your data is always under your control both now and in the future.
Aranei is a web-based relational-database-driven system which has been in development and use for the past decade. Its precise goal is replacing the spreadsheet or legacy client-server applications but achieving this replacement without altering the process or the information structure. This improves the overall reliability and accountability of the data migration and operational use of the system.
Business value promises
Speed of implementation through a standardized process, from project start to initial import within 4 weeks
Predictable costs through modular components
Data and application functionality under the client’s own control
