Alliance Software's Role

American HomePatient asked Alliance Software to help expand its intranet and workflow reengineering effort. Alliance Software developed five applications for this project. Most recently, we completed a new custom reporting tool that was designed to replace an extensive set of reports originally developed using Crystal Reports. The new application was developed completely in Microsoft C#.NET, and as such eliminated AHOM's dependence on Crystal Reports. This was done at a cost that was 75% less than the licensing fees AHOM would have paid to extend the Crystal Reports-based solution throughout the enterprise.
