Clients Platforms
Clients no longer come in just one 'flavor'. The latest Version, Clients Prime Version 12, comes in two different Platforms: Clients Prime SQL/Client Server and the web-based Clients Prime ASP/SQL. These Platforms look and work the same for the user. However, the driving force behind each is different. The Platforms to Clients Prime Case Management Article will help you understand the differences and help you decide which Platform is best for your office.
