Why we do not support other browsers

Our systems are optimized for Internet Explorer (IE). This is because:

• IE dominates the market for browsers in the business arena. Our software is primarily for businesses. Catering for 20% of the market (non-IE browsers) would not be worth the massive effort involved. There are facilities becoming available that will help our efforts in this regard in the future.
• The technologies, that we need are simply not available in other browsers. This is an issue of efficiency in our development environments. HTCs and XML data islands are very powerful tools that are not supported by other browsers.
• Up till Google released Gears, there was no other platform that allowed web interfaces on a PDA to store data locally.
• With Internet Explorer we can have the same interfaces in our desktop systems that we do on the web. And that is how we were able to develop such powerful systems - our clients have been using them in their desktop and servers applications for years.
