VrHIPs v0.5 Beta - webnetics - 25-03-08
Virtual Web Designs are near completion of our, latest software called VrHIPS. We are currently in Beta testing and hopeful we will be releasing this software very soon.
VrHIPS is an Online Booking System for Home Information Packs. The software has been designed in PHP5 and uses a MySQL 5 as the database. This software can be installed into any website design new or existing. We have also designed a complete CMS, which is also part of this software. This will allow you to update your existing website without changing your existing website design This will save you time and money as you will not need to pay someone else to update or add existing pages to your website.
