High-Performance Design

Organizations can now deploy calendaring and scheduling across their corporate Intranets and enterprise networks. CyberScheduler provides proven thin-client Web technology built on a real-time scheduling engine to bring effective Intranet scheduling to any size organization--from workgroups to global enterprises.

Users enjoy full scheduling functionality through their Internet browsers, such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. CyberScheduler can also be used in conjunction with multi-platform Synchronize(TM) client software for Windows and Motif.


High-Productivity Features

Workgroup features include the ability to schedule meetings, distribute agendas and memos, assign and track tasks, and send out reminders...in short, everything you need to increase productivity and communication throughout your enterprise. CyberScheduler can connect thousands of local and remote users throughout your organization. Multiple time zone support permits schedules and tasks to be transparently and instantly managed within the same building, the same city, across the country, or around the world. CyberScheduler makes it easy to access your schedule and project notes wherever you go.

CyberScheduler Protects Your Current IS Investment

  • Runs on any Web server. Unlike other Intranet scheduling applications, CyberScheduler supports any commercially available HTTP server such as Apache or Netscape Enterprise Server, preserving your existing infrastructure investment.
  • Flexible cross-platform support. You choose how your calendar is accessed on the desktop--either through your Internet browser with CyberScheduler or natively with Synchronize Windows or UNIX clients.
  • Low desktop overhead. CyberScheduler uses minimal RAM and CPU enabling both NC and PC access. And because the database is stored on the Synchronize server, the native Synchronize clients require minimal disk space.

  • login.html, a login screen through which users will access their calendars.

  • the Synchronize Web agent.
  • a startup Script to facilitate the Web agent's execution.
