			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes we prefer to have an icon on our desktop that we click and then our intranet opens. If this is the case then we suggest you <a title="Download Prizm" href="https://mozillalabs.com/prism/" target="_blank">download Prism</a></p>
<p>Prism is a very simple programme that makes a desktop program out of your Sesalos Intranet or Content Management System. The Unisite development team has also committed to making sure that Unisite systems are compatible with Prism.</p>
<p>Here is a quick step by step tutorial to setup Prism for Unisite:</p>
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong></p>
<p><a title="Download Prizm" href="https://mozillalabs.com/prism/" target="_blank">Download Prism from this website</a></p>
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong></p>
<p>Double click on the downloaded file and you should get a window that displays all the folder contents.</p>
<p>Click on the file named &#8220;prism.exe&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong></p>
<p>You will now have the menu shown below.<br />
<a href="http://blog.unisite.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Prizm-Settings.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-4 alignnone" title="Prizm-Settings" src="http://blog.unisite.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Prizm-Settings.png" alt="Prizm-Settings" width="300" height="440" /></a><br />
<em></em></p>
<p><em>URL:</em><br />
In the  URL section type the address of your Unisite Intranet. (If you are unsure of the address please contact your Unisite supplier).</p>
<p><em>Name:</em><br />
Type a name for your icon. IE: &#8220;Unisite Intranet&#8221;</p>
<p>Please make sure that all the tick boxes are selected, like in the example above.</p>
<p><strong>Step 4</strong></p>
<p>Click OK<br />
We hope this helps in making your Unisite experience more enjoyable.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-77" title="SaaS" src="http://blog.unisite.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/SaaS1-300x285.jpg" alt="SaaS" width="300" height="285" />The &#8216;Software as a Service&#8217; (SaaS) model allows Unisite to provide larger value to the client as we seek to improve our service offering.</p>
<p>SaaS means that Unisite is offered as a <strong>service </strong>to our clients rather than as a <strong>product.</strong> Software products have always been a bitter-sweet investment by consumers because they get great value once the product is purchased but the product is out-dated before the shopper even reaches the exit door. This is why software product companies choose to offer &#8216;ugrade purchases&#8217; to reward those customers who have bought previous versions of the software. Software service, on the other hand, offers much more to the client by taking on the upgrading and updating of software as part of the service. <em>Essentially allowing the client to have the latest version of the software at all times.</em></p>
<p><span id="more-73"></span>Internet software only needs a simple computer to run the software because the information processing happens onine. This means that you wont need to upgrade your computer hardware whenever the software is updated. Your information is also stored securely online &#8211; safe from any computer crashes.</p>
<p>The Unisite Web Based Business Software concept, supported by the SaaS model  has so much more to offer the client.</p>
<ol>
<li>All software features remotely accessible through the web/cloud.</li>
<li>SaaS primarily uses a &#8216;user&#8217; based pricing system which means that entry level costs can be very low for small and large businesses.</li>
<li>SaaS revenue streams to the client are therefore lower initially than traditional software license fees, but are also recurring, and therefore more predictable, much like website hosting fees.</li>
<li>Centralized feature updating, which removes the need for end-users to download patches and upgrades.</li>
<li>More feature requests from users since there is frequently no marginal cost for requesting new features.</li>
<li>Faster releases of new features since the entire community of users benefits from new functionality.</li>
<li>Offsite Data backup built into service offering.</li>
<li>SaaS software increases effeciency and productivity and replaces unnecessary human resource.</li>
</ol>
