Download and Installation

 General Installation Notes
Basics
  • Installation procedures for all our desktop/laptop programs are similar, except where otherwise stipulated
  • Business Kit, Business Kit and A-Z Planner are being released and distributed under two different versions: single-user and multi-user versions.
1. Single-user - stand-alone desktop application with single-file database  to be used by one user on one computer. Mostly for personal needs.

2. Multiple-user -  application will be installed on different computers (workstations), ALL users will access a common database via the local area network. Mostly for business needs.
Multi-user version may use single-file database (MS Access) or MS SQL Server with the database located on the Server. Applications on the client  (users) workplaces will connect to and share a common database via Josytal Database Applications SharePoint.

Also note that the two versions are incompatible, because they use different database structures and approaches to accessing and processing data. If you have single-user version installed, you can not later on jump or upgrade to multi-user version or vice versa. They are two separate products and must be treated as such. Once you have multi-user version installed, more and more users/workstations can be added later on in future to access a common  database through the local area network (LAN).

 Installation Instructions
Installation procedures for both Single-User and Multi-User (Business Kit NT) versions are basically the same, except that for multi-user version you will need to install additional support software (Josytal Database Applications SharePoint) in order to access the database, whereas for single-user version you do not need such.
  • Using your file manager, open the folder where you have downloaded the installation file.
  • If the file is a zip package, uncompress it to a temporary folder and launch the setup file
  • If the file is a setup executable, launch the install file (click on the setup.exe icon)
  • Follow the installation instructions. The installation wizard will guide you through the installation process.
By default Business Kit will be installed in your computer default programs folder, which is normally C:\Program Files\

The installer will automatically create the necessary folder for Business Kit under default directory. Of course, before or during installation, you will be prompted to confirm installation into the default or choose any other directory on your computer. For example, C:\My Programs. Browse to choose the necessary folder if you do not want to install Business Kit under default directory.

In many cases, rebooting after installation is not necessary. However, the installer may update some Windows system components, which will require you to reboot at the end of the installation. In addition, if you are installing on Windows 95/98 or Windows Me, you may wish to reboot to have your PATH environment updated. All files replaced during installation are copied and saved into backup folder on your computer.

Note:
If the downloaded installation file is corrupted you should delete it from your hard drive and try to download it again. If you are still not able to install downloaded product please contact us and will assist as soon as possible.


How to Uninstall
To uninstall A-Z Contacts Manager from your computer, use one of the following methods:
I)
  • From Windows desktop, choose Start/Settings/Control Panel
  • Double-click on the Add/Remove Programs icon. A new dialog box opens showing a list of all installed applications.
  • Select Business Kit from the list
  • Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon
  • Follow the instructions.
II)
  • Open the folder where Business Kit was installed. If you have installed A-Z Contacts Manager in programs default directory, then it should be located in C:\Program Files\Business Kit
  • Double click the uninstall.exe (unwise.exe) icon
  • Follow the instructions.


Special Notes:
Installation procedures for both Single-User and Multi-User (Business Kit NT) versions are basically the same, except that for multi-user version you will need to install additional support software (Josytal Database Applications SharePoint) in order to access the database, whereas for single-user version you do not need such.

Unlike the single-user version, you can not immediately start working with Multi-User version (Business Kit NT), because database is not included in the installation package nor installed during installation. Rather, you need first to download, install and configure Josytal Database Applications SharePoint with the database on a server computer. Failure to do this will always result in access violation error or/and socket error #10061, Connection refused.
This are critical errrors, therefore you must exit the program immediately without further attempts. Click the Exit button to quit.
Try running A-Z Contacts Manager NT again only after you have duly installed Josytal Database Applications SharePoint as described in the application's documentation.

Multi-factored database security model. What is it?
According to recent Forrester study, 80 percent of data security breaches involve insiders, employees or those with internal access to an organization, putting information at risk. The big challenge for companies today  is to strike the right balance between providing workers with appropriate access and protecting sensitive information as much as possible.

Traditionally, database users are assigned a database administrator (DBA) role or granted multiple system privileges. Meaning, once a user has gained access to the database s/he can manipulate (read, write, delete, export and print out) records without any further restrictions. From information security point of view and research studies, this is very, very risky. And you must be aware that this is the approach most of our competitors use!

To help ensure the safety, integrity and privacy of corporate information, Multi-User versions of our software use comprehensive, multi-factored database security approach. This approach is built on the defence-in-depth principle, which introduces multiple mechanisms to augment the traditional user and role security model. Simply put,  restrictions and boundaries are set up so that even employees with database access privileges MAY NOT freely use, alter, export or print out sensitive information from the database.

How it works

1. Roles and Privileges boundaries. Administrator may assign different combinations of privileges to different users on different remote computers/workstations for manipulating records stored in the database after gaining access. For example:
    User #1 - Read/Write/Delete/Print/Export
    User #2 - Read/Write/Print
    User #3 - Read/Print
    User #4 - Read only
    User #5 - Read/Delete
    User #6 - Read/Write
2. Records isolation. Administrator may specify rules such that users will have access to and can manipulate only the records they have added to the database. For example, a user's tasks and schedules or his private correspondence.

Multi-factored database security model is powered by our unique, specially built Josytal Database Applications SharePoint
that serves as a single database point of entry (server) and will handle as many as 1000 workstations/computers accessing the database through the local network. After gaining access to the database, Josytal Database Applications SharePoint will monitor and enforce user's roles and privileges granted to him/her by the administrator.
