Highlights of WebMI include:

  • Cscape Configurability: Implement your OCS application remotely without any manual HTML development.
  • Cybsersecurity: IT compatible, high-level security algorithms ensure continued uptime at all times.
  • Level-Based, Object Security: From graphic objects to application commands – you control who can do what.

  • HTML5: Instantly deliver almost everything you want to accomplish online to your web browser.
  • Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG): Sharp, clear, and professional screens regardless of the device you use, any size.

“We are looking forward to effectively launching this new line of remote software solutions,” said Phil Horner, CEO Horner APG. “And WebMI is just the beginning. Throughout the coming year we’ll be releasing two additional products in this same line, building off the connectivity and simplicity of WebMI.”
