What is RI?

RI is our optional Responsive Interface web application that provides the ability for those with just a web browser and internet connection on any sized screen device to access many of the same features as that of the desktop AyaNova interface.

 

RI is not a replacement for the AyaNova desktop user interface, RI is an optional interface.

 

Doesn't matter what the operating system of your device is, nor does it matter what screen size your device has - RI is responsive to your screen size and is accessed by the remote user using most any HTML5 compatible web browser on any operating system.

 

A RI license is required to use this optional add-on.  

Confirm your AyaNova database is licensed for RI by selecting Help -> License. If not licensed, and you would like to trial before purchase, contact us with your present licensing information.

And when ready,  purchase the optional RI license via our website.
