I have to develop a real estate marketing CRM software for my client - where the application is installed on desktop but can also be accessed from web.
2 reasons why they want the application to run from desktop :
- So that it can work with/without internet connection
- They don't want their complete data to be online
They want to access few of the data like property listing & inquiries (managed from desktop application) from their website through secure login & password.
The data that is entered in desktop application should be automatically synchronized with the website application. I was wondering if there is a way to develop this kind of software using PHP & MySQL. If yes, it will be great if anyone can provide me the referral link.Else please suggest, which language should I use.
The data that is entered in desktop application should be automatically synchronized with the website application.
If it's offline then the "automatic synchronization" needs to have some window or times that it can occur, also if it's a 100% offline desktop application, how do you plan to handle the scenario where someone has no internet access ever? Also how do you plan to deal with the merging of changes from web and desktop which conflict during that synchronization? This is a complex problem and it sounds like you need to do a lot more study. Also there's no clear question here.no internet access ever
they are effectively not using the same program as everyone else.
