The
Appraisal Smart System operates on Corporate Intranets or
over the Internet as a hosted ASP application (Software-as-a-Service).
For our SaaS, hosted client sites, we use dedicated servers
at enterprise-class data centres at two different locations:
1.
USA: Codero (WEBSITE)
Serving
our clients in the Americas, Europe and Africa.

Codero owns and operates two state-of-the-art data
centers in San Diego, CA and Phoenix, AZ. It has brand-name,
industry-leading technology and superior network redundancy.

by multiple 150kVA UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) systems
that provide additional protection from disturbances on
the power grid. If utility power fails, operations are seamlessly
switched to an onsite Caterpillar diesel generator that
provides enough run time to operate the entire facility
for seven days.
