Cumulus Web Client is installed on a Web application server and communicates via TCP/IP with your Cumulus Server. The Web application server can be operated on the same machine on which the Cumulus Server is installed, or on another remote machine accessible by a TCP/IP connection. As with all Web server solutions, this configuration requires an appropriate Internet connection if you want your external visitors to have 24-hour access.
The Cumulus Web Client provides the data according to the user access rights configured via the user management of your Cumulus edition – your data is secure at all times.
