Everyone has a certain way of doing things. Sometimes the methods we adopt, albeit unintentional, make our lives more difficult. We get into patterns of doing something a given way just because it "needs to get done" or worse, because "that's the way it's always been done before." Even though they're cumbersome burdens, we call these tasks necessary evils and allow the abuse to continue.
One of the very reasons GrandView was developed was to eliminate many "necessary evils" in the early days of RoviSys, such as mountains of spreadsheets used to keep track of sales and project data. Even though we've streamlined our process and simplified our tasks greatly, we realize that our process doesn't exactly work for everyone. Some companies may need additional timesheet information or require additional import tools to get custom data into GrandView; and of course they'll need a new page to be able to view that custom data as well. Others may want quick access to a specific feature, such as Expenses, from every project instead of being limited to just a top-level Expenses tab.
So how do we allow customers to simplify their process without changing it for everyone? Easily - with a new architecture we refer to as GrandView Customizations. Customizations allow us to implement features that are specific to a single customer. We can create a custom import, copy features to multiple locations, add custom data to existing pages, or replace an existing feature with something completely different! We can even add external web pages in case a company decides they need access to a web search engine or another useful Internet tool from within GrandView.
