Hope's data fields are fixed and as such are always present onscreen. However, every label, tooltip, placeholder, dialog text, button caption, menu text etc can be changed for you, by us. We discuss this with you and make any necessary changes during system setup / configuration.
Most fields can be changed to be either optional or mandatory along with any associated, changeable data validation rules. We discuss these points with you and manage them on your behalf.
Yes, we add your choosen options duing system setup and then manage these lists on your behalf.
Hope is mono lingual (English by default), meaning each of your users would recieve the same language / text no matter what their browser settings / preferences. However, as the onscreen text is changeable, this could be in what ever latin based (left-to-right script direction) language you prefer. Regardless of language, you would supply us with the text replacements that you would like to be applied.
Yes and No, at present Hope is not brandable; in future we plan to give you the ability to have your own colors and logos on the application. The reports that are generated can have branding applied such as your logo's and colours if requested (logo to be suppplied).
Hope is not and will not be all things to all people, despite planned future features. The guided demonstration / Q & A session thats available, should allow you to determine the suitability of Hope. Afer all of the above, if Hope doesn't tick all the boxes, then all that we could do, is to discuss maintaining and altering a seperate version of Hope, to align it more with you business requirments / if cost effective to do so.
Hope uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to encrypt infomation from your browser to our web server and back. Your data including any uploaded files are stored encrypted inside a Microsoft SQL Server Database using Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) which means your data is stored encrypted at rest including the managed backups of that data.
Hope has the notion of roles, permissions and actions, each role and / or role members can have any number of permissions associated with them. Permissions are linked to onscreen actions such as edit client details, upload case files, view employee details, add a new case enquiry for example. In order to simplify things, we provide predefined roles, that you can use to add users to. We manage / assign the underlying permissions attached to the roles and / or individual users based on your requirments. There is a system report provided in Hope, that you can use at any time to view each users full set of permissions / permitted actions.
You purchase a number of user licenses (initially by choosing a package) which allows you, via the application, to associate staff to licences, and then licences to login details, Hope records entries such as case actions by user so that each user can manage their entries. You are free to change these user licence associations at will via the application, which allows you to share licenses between partime staff or to give access to any temporary staff whilst full time staff members are on leave, for example.
No, you pay a yearly price with everything included. This includes the initial system setup / configuration, ongoing system management / support / database management, a number of user licences, training sessions and reports created to your requirements (as advertised in the pricing plans). Additional costs would only be necessary if your required additional items such as onsite training sessions, extra licences, extra reports or need the ability to download / access unencrypted copies of your Microsoft SQL Database (other than an end of term copy).
As Hope is an online application you will need a stable internet connection and a computer with a modern web browser (a version no more than about 5 years old). Our provided user training / ongoing user assistance is via Skype, so you would need at least one computer that is adequate for Microsoft Skype usage that staff members could use, otherwise you would need to purchase on-site training.

Hope is the evolution of a desktop based case management system, that was built free of charge for a local charity by Omtio's founder. We wanted to help more organisations bridge the I.T gap, but without some sort of commercial product, this was not feasable. Hope is our way, despite its associated costs of trying to help other such organisations, giving what we can where possible.
