MAGOBA

Under what circumstances would you recommend a user to use a web client other than a windows client?

Hi MAGOBA

The only advantage of the Web Client over the Windows Client i can think of is: You do not need to install it.

Although the Web Client grew pretty strong, there are still a view limitations, which, however, IT department or even the end user might even consider an advantage.

Thank you for your response. however, with windows client i meant the Role Tailored Client (RTC) but not the windows authentication method.

What advantages does a web client provide over a windows client (RTC)?

when the users does not have access to the system..
the web client is for people who have particular set of transactions fixed,that is their roles...but it is not that user-friendly

the end of the windows-Client will be the end of the time that our Company will use NAV. every Version they try to get rid of Features and then the bring them back as "new Features" are they kidding us?
