 CNP continually finds ways to leverage the best technical options to solve your problem. We have the expertise to integrate technologies to provide you with the best value from evolving web innovations and to achieve a stable secure and extendable technical infrastructure. In todays marketplace there are no shortages of technology solutions and vendors. Proprietary solutions require that vendors retain ownership thus leaving you vulnerable if they either go out of business or want to raise the cost to deliver it. We look for solutions that are supported by the open source development community and we integrate and package them for the greatest return on your investment.
 The synergy of the open source approach gives you value, greater control and faster access to innovation. Software that is made available to the general public with relaxed or non-existent intellectual property restrictions - open source - allows users to create user-generated software content through incremental individual or collaborative effort. The benefit of open source development is that it leverages and motivates talented individuals and inspires some of the most creative ideas. Ideas are transformed though collaborative and sometimes competitive but cooperative processes into powerful innovations. The term "cooperation" as coined by Michael Whitehead of the Long Reach Corporation, makers of the Info At Hand CRBM software, describes a process of "give a little and get a lot". Many of the business applications and technology innovations would be cost prohibitive for any individual or organization to integrate or develop. When everyone builds on each others ideas in a free development community, there is tremendous potential. Small business and entrepreneurs can now use these technologies; they can afford to take, for example, a specific Joomla component, modify or extend it to solve their particular business need, and then return the benefits, in the form of an improved or new component, free of charge back to the community. This practice offers everyone a greater return on investment in both time and capital. The open source development community has significantly grown over the past 5 years and matured in stability and market confidence. Since its inception less than 2 years ago the Joomla CMS (Content Management System) developer community has been one of the better organized and most energized groups in the industry. See: http://www.opensourcematters.org/ for more information about the Joomla organization that supports the vibrant developer community. Joomla is just one example. Other open source projects like SugarCRM ( www.sugarcrm.com ) have fueled successful commercial projects such as SugarCRM Enterprise and InfoAtHand ( www.infoathand.com ) Customer Relationship Management (CRM)software.
 Our mission at CNP Integrations is to help bring together the right technology solutions to match your business problems and needs. Our experience tells us that integrating new technologies into an organization involves many types of people, all with different needs and approaches to it's use. Depending on your role within the organization you may have completely different concerns and interests:
- Marketing wants to track campaign results and trends
-
Sales wants to build better relationships and manage contacts related to earning potential
-
Production wants to improve workflow efficiency and increase productivity
-
Management wants to forecast, maintain quality control and see cost avoidance and return on investment.
We understand how important it is to have manageable web based solutions that are easy for user and managers to adapt to and embrace. One of the big challenges of the "wild west" environment of the internet and open source - which is fueled by a global marketplace and outsourcing - is bridging the gaps between people and technology. We have aligned ourselves with stable compatible application infrastructures and build bridges between them in ways that give you superior functionality and ease of use.
