DIRECTIONS
BANANAcom is a new technology company. We have identified that business management and transaction processing systems now need to be Internet/Intranet based, and accordingly we have undertaken the total re-design and re-development of all software solutions. To make it easy for traditional clients we also offer comprehensive porting solutions to our new technology platforms.

Effective systems must offer full client and supplier access via the Internet, and also provide a broad range of real-time transactions processing with eftpos capabilities.

At BANANAcom we develop all systems using advanced open system architecture, design and development platforms and methodologies. We will continue to develop with such open and readily supportable platforms.
