Rio features

Features
Single interface to learn A single system to send messages to users on any Paging Service and any Mobile Phone SMS Service – provided, of course, that you have appropriate accounts and the operator accepts direct input. Lower Total Cost of Ownership
Address Books Three types of Address Books are provided: User, Department and Corporate. Users
can read their own, their Department’s and the Corporate Address Book. Department
Managers can edit their Department’s Address Book. Etc.
Import / export  All address books can be exported to and imported from CSV files.
Groups Groups can be defined so that, for example, "sales" can be reached as a group.
Rotas If a Rota is sent a message, then the actual destination will depend on the time of
day and the day of the week. Great for reaching the right Support staff. 
Reply Requested A user can mark a message "Reply Requested". If the message is destined for a
pager it will be sent repeatedly until the recipient responds by sending an
"acknowledgement" message or a timeout is reached. In either case the sender will
be told whether or not the message has been acknowledged. No more "I must have
missed the message when I was indoors" – the message will get through! And the
logs will show when the message was sent and when it was acknowledged. 
Infolink Receiver To use "Reply Requested" a Receiver is connected to the Server so that reply
messages can be sent directly to the Server. This Receiver can also be used to
supply License Upgrades. In this case there is no need to enter, or remember, your
new License Key when you upgrade to support more users. 
Message Sent Alert Users can be informed when their message has been sent.
Logging Users can see a log of their messages. The System Manager has a full log of all
messages.
Max Character The maximum message length for each recipient is known and indicated when
entering a massage. The user knows when a message is full.
Message Split Messages that are too long to send as one message, will be automatically split and
sent as multiple messages.
Signature Each user can set an individual Signature and append it to all or any message they
send.
Drop Directory Files "dropped" into a shared directory will be automatically sent as if they had been
manually entered. This enables other applications to send messages to Users,
Groups or Rotas. The Drop File Format is given here.
Multiple Providers The system can be configured to support many Service Providers. 
Multiple Protocols Messages can be sent using TAP and/or SNPP which gives access to virtually all
Paging and Mobile Phone SMS providers. 
Multiple Routes  Each provider can have three routes defined. Connection over Dial-up, Leased Line
and TCP.IP (Internet) are fully supported. 
Multiple Networks Operates over TCP/IP and IPX/SPX networks. The client software will usually be
able to find the server and auto configure itself – provided the System Manager has
allowed the user access. 
Standard platforms Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows NT.
Security The System Manager can instantly enable and disable users and Service Providers.
Drop File access can be controlled with normal System access lists or passwords.
Extensive logging provides full audit.
Licensing Flexible licensing for various numbers of users.
Evaluation A single User, 30 day evaluation version can be downloaded from the website. To
upgrade just enter your new License Key.
