Overview
Rich Internet Application (RIA) development is found throughout
the Salesboom system and is primarily used for time saving features.
Salesboom is leading the Web 2.0 front for CRM & ERP by continuously
adding AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) components that
allow for real time interaction with the server, without the need
for a page refresh. Comet features allow the client (browser)
to be notified from the server based on any event, thus reducing
the need to poll the server continuously for the client to recognize
that an event has occurred. Comet also reduces the wait time from
event to user notification as events are pushed to the client
from the server as they occur.
The combination of AJAX and Comet, among other technologies allows
Salesboom CRM to act more like a desktop application than other
browser-based CRM applications. This results in a more user-friendly,
time saving CRM with higher adoption rates.

functions that still plague other on-demand CRMs.
