Increased Service & Revenue Potential For Card Service Bureaus

Asure ID Server is great for Card Service Bureaus in two ways. First, clients using Asure ID Connect, Asure ID Express™ or Asure ID Enterprise™ can be offered vital back up card printing services when they have increased card production requirements or their local printers are unavailable. Additionally, when clients are unable to justify the costs of an internal photo card production system, Service Bureaus can become the primary source for card issuance.

Minimum System Requirements

The Asure ID Server software can be broken into two component applications, Asure ID Server Services and Asure ID Server Manager. For this reason each component has its own minimum system requirement. The Asure ID Server Services component is the part of the software that does the actual ‘work’ of receiving, processing and storing incoming cards records, and as such needs to run on an Internet Server, with a unique Internet ‘IP Address’ assigned to it. The Asure ID Server Manager is the part of the software used to view, print, archive and otherwise manage the cards that have been received by the Server Services. It can be installed and run on the same computer as the Server Services component, or for ease of use (for example when the Server Services are run on a ‘back office’ server machine), it may be installed on any other computer with a direct network connection to the computer running the Server Services component. In addition, each component has unique minimum system requirements, which are listed in detail below:
