Client-Server Database Manager

The MemSys® client-server upgrade is required for all new installations if the shared database is to be located on a server accessed via a local area network.  Client-server technology eliminates workstation file handling and reindexing.  Because only the file server is allowed to open and update the databases, this technology eliminates the chance that a workstation malfunction could cause harm to any of the shared databases.  The client-server upgrade uses Actian Zen / Pervasive SQL (Version 10 or higher) running on the file server and workstations.  If MemSys tables will be accessed across a wide area network, we recommend adding the GoGlobal Thin Client module.

Note: MemSys® and PervasiveSQL® can be installed on more workstations than the license calls for, but only the licensed number of users may run MemSys® at the same time.

Minimum Hardware Requirements:

  • Processor – Class i5 or i7 at 2.5GHz (or equivalent)
  • Memory – 4 GB
  • Display: 17″ recommended, with a resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher
  • Network: 100Bps (Class 5) or 1Gbps network interface

Minimum Software Requirements:

  • Operating System:
    • Windows 10 Professional
    • Windows 11 Professional

Note: These specifications refer to Intel “Pentium®” processors only to establish the general class of performance which is desired.  Any Intel-Compatible processor, such as an AMD processor, is acceptable

    Not being a technical person I find it to be exhilarating as well as challenging. The team at Memsys has been very kind and professional when I need assistance no matter what the question. They take the time to mentor me through the software. Because of the Memsys team, I am getting better at navigating the software and getting the data I need. It has been a game changer for our development efforts.

    I have been working in the MemSys CRM for 15 years. I began my career at WVTF processing daily check deposits and by the end of my first day I was able to easily enter all the donor data, pledge, and payment data and produce a daily register report to match the bank records. That’s says a lot for a someone who had never worked in a CRM before. Over the years our process changed from manual entry to lock box service and finally to remote check scanner deposits.

    Memsys does exactly what I need, so I can spend less time on data entry and more time connecting with donors. It gives me all the tools I need for successful fundraising. As a bonus, the guys who write the code are the same guys answering your support questions! Their expertise and quick responses are irreplaceable. I love Memsys, for how flexible and responsive it is!
