Browser-based editor
You do not have to download any software nor install any new program in order to work with onion.net. Instead, you just have to access the onion.net editor quite simply using one of the popular web browsers. Whether you prefer Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari or the Microsoft Internet Explorer does not matter: The onion.net editor delivers a fully functional and highly efficient user interface, that feels like using a "rich-client".
You can create as many users for each customer as you wish. Once you have successfully logged-on, the onion.net editor opens in a new window.
Three functions in one editor
The onion.net editor will then fulfil as many as three functions at one time:
- Information management
- User and group administration
- Structure of information architecture
Administrators, user administrators, developers (programmers) and editors therefore work in the same system! This has the advantage that the user feels at home immediately if he changes roles and assumes other tasks.
The user of one area can switch into the others via the three buttons situated next to one another in the bottom left-hand corner. In doing so, each user only of course sees the areas for which he has rights of access. This is important, as it means that each user can concentrate on the areas and objects which are important for his activity.
