Bravo Security - Encryption - Platform - Windows - .Net - more...

Written for Technically minded reader:



For encrypting transmissions between the client and the server,
in production we use 128-bit SSL.  The Bravo client talks to the data
center servers over 128-bit SSL (https).  The client-facing DC servers are
a series of hardware load-balanced servers, each running web services under
IIS.  This allows for an N-tier architecture which provides both
scalability and fault-tolerance.  The backend web servers run WCF web
services behind a firewall that provide the business logic layer (stateless
business objects).  Behind his layer, the business object servers talk to
the database, which is a MS SQL-Server Enterprise 2008 R2 cluster.  For
disk level encryption in SQL server, we use AES-256 encryption (with a dynamic
key) for all customer sensitive information (Personally Identifiable
Information).  
Bravo is written in WPF, .Net 4.0, and C#.   We chose
the .Net framework because there are a large number of engineers that know this
technology and it is a mature platform, having been use now for more than 8
years.   We also like the platform’s maintainability, scalability,
and support of MS Windows operating systems.  Most Point-of-Sale systems
run on inexpensive MS windows PC’s.

There has been a lot of buzz about Bravo Pricing and yes it is only $49.00 per month.  I would like to explain in some detail our pricing format and the basis for what Bravo is trying to provide and accomplish.  First,  what are you paying for?

There are two areas of expertise Bravo brings to its customers.

1.  We are experts in Pawnbroking, Buy/Sell, and Online & In-Store Ecommerce.
2.  We are experts in Software & Service.  Developing pawnshop software for 30 years.

No one understands your needs better than our team!  Of course we would be happy to give you a list of our customers, but also, ask the employees of these companies that have used our products.  The everyday user love our system.  Our products speaks for itself.

Pricing Philosophy - We want small businesses to prevail.  In today's  business environment big business have so many advantages.  One of them being their IT resources.  Even in our Pawn Industry the publicly traded companies spend hundred's of millions of dollars on IT.  We want independent stores to have IT supremacy.  You will have the best.

PRIMA our legacy enterprise Pawn system is legendary and still out performs the IT resources of the Public companies.  Our Bravo tech team are the experienced developers of Bravo.

TODAY - technology has changed so that software through the Internet can distribute powerful software and services.  You have heard of Cloud computing and companies like Salesforce.com.  These are SaaS - Software as a Service.  Bravo is a Software as a Service.  In order to run Bravo in your stores in a traditional sense with all the software and hardware required would cost 2 million dollars plus a IT team with a price tag $500,000.00 per year.

Bravo is priced at $49.00 per store!  What is even more exciting is that Bravo is designed to increase your revenue, reduce your cost, and make your employees happy.  It enhances Pawnbrokers abilities in hundreds of ways.  You just have to put your hands on it to believe it.  I promise you will be excited!  Sign up for a live free demonstration on your PC.

HOW and WHY?

I love Pawnbroking.
I love Software Development.
I love Small Business.

I sold my company in 2004 and made more money than I ever expected.  In 1981 I got into the pawn business to change the industry, and I did.  My fortune was made in the Pawn business developing great software. 

I decided Jan 2, 2010 with my former colleague's Mike and Kelly that we wanted to create a version of PRIMA for single and multiple stores.  We put together a team that is currently 12 people in creating a product that will move the needle for our customers everyday.  Bravo has exceeded by expectations.

In Five years we believe that 5000 stores will be on our Store System.  Bravo will have improved dramatically with features that will enhance our customers revenues, reduce the cost to operate, and increase your employees morale.

If you are one of the first customers that join, take advantage of our introductory rate of $49.00 per month. Join now at www.bravorevolution.com
