3rd Party Hardware and Network Support
It is very important that there be a good working relationship between WaudWare and your hardware and network support supplier. One of the most frustrating things you could experience is finger pointing between suppliers. If you have a supplier that you are currently happy dealing with, we will do our utmost to work with them.
Many of our customers use System Lifeline or Muller Systems for their hardware and networking needs. We would be pleased to recommend both of these companies as well as the other suppliers listed below.
- C.I.M. Solutions 905.458.5090
- Forvan Technology Services 519.539.0705
- Muller Systems 800.668.6954

3rd Party Software We Use and Recommend
Confluence – https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence
Confluence is a collaboration software program developed and published by Australian software company Atlassian. The WaudWare team loves being able to instantly update our documentation. We use it for PICS Help so that both our customers and our support team can read about how things work in PICS. We also use it for internal documentation, processes, and all sorts of other information tracking. It is awesome!
WinRAR – https://www.rarlab.com/
WinRAR is a trialware file archiver utility for Windows. It can create and view archives in RAR or ZIP file formats, and unpack numerous archive file formats. At WaudWare, we know the RAR Files produced are smaller than Zip files, and it has many features, which we find fast and handy.
Microsoft 365 – https://www.microsoft.com/en/microsoft-365
Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) is a cloud-powered subscription service from
Microsoft that includes premium desktop, web, and mobile versions of Office apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook). It features 1 TB of OneDrive cloud storage, advanced security (Defender), and, in some plans, Microsoft Copilot AI assistance, allowing for seamless, updated, and collaborative work across multiple devices.
