Hi,

No. Usually good products either come with some bundled database, or ask
you to point to some existing database when you start the installation .
Is this a web-based or thick-client based software? (You mentioned
installing on "all our computers"). Mature products also provide some
facility to back-up the data into xml format or some specific format using
GUI tool. Any way, once you set up the system, it is very critical that
you have a back and recovery mechanism in place. If you install this on a
desktop and one day it refuses to boot, all your data will be gone.
