Application Builder is a completely browser-based platform for developers and business analysts who prefer to create solutions from scratch or customize existing applications. Using simple drag-and-drop techniques, users can build robust, industry and business-specific enterprise applications in a matter of days with no coding. Application Builder also includes a Web Services wizard for building easy point-and-click Web services integrations to other applications.
Building Applications
Using AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript And XML) power and intuitive interface design, Application Builder is more than you would expect from an application development environment - any application development environment, not just a browser-based solution. AJAX technology allows for drag-and-drop features and the performance of a desktop application, and Application Builder's intuitive design makes it easy and fun to use.
Application Builder takes advantage of the software-as-a-service (SaaS) paradigm, but the power of Application Builder is the ease which you can create your own customized applications.
No Coding
Just drag and drop fields and functions onto a grid, right in your browser. The richness and responsiveness of Application Builder, combined with its intuitive, easy-to-use interface lets you put your knowledge of the needs of your business to immediate use. Create simple applications in an hour, complex applications in days.
Enterprise Class: Testing, Deployment, and Versioning
Self-service customization should not mean that you lose control of how applications are built and deployed. Nsite is the only solution that combines complete flexibility in building and customizing applications with a robust application management framework that ensures changes are maintained and deployed in a controlled way.
Web Services Wizard for Painless Integration
Our Quote and Channel Management applications include pre-established Web services integration with CRM applications such as Salesforce and Siebel CRM OnDemand. Users need only log on to their respective Salesforce or Siebel CRM OnDemand account, and the integration works instantly. Changes and new integration points can be established in minutes using the Web Services Wizard.
If you are a developer or a consulting and/or business solution company and are interested in generating new sources of revenue by delivering added value to your customers by extending existing applications, you should talk to us. We can provide the on-demand application platform you are looking for.
