Who Can Build Applications?
Application Builder was built for users that have knowledge of how organizations work, but don't necessarily have software development skills. However, from initial feedback we have received, software developers appreciate the flexibility, speed and power of our application platform as well. Application Builder is meant for:
- The idea guy
Ideas are great, but there's usually quite a large and painful step from conception to execution. Not with Application Builder - if you can visualize the application, you can build it with drag-and-drop ease.
- The spreadsheet guru
They track everything in Excel, but others don't get the benefit of their labors. If you can use Excel, Application Builder is a breeze. Formula Builder, Lookup Builder, Web Services Builder, and Link Builder provide greater features without any coding.
- The manager or lead
You know what you need to get things done. How do you communicate, track, organize, and lead? If you use Lotus Notes, Microsoft Access, or even FileMaker, you can easily build applications that do more for you and your organization.
- The business analyst
Do you have to have the business analyst title to create solutions for your business? Whether you're an analyst, CEO, CFO, CIO, or just a perceptive employee with a creative solution, anytime you see a need and have an idea to create a solution, you are a business analyst. With Application Builder, you can create and customize an enterprise solution with ease.
- Software developers (IT departments and consultants)
If you want to be technical, we won't stop you. Our powerful event management component, called Action Builder, is a programming tool, but if you're not a programmer, don't let that scare you. Action Builder provides easy declarative means for identifying possible interface and platform events. Accessing fields, core platform objects and built-in functions are only a click away, practically writing the JavaScript for you. Who knew that a little JavaScript could be so powerful?
Our revolutionary approach puts the power to create solutions in the hands of the individuals in your company who best understand the problems that need to be addressed.
