No programming experience is required to build fully-functional, professional-grade applications. But if you are a programmer then dbFramework provides a multitude of extensibility points that let you write C#, Visual Basic, scripting, HTML, Silverlight, or Flash to completely customize and extend your application.

A general-purpose development system, dbFramework can create a wide variety of web-applications - that is, collaborative applications that are accessed using a web-browser. From simple web-sites to loan-administration systems, customer relationship management to document management systems. dbFramework excels at creating data-oriented web applications. And don't all websites use data?

dbFramework gives you the freedom to create applications without having to worry about the system-specifics. Using a web-interface, dbFramework may well be the first completely web-based development system. You can even use an Apple iPad or your phone to develop your applications!

Best of all, dbFramework Personal Edition is completely free! You only need to purchase dbFramework Workgroup when you want to share your application with others.

dbFramework provides a lot of functionality out of the box. Some of the features include:

  • User-management (logins and security etc.)
  • User-interface (data entry, form design, views, navigation, clipboard etc.)
  • Data linking (relationships between records translate into links on the screen automatically)
  • Database management (interfaces with Microsoft SQL Server transparently: you never have to perform any database administration)
  • Concurrency and data-integrity (provides full transaction support)
  • Deployment/upgrades (Takes care of installing and applying database modifications transparently whenever an upgrade is provided)
  • Scalability (Built to support a multitude of concurrent users)
  • Reporting (Quickly create reports without the need for any design work or experience in complex reporting systems)
  • And capabilities to quickly add a help system, multiple language support, Visual Studio integration and much, much more…
  • Applications created with dbFramework Workgroup can easily be deployed to your web host, running Microsoft IIS.

All of these features are automatically available just by clicking ‘Publish’. And where an application created using dbFramework needs additional functionality, custom views can be generated to allow more freedom over user-interface innovations.

Here are a few ideas of applications that can be created using dbFramework:

  • Customer relationship management
  • Project and task management
  • Accounting systems
  • Knowledge Base
  • Asset management
  • Content management (blogs etc.)
  • Forums and discussion boards
