It allows multiple developers working on the same project to rapidly develop Windows client/server applications of any size or complexity. It also optimizes network usage for database access with its server-based high-level scripting language that accesses data on the server, as opposed to needing to transfer it to a PC using ODBC.
Cutting Development Time
Visual Speedware boasts a number of productivity-enhancing features. It offers a multi-user development environment and automates a significant portion of the development by allowing an entire Visual Basic client/server application to be created without needing to write a single line of VB code.
