At last it's here: industrial-strength, easy-to-use, web application development software for solution-focused developers and experienced computer users.

Aware IM™ allows you to build complex, reliable and powerful web-based database applications in a fraction of conventional development times with no programming, scripts, or HTML experience. Forget PHP and ASP: no programming, database, web or user interface skills are required. With Aware IM™ you get reliable, scalable solutions in a fraction of the time.

The process of building a database takes time and money and the result is often limited by budget constraints. Aware IM™ lets you create database applications based on business rules, not scripts. More a business productivity tool than a development environment, Aware IM™ applications are fully-functional, industrial-strength, relational databases.

The secret is in the way Aware IM™ is designed. Much of the functionality is automatically generated. You simply define the details of the data you want to capture (text, image, number, etc.) and specify relationships to other data. Add queries, define the reports you want, and in less time than it would normally take to write a functional specification you could have a working copy of your database. Unlike most other database tools, Aware IM™ was designed and developed as a web-based application. Whether used on an intranet or over the Internet, users only need a standard web browser to access the data.

An enormous amount of functionality is already built-in. You might want to e-mail personalized documents to clients (birthdays, account renewals), or have the application automatically e-mail reminders to a staff member when inventory drops below a certain level. Would you like to accept customer orders by e-mail or accept credit card payments? Do staff members need to access data from home? Would you like to allow clients to see their order details over the Internet?

Using Aware IM™ only requires a basic understanding of logic and database structure. No web technology skills, no specialist software skills, and no database design skills are required to produce a quality application. Users with any or all of these skills will of course be able to produce solutions that are far more comprehensive.

Developers love Aware IM™ because it allows them to do so much so quickly. But any non-developer with a structured and logical mindset can generate a quality solution in a matter of hours.
