roy.goffer — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 18:00:00 GMT

"...The customer is a so called umbrella organization with many independent companies. This organization has a CRM solution in which customer data is maintained from a centralized database.

"...Visual WebGui was chosen because it fulfills all the major requirements. Many web development tools where looked at, but none of the tools had the flexibility, development simplicity and the ease of maintenance that Visual WebGui offers. The Visual WebGui platform also offers a smooth transition with no learning curve for Windows application developers since it uses the same methodologies."
