Best x-platform, client-server application development tool,
By A Customer
This review is from: 4th Dimension Developer 6.5 (CD-ROM)
This latest version of 4D really helps keep it up with the competition, but in terms of turning out applications for small and large numbers of users quickly, it's got to be one of the best tools on the market, especially in a mixed PC/Mac environment.Rather than being a RAD tool with a database engine bolted on, 4D is a completely integrated, database application development tool containing everything needed to create everything from single-user to large multi-user client-server systems. There's also an ODBC driver available for 4D server and 4D can act as a client to SQL and ODBC backends such as Oracle, MS SQL Server, Sybase, etc. The new webserver in 4D 6.5 now makes it far easier to produce intranet/internet applications than ever before, and it makes it far easier to let web designers do all the design work. The productivity increases with this latest version keep it well up with the competition, plus the engine speed improvements and additional internet features are an even bigger bonus. Add to that the interface improvements and loads of other new features and it's got to be the best value product ACI have ever released. 4D is a great tool for any sized application from single user to 150+ with the added benefit of having even more users connecting via the webserver, all in one box. It's even got a proper machine code compiler. This package has everything you need to get started with 4D development as it comes with the compiler, plus the most popular plug-ins from ACI. |
