Generate a web app from your database without coding to manage, report, and act upon enterprise data. Upgrade existing systems and overcome software quirks and limitations.
I recently had the chance to review DatabaseAce REIGNN, a software that generates sophisticated and intuitive user interfaces based on the structure of external databases.
What impressed me the most was the product's ability to deliver advanced business intelligence, centralized data management and rapid application development capabilities for nearly any database. The first thing that REIGNN does when working with an external database is to map its schema, then write it to disk as a collection of XML files. This allows administrators to customize their XML 'maps' in a way that best suits their purposes.
REIGNN gives administrators total control over how (and if) data is validated, displayed, arranged and restricted. Meanwhile, users decide how best to filter their data through the use of an advanced searching mechanism that allows search queries to nest inside each other infinitely using boolean logic.
With the right data in place, users can determine how best to arrange and manipulate columns so as to obtain exactly the right information in exactly the right way. REIGNN's animated Flash charting tool brings data to life with a rich collection of visual effects, chart types and options. Use saved filters and angles to fine-tune each chart's underlying data. Dynamically build charts to meet your exact business requirements. Export any desired data to PDF, Excel, SQL or CSV.
Create time-saving 'mass-change' routines (called 'verticals') that turn daunting data entry tasks into simple push-button processes. Users can work with any number of databases simultaneously within a single session and can switch back and forth without losing their place.
Another impressive feature is the ability to create automated actions (called 'fulfillments') that can send personalized emails, run local scripts and executables, ping HTTP gateways and upload files in response to pre-determined trigger events within the interface (such as 'record inserted,' 'record deleted,' 'user logged in,' etc).
REIGNN is fully skinnable and is compatible with Oracle, MySQL Enterprise, SQLServer, PostgreSQL, Firebird and InterBase. Overall, I highly recommend DatabaseAce REIGNN for anyone who needs a powerful and highly customizable database management tool that's easy to use and produces sophisticated user interfaces.
