ODB Admin Tool policy updated

mark — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 17:13:22 +0000

The ODB Admin Tool is a software module for applications based on the Omnis Studio development kit. It provides a tidy user experience for those using the built-in Omnis database technology in a multi-user setting. The project is open source, but development is privately managed.

In the past we asked developers to pay US$300 if they deployed it. Over time it became clear that the requirement wasn’t adding value, so we have dropped that policy. We now encourage developers to find ways to contribute regardless of how you use it. This may be new code, a bug fix or two, documentation improvement, or even a donation of money to offset the server expenses.

Significant contributors include Alan Schmidt of Bottom Line Software, and Michael Mantowski of ClientTrax. Alan drove the initial development, and Michael recently added support for Windows platform.

Omnis developers are welcome to join the project. Please submit a request using our contact us page.

Value Solution with Omnis for Mobile Apps

We’ve been working on our personal iOS apps and Android projects. It’s clear that Mobile is here.

Mobile Apps are a Huge Opportunity and Headache. Lots of devices, lots of kinds of devices, lots of databases and interfaces. For a small company needing a unique custom app-we think Omnis Studio can offer a value solution. It’s a fast way to make simple mobile apps that function on all kinds of devices and on the three desktop platforms: Linux, OSX, and Windows. Further, Omnis reads just about every kind of database.

Bigger companies are hitting home runs using mobile apps for all kinds of selling, marketing, employee and asset management.Ê Two quotes from InformationWeek ‘s Plug into the Cloud

Next year will see an increase in IT budgets… The mobile enterprise is real.

We think smaller companies are going to need this kinds of apps to maintain a competive edge.
