"Here are just a few things it does on our web site and (for) our business: All in all, We've been very happy (with) the ease of use and the reliability... We have integrated it into our business practices. I've tried using other technologies but each time I find it easier and quicker to use (your software)... I think it is a great product! I can truly say it has helped us become an INC 500 company!!!" Paul DeSmet Director of Marketing ACT dba LINE-X http://www.line-x.com I thought I'd let you know that we had the training yesterday for the forms and the admins (all 82 of them) just LOVE it! They just went on and on. Poor things - they'd been doing the forms on a typewriter! Anyway, the VP of Academic Affairs came to the training for a few minutes and told me it was "impressive". Thanks again for all your help! I just wanted to EMail you to say thanks for all of your help. We are now using WebBase and Experforms to facilitate nationwide online electronic enrollment for Medical Providers and Practices. Approximately 150 forms are now being populated from our MySQL database. We are particularly impressed with the WebBase scripting versatility and its integration with Experforms. The product was easy to install and configure, and has been very stable. I have used many other web servers, but WebBase is by far the best on a Windows based operating system. You and your organization have provided us with fantastic support and been very generous with your time. We very much appreciate it. Centered around versatility, ease of use and industry standards like PDF and ODBC databases, WebBase ExperForms has helped me really harness the power of the Internet. Internally, marketing uses the online forms for rapid market surveying, sales uses it for customer tracking, human resources uses it to track employees and resumes. Importantly, our company uses WebBase to make money. WebBase acts as a mortar for many organizations that have data stored in disparate locations. Since WebBase web-enables databases quickly, the uses surface almost daily. If your company wants to find itself on the cutting edge without paying cutting edge prices I would strongly recommend WebBase. WebBase boldly claims to make porting databases to the Internet simpler, and they guarantee that with top-notch tech support. The WebBase team really works to take on your problems and insure you with success. "The WebBase ExperForms wizard eliminates the need for a custom CGI program, and establishes the links between the fields on the form and fields in a database table without any programming whatsoever... The developer simply points the ExperForms wizard to the OmniForm form that is to be published and the WebBase code to process the data from the POST is generated, and a Microsoft Access database to store the data is created... A powerful feature is the ability to send e-mail when a record is posted. A customer fills out a form on the Internet and submits it. The server processes the data from the POST, and can e-mail the responsible person with a notification that an application has been submitted via the Internet. In fact, the data from the application can be sent as well... WebBase does not suffer from the performance problems that CGI programs do... The WebBase WebWizard allows even non-programmers to generate web database applications. The ExperForms wizard is absolutely the quickest and easiest...." As central Minnesota's Premier web design firm, we utilize web software from a variety of sources and companies from all over the United States and Canada. When we inquired via your web site about WebBase, we were contacted almost immediately by Peter Thorsen, who was more than happy to answer all the technical questions that we had. He also let us know about ExperForms and its capabilities. It is quite an impressive program and a serious time saver. After purchasing, we couldn't be more pleased with the results. Your technical support staff has been more than willing to help us with EVERY question after the sale. Thank you for hiring intelligent, patient, professionals.
We have successfully used the ExperForms software to develop "form / document" libraries. We can conveniently complete online forms and submit them in order to save the information. In an ever-demanding automotive industry there are many documents that require completion and need to be readily retrievable. We have developed inventory systems, forms approvals work flows and much more. Easy to install, easy to use, reliable and economical. For the 3 years we've been using it, it has been almost completely trouble free!
I put up most all of our forms, numbering somewhere around a hundred of them, and used the WBML scripting to develop some (IMHO) really sophisticated workflows, integrated with enterprize data systems including Peoplesoft, Oracle and others. There have been a number of upgrades since we purchased it, and they have all been free! Some small bugs here and there, which tech support promptly quashed (they're great!). Since I had no background in forms automation, workflow or internet/intranet applications there was a learning curve, but their tools and their generous support helped me through. I can't say enough good about this. The server licensing makes ExperForms the most economical solution out there. No limit to forms or users. I don't know how they do it! 4.5 out of 5 stars! (nobody's perfect ;) All of the forms except the staff directories are workflow forms of some kind with email routing based on user input criteria (check boxes marked off, or text fields filled in). They all start at point A, and notifiy everyone when the final destination is reached. Some forms include options for prefilling fields, one way or another, integrating other databases via ODBC. Our applications include: Purchase Order Request Form - high security and calculation fields, Computer Training Schedule, File Access Request Form, New Computer User Request, New Telephone Request Form, Museum Store Transfer Form - includes calculation fields, Visitor Parking Request Form, Operations and Facilities Work Order, Plaza Cafe Food Service Request Form, Special Events Work Order - includes calculation fields, Maintenance and Facilities Daily Work Order, Staff Directories (approx 50 based on the Phone Roster), Phone Roster, Update the Phone Roster Form and many more.
With remarkably little effort the site was available in less than a week and has been in use since. With this success behind us it is easy to envision many other uses for Experforms. We have experimented with using it to collect and maintain information from forms and questionnaires...I have never experienced greater dedication in providing quick, accurate answers to our questions, either by phone or email. And this, I assure you, is just as important as having an excellent product. The WebBase server is running behind a firewall so you cant see it -
unfortunately.
Its on a Dual-processor (2X650) and it runs FAST. Uses about .01% of
processing power when its getting about 100
hits per minute.. I bet it would be just as fast on a 486 ... IT WORKS. GREAT. WONDERFUL. YEEEHHAAA. Anyway, thank you. Too often after you buy something these days, you're on your own. I really appreciate the great service. Again, thanks. Your service is excellent.
I owe you one, that is exactly what I wanted to do....... You saved me a lot of time. Thanks again.... I will recommend your company to anyone, for product and service.
.... I appreciate the work involved in something like this and I hope that others do as well. I'm happy. My users are happy. Thanks!
The software installed flawlessly and performed as advertised. It is refreshing to find an application in the marketplace today that is as well designed as WebBase ExperForms. Thank you for you help. | ||
