zeroCode enables tech-savvy businesspeople to leverage the power of the
Internet to create, build and deploy custom web applications.
Bangalore, India. 12th December 2006. PK4 Software Technologies today
released its DIYO business application builder, zeroCode. zeroCode is designed
to allow small and medium business (SMB) users and small workgroups in
enterprises to quickly and easily construct business applications online.
According to Forrester Research seventy-one percent of US SMBs use
custom-developed applications. SaaS confers cost advantages, ease of
implementation and management, accessibility to the latest technology at no
additional cost to the IT infrastructure, and the freedom for the SMBs to focus
on their core competencies.
zeroCode is an amazing framework for tech-savvy businesspeople to create, build
and deploy their own web-based applications. According to PK4, a basic working
web business application can be created with just five clicks. zeroCode uses a
visual, model-driven approach to enable business users and enterprise IT teams
to develop complex business applications, with zero coding. It is an application
generator that builds database-driven web applications and can rapidly create
visually stunning, feature-rich applications with database access and security.
zeroCode accelerates development by eliminating routine infrastructure
programming, giving users easy-to-customize and ready-to-deploy Web applications
in minutes.
Simple data-driven applications can be built in a matter of hours with zeroCode.
Complex transactional applications that access a variety of databases like DB2,
ORACLE, SQL Server, Postgre can be built in just days. zeroCode brings the
promise of the Do-it-yourself web to fruition. It empowers the people closest to
the business problem to deliver an application without being dependent on
programmers.
"A custom built application is always going to better match the customer's
requirement and exact business process compared to a packaged application. While
SMBs are short on resources, they still want to add layers of functionality and
flexibility to their business applications. Do-IT-Yourself business application
development using an externally- hosted service is a great choice for SMBs",
said PK4 CEO Kishore Mandyam. "zeroCode empowers business users and enterprise
IT teams to quickly develop complex business applications, with zero coding.
Over the last few years, several customers like FedEx, Transtar Metals, UTI Bank
and World Minerals have used zeroCode to quickly build and deploy web-based
business applications. With zeroCode in the SaaS model, we now bring that power
to SMBs worldwide".
zeroCode requires no downloads or installables and can be accessed using a
standard browser and Internet connection. Once it is pointed to an existing
database, zeroCode quickly builds a sophisticated database-connected
application. zeroCode generates the application’s user interface, including Web
pages, master-detail pages, menus, and search and navigation components. Once
the basic application is built, the application designer uses an intuitive
drag-and-drop visual environment to add custom business logic
PK4 offers a free evaluation of zeroCode. Designers can modify an existing
database or use their own database to evaluate zeroCode. They will have access
to support forums, online chat and discussion groups for trouble shooting.
