“IdeaBlade builds the kind of code we'd write if we knew everything there
was to know about smart client development. ”
|
|
|
Les Pinter, Microsoft MVP
|
|
“After one look at IdeaBlade’s solution, developers will be amazed with how
quickly the technology allows them to create a traditional line-of-business application
with Silverlight, leveraging all the features of the Silverlight platform”
|
|
|
Tim Heuer, Community Program Manager for Silverlight Microsoft
|
|
“Smart client systems definitely need a core framework that supplements the
.NET libraries. Otherwise, a team can waste several months creating very generic
functionality instead of working on specific business problems.”
|
|
|
Billy Hollis, Microsoft MVP
|
|
“Before we had DevForce we had to think about writing code to fetch and save
the data; now we can focus specifically on our client’s business problem,
not the data mechanism. This project has been a great success!”

John Hamilton, Development Manager, Casco
|
|
“IdeaBlade is a well-integrated tool set that shows great promise for business
developer productivity.”
|
|
|
Rocky Lhotka, Microsoft Regional Director, MVP
|
|
“The ROI from DevForce has been significant. Overall, we estimate that DevForce
has saved us many man months of development time and increased developer efficiency
dramatically.”
|
|
|
Dean Tessman, Manager of Development, MediSolution
|
“With DevForce as the catalyst…developers will be more productive, resulting
in reduced development costs
and accelerated time to market.”
|
|
|
Prashant Sridharan, Product Manager, Microsoft Visual C# .NET team
|
|
“With DevForce, we were able to take a seven-person development team -- responsible
for building and maintaining our own custom infrastructure -- and refocus them on
solving our key business problems instead.”
|
|
|
Todd Powell, Vice President of Engineering, IMPAC
|
|
“We see DevForce as THE source for “best practices” when it comes
to .NET development of database apps. The tool itself requires you to design your
app using these best practices, and the code that you produce is “best practice”
code without the developer consciously thinking about doing it that way."
