Bridge the gap between the spreadsheet and the database
Spreadsheet applications are excellent tools for ad hoc data crunching. You fire up a new spreadsheet,
key or paste in your data and then sort, filter and formulate your way to data analysis enlightenment.
Things can turn ugly, however, as those ad hoc spreadsheets put down roots and grow into de facto applications
that would be better implemented as databases. Using the form builder, users can quickly turn spreadsheet information
into database information.
Ease of use of a spreadsheet and flexibility of a database
Unfortunately, the structured nature of databases, which requires a lot of planning ahead, tends to
mesh poorly with the open-ended mindset of the typical spreadsheet user, resulting in deepening roots
for those overloaded spreadsheets. The Form Builder combines the structured data entry, distribution and
access benefits of databases without surrendering the open-ended usage traits that spreadsheet dabblers prize.
Share data easily within the organization without IT help
Form Builder's easy form creation and form relationship capabilities allow departmental users to
quickly put together a light database. This can be acheived without seeking programming help from the IT folks.
Create applications in minutes
Building a form, collecting data, analyzing the information, generating reports, searching for specific data within
it and getting alerts based on data entered, is really building a small application, but without the pains.
