Today marks the day that you became powerful

There was a time when developers didn't do systems administration, sys admins didn't do development, and the rest of us didn't do either.  That time is past.  Starting today, YOU can do it ALL, cloud master.

1. Rapid requirements gathering - Now anyone can gather requirements. With WorkXpress, you only need to ask five simple questions, one question for each type of WorkXpress building block (Items, Relationships, Fields, Layouts, Actions).  Items - What people, places or things do you want to track?  Relationships - How are those things related?  Fields - What information do you want to track about each of those things?  Layouts - What should the screens look like?  Actions - What do you want the computer to do for you automatically?   


2. Easy estimation - WorkXpress takes the guess work out of estimation, and makes you an expert estimator.  All WorkXpress applications are some combination of the five building blocks, so all requirements simply need to be translated into those blocks.  The time to build any block is well understood, and therefore you will produce accurate estimates every time.  


3. Skip the specification document - With WorkXpress, you can write a specification document, or, you can simply build the application. Typically, it takes about as much time to build a working draft of the application as it would to write the specification document.  More importantly, a working application is more easily understood by the users then a specification document, and this leads to better communication and happier users.  


4. D.I.Y. development - WorkXpress applications are built by both traditional software developers, but also by people without any formal software development experience.  If you have the aptitude for things like spreadsheets, than you can build great applications in WorkXpress.  You can even make web service calls and interact with 3rd party applications, all without programming knowledge!  


5. Versioning and testing - WorkXpress makes it easy to release versions of your application into a testing environment.  In fact, WorkXpress makes management of an entire application lifecycle simply a point-and-click exercise.  


6. Deployment - When you are ready to create a production environment, WorkXpress puts the power of the cloud at your fingertips.  Simply choose the infrastructure you wish to host on, including single and multi-tenant options, and then choose the version of the application you wish to install.  WorkXpress does all the rest for you!  


7. Simple systems administration - WorkXpress makes you a systems adminstrator.  Create servers, backup data, perform disaster recovery, add more RAM, processors or hard drive space, monitor for trouble, and, if all else fails, rebuild your systems.  Do all of this quickly in an intuitive, graphical point and click environment.  


8. Change request management - Someone wants something changed? No problem.  With WorkXpress you can manage your change process however suits you; make your changes rapidly and release to production, or save them up and do them all at once.  


9. Marketing and selling your software - If your goal is to produce cloud computing software for resale, your mastery of the WorkXpress cloud puts you in business.  Configure single or multi-tenant deployment options in the Cloud Management Portal, enable demo accounts, determine billing options and let the WorkXpress Store bring you customers.
