BlueFinity
International
, a leading provider of cutting-edge software development
tools and consultancy services to the MultiValue database and Microsoft
.NET
developer communities, today announced a special offer for
Raining Data's PDP.NET customers to migrate to BlueFinity's
mv.NET
.
Some of the incentives qualifying PDP.NET customers will be
eligible to receive from BlueFinity
include discounts on licenses in addition to the volume
discounts in the price book, beneficial payment terms and a
variety of consultancy services.
This limited time offer comes in response to requests from the
market as evidenced by comments on various industry message
boards. Peter Hughes, Director at ALMA Services, comments:
"We made the move to mv.NET from PDP.NET nearly two years ago
because of its superior functionality, especially in the area of
MultiValue item updating and database management. We were also
impressed with the mv.NET roadmap that was being described at the
time and subsequently met with the introduction of .NET Framework
2 and Reporting Services. With no support for .NET
Framework 2
and Visual Studio 2005
in Raining Data's PDP.NET nearly 18 months after BlueFinity
released support in mv.NET, we are certain we made the right
move."
BlueFinity
, a member of the Mpower1
Group of Companies, has become a powerhouse player in the
MultiValue industry, carving out a solid presence in the
marketplace. The company's published roadmap, available on
the corporate website, includes plans for the development
of both additional features for their existing product range and
the introduction of brand-new, innovative products.
Updates to the product and/or documentation occur on a monthly
basis as mv.NET
is aggressively enhanced based on feedback from the
field. Future enhancements to mv.NET including support for
.NET
Framework 3.0
, extended AJAX integration, Vista and 64-bit support
reinforce the company's dedication to the product.
"We considered Raining Data's product, but decided against it
because we felt their heart was not really into it," states
Sholom Hamada, Prudential Stainless & Alloys. "On the
other hand, BlueFinity is a smaller company, but seems to have
their heart in their product. The company is staking themselves
on .NET and mv.NET. They seem to have the personnel to develop
it. They also seem to be advancing it along as Microsoft advances
.NET itself. That's a good sign. We feel comfortable with their
vision."
Customers who migrate to BlueFinity's mv.NET
also do so for its unique technical capabilities.
Drexel Management Systems has many new installations and has
successfully migrated all of their original sites. "We had
successfully installed other connectivity solutions, but after
trying mv.NET, we have found it solid, fast, easy to install,
robust, and feature rich," says Drew Conboy, Drexel's
President. "The fact that it fits across multiple flavors
of MultiValue makes it the ideal solution. The latest release
supports Ajax which is a must have feature for future web
development. If anyone is looking for a way to bring open
system technologies to their MultiValue applications they should
look no further than to mv.NET from BlueFinity".
BlueFinity customers find it easy to integrate the technology
with their existing infrastructure. Jon Neutens, President
of Thede Ward Systems, migrated their .NET integration tool from
PDP.NET to mv.NET. "mv.NET was easy to install and use and
it ran as advertised. We now use mv.NET to run D3
subroutines and to read and write data for our proprietary
browser-based business intelligence and reporting tool," explains
Neutens. "In fact, we are so impressed with BlueFinity that
we have now implemented a universal D3 Data Object Web Service
and are incorporating other new web-based tools and applications,
augmenting our current offerings."
BlueFinity has developed superior expertise within their team
and prides itself on their strategic role of customer
service. The company routinely hears from industry leaders
that BlueFinity takes care of its customers, making a commitment
to work together as a team. Tony Gravagno of Nebula
Research & Development comments, "mv.NET support is
absolutely outstanding. It is personal, fast, and informative. If
I have issues or I need to escalate questions from my clients, we
always have an excellent rapport with BlueFinity and it always
leads to some sort of resolution as a fix, an enhancement, or a
documentation update. This is the sort of service that
people appreciate. I have confidence that they are
interested in building their business and they constantly
reinforce the belief that they want to do business with my
company and others."
