Got a database?
Use Visual DB to quickly build data entry forms, sheets, and reports
Developing and maintaining internal applications to enter and update records in a database is expensive. Now you can significantly lower costs by using Visual DB instead of developing custom applications.
Visual DB is a productivity application, not a developer tool. As such, you don't need to understand SQL or any other programming language to use Visual DB. You build forms using Visual DB's drag-and-drop interface and AI assistance.
Rather than requiring you to use an RDBMS that is built into Visual DB, it allows you to use your own. Relational databases often act as integration hubs, with multiple business applications and tools accessing and updating the same data. By using your own database you ensure that the database can be used with multiple applications beyond just Visual DB.
Users in your company don't all need the same level of access. Visual DB lets you grant some users in your company permission to design forms and sheets, while allowing other users to only enter and update data.
You can build data entry forms using a drag & drop interface. You can rearrange fields, add data validation and change input types. You can even add logic to hide or disable fields. All without writing any code!
Thanks to AI assistance, you can lay out even complex forms in just a few minutes.

As a business grows, managing large volumes of data in Excel becomes cumbersome and inefficient. Visual DB enables businesses to transition to relational databases when they outgrow Excel. With its spreadsheet-like interface, Visual DB Sheets allows users to interact with data as they would in Excel, while securely storing that data in a robust relational database.

Traditional reporting tools process data on the server and download summarized data to the browser for visualization. Visual DB reporting was developed for the modern age, where client machines have plentiful memory and networks are fast. Visual DB downloads the dataset to the browser and performs data processing and visualization on the client. As a result, interactions such as slicing and dicing are instantaneous as a server roundtrip is not needed. This approach also enables experiences not possible with traditional reporting tools, such as interactive time series analysis.
