Designing computer software is a lot like constructing a house.   An architect can select only top quality construction materials; they can engineer the floor plan down to the last detail; they can check and recheck their blue prints; and in general put the necessary time and expertise into the product so that you get the absolute best house possible.  One which will serve you trouble-free for years to come.  Or, they can use lower quality materials, less planning, and in general deliver something that may look nice but isn't as robust as it otherwise could be.

When our developers were planning the design for DXbase, we faced the same kinds of decisions.  We were careful to use industry standard programming techniques.   We chose one of the most reliable and robust databases on the market.  We took into account the fact that you will be running other software on your machine and thus DXbase had to share computer memory and other hardware in a non intrusive manner.  In short, we planned the design of DXbase to the highest possible standards.  When you look at the DXbase screens, you may not realize all that goes on behind the scenes.   You may not know, for example, that we try to validate anything that gets placed into your database even if you try to enter incorrect data.  You may not know that when you install DXbase, we protect the process to insure that we don't overwrite any existing files and shared .DLLs unless ours is a later version.  You may not know that our user interface was designed to be ergonomically sound and consistent with other high calibur commercial software applications.

We thought you might like to know that we were careful to consider the industry accepted standards of Microsoft Certification Requirements.  Why does this matter?   Well, it means that you can be comfortable that when you install DXbase, the process is not going to harm your system by overwriting newer files that might exist on your system.  It means that when Microsoft changes and otherwise updates the Windows operating systems, that DXbase will still perform.  It means that if you already know how to use other applications which meet Microsoft Certification Requirements, you'll easily recognize how to navigate the DXbase screens too.

In a phrase, "It means that we put a tremendous amount of thought and planning into DXbase which you might not see, but isn't it nice to know that it's there."   There are many imitators, but none give you the quality and professionalism that DXbase provides.  At Scientific Solutions, our developers are experts who do programming everyday for a living.  They are in tune with today's technology.   They know the in's and out's of "doing it right".  And, they know what it takes to develop software that will perform trouble free.  We deliver software for the amateur radio hobby, but we're not amateur programmers.  See for yourself what professional software can do for you.
