The FloSuite framework product is an enterprise application development suite built on the latest Microsoft technology and industry standards. It simplifies and speeds up initial software development processes and enables deployed applications to be quickly and easily evolved in line with changing business requirements.
Our unique approach allows FloSuite end-user solutions to be adapted without the significant drain on time and resource that is typically involved in making substantive changes to deployed applications.
Technology foundations
FloSuite’s comprehensive user-friendly toolset is built exclusively using Microsoft and industry-standard tools, such as C#, Microsoft Visio and Microsoft SQL Server.
Single, integrated Microsoft Visio-based application development environment
FloSuite's self-documenting application development module utilises Microsoft Visio as a single, integrated development environment. This reduces changes to underlying code to simple drag-and-drop operations.
