A database application is essentially a spreadsheet on steroids. In fact, you can build one by importing your spreadsheet data, using the Application Construction Wizard. Or you can use the Wizard to specify the objects (database tables) you need, the fields in those objects, and the relationships among them.
Once you do, you get a running, mobile-enabled application with Forms for entering and viewing data, and tabular Views of object data. You also get the ability to run Reports and generate Charts. And you get much more:
- Add Users and define their Roles
- Organize users into Teams
- Determine which data is visible and how Forms are organized
- Automate procedures using Processes and Rules
- Define Email Templates you can use to send messages that contain record data
- Create Document Templates that contain record data using Word, HTML, or PowerPoint
Best of all, every feature of the application can be extensively customized to suit your purposes.
