Alpha Anywhere Reviews

PROS: The ability to quickly develop applications is tremendous, The robust report development part has been very useful and allowed us to mimic reports that have been very beneficial for our clients. The integration of Alpha's Transform product into our applications has truly been monumental in our field data collection process. The ability to rapidly develop, modify and implement field forms is very efficient and easy to produce. Adding calculations into the forms customized for different clients is a big plus that allows their field personnel to receive instant feedback as the move through the data collection process. Staying current with technology is one key factor in our use of Alpha Software for our business, both internal and external.

CONS: While this may not be for many users, knowing how to navigate through certain parts of Alpha and how to use different features may take a few hours of research, studying videos and some trial and error. Although that is the way many things are done part of me wishes everything was more automated and as easy as a lot of the development in Alpha. But it does continue to improve and the online instructions and blogs/message board are a good source of help.

PROS: The product is a complete solution for web/mobile development. It can be a no code, low code, or code intensive solution depending upon your need. The support of the Alpha staff being reachable and adding to and enhancing the product to meet user demands is unlike any other product on the market.

CONS: The only thing that 'could work better' is the version control software integration. The product works with Git, SVN, etc.. but when you make a small change, there are many updates to the resulting file.
