Creating Rich Web Applications Gets a Ton Easier

Visual WebGui Product Review by Brockmann & Company

"Faster development of a rich media experience for web applications that are secure in operation has been a particularly elusive goal for many enterprise application developers since the debate about thin client and thick clients a decade ago. Until now.

An Israeli company, Gizmox, has followed an interesting path to develop its technologies and business model. Founded in a garage in 2005 and formally established in 2007, the company has raised $3.5 million in VC funding and achieved some 370,000 downloads and 35,000 applications demonstrating Visual WebGui's solid following as an open source project.

Now, the company introduces a commercial support and licensing scheme as it seeks to further penetrate the enterprise market. Visual WebGui brings the ultimate simplicity to the .NET development framework through an enterprise SDK ($1,500/seat/year) that plugs into popular development tools such as Windows Forms or for the Java developer - Swing. The runtime server product ($3,000/server/year) acts as a web interface to the application and supports DHTML, Silverlight and other presentation standards."
