Focusing On Business Processes
Applications created using diamonds tend to be an extremely good fit for business requirements and very well matched to the way users carry out day to day operations. Building on properly understood, well designed business processes is a cornerstone of application development with diamonds.

Creating Intuitive User-Interfaces
The design of an application's user interface requires skill, focus and flexible interaction with the business end users. diamonds fixes the focus firmly on the design itself, removing the need for business analysts to sink valuable time and effort into writing the chunks of code and creating the database links behind their forms.

Defining and Applying Business Rules
Much of the unique functionality of applications is founded in a relatively small number of specific business rules. diamonds provides central management of all the business rules that are used throughout an application. Rules may be reused extensively and can be grouped to provide simple expression of complex conditions.

Insightful Management Information
Informed business management demands specific information delivered in a variety of different ways. diamonds makes it easy for you to build applications that contain extensive reporting facilities, including: Dashboards & Reports with numerous output formats.

Reusing Valuable Domain Expertise
Within almost every application that supports front office operations there is a large proportion of functionality that, whilst being essential, provides no competitive differentiation. Rather than wasting time reinventing these parts of your applications, Diamonds provides large collections of packaged, instantly re-useable code, data structures, rules and forms.

Enterprise Systems Integration
Businesses can make significant productivity gains when front office applications are integrated with other databases and enterprise applications. Diamonds connects with pre-built connectors to major applications including SAP, Sage and MAPI-compliant mail/groupware systems.

Supporting Multi-Lingual Organisations
All applications created using diamonds are inherently multilingual in their design and structure. The construction of the applications is such that a single installation can switch language instantly, depending on the preference of the current user.

Securing Valuable Data
diamonds builds robust security into every application that you create.
The integrity of applications is also amongst the best available. This is achieved through extremely tight integration with the proven Oracle relational database management system which resides at its core.
