PowerVista understands that every successful organization is exceptional. That's why each PowerVista application is built to be customized to meet customer needs.

PowerVista software applications are developed using PowerVista Bridge, a comprehensive rapid application development environment. PowerVista Bridge, combined with the application's Style Library and source code for each application, allows every customer to customize applications for their specific needs. 

Organizations searching for software begin by expecting to find an excellent fit - they expect 'everyone' to have identical needs. At some point, it's apparent that each organization is unique. Which is good, because otherwise there wouldn't be room for competition! This is why there are many applications for the same vertical market, and the primary reason that companies outgrow applications. It's why many organizations spend several times more on customization than on the original software purchase. PowerVista starts with this understanding, and then builds on it to make the perfect application -- especially tailored to you! Customization is easy, reliable, inexpensive and continues to extend the application to meet your growing business. 

Each application is based on its own set of Regeneratable Styles. This Style Library is installed with the PowerVista Bridge development environment. Source code for PowerVista applications is installed with the development environment. Source code is also available for download on the PowerVista web site. The combination of the Style Library, the source code and  PowerVista Bridge create a comprehensive development environment usable by any level programmer to customize PowerVista applications. A licensed PowerVista application such as RollCall or GlobalFamily can be customized and released with no run-time charges.
