Here are just a few comments
we have received about our products:
"...Great product. Great service. Thank you." Neil Middleton,
MD, Contact Technology, New Zealand [about WordController]
"...Support was just great and they listened to us. They were always
responsive.... Gilles Larouche, R&D Manager, MIO
Informatics, Canada
"...this is a MUST for all serious COOL:Gen developers using OLE to enhance
the functionality of their systems. An excellent product, WinFun is
extremely robust, extremely well documented and very easy to use and deploy.
The one bug encountered was fixed and deployed within a couple of hours -
which puts many larger organisations to shame.
Rainier must be congratulated on their efficient and pragmatic approach to
providing product enhancements on a very short timescale.
As a consultant very experienced in the use of COOL:Gen, I will find it
easy to recommend the purchase and use of WinFun for use on projects with
new customers."
Andy Wyatt, COOL:Gen Consultant, UK
"And Sterling thought their new product was COOL? WinFun allowed us to
create functionality never imagined possible with any form of the
IEF/Composer/COOL:Gen toolsets. For an Information Engineering project, this
is truly the COOLest product I've seen.
WinFun allowed us to develop a solution that was impossible in the
traditional Composer/COOL:Gen toolset, yet required by our customer."
EDS COOL:Gen Consultant, USA
"WinFun has been utiltised to help us revamp our GuardIEn and IET-Assist products to give them a more intuitive and modern look and feel. WinFun
functions have provided us with fast and simple methods to enhance the slickness and presentation of our COOL:Gen generated applications."
John Gymer, IET UK
"At Emery we use Exposer extensively in our component publication process
to produce specification documentation that is in a useable format to
the potential users of our components. Also, I have been impressed with
Rainier's responsiveness to my requests for technical support."
Jeff Jasperson, Emery Worldwide, USA
"We were involved in a COOL:Gen client/server development project that
required a high-quality GUI incorporating detailed printing and reporting with
Microsoft Word and Excel. The COOL:Gen toolset
provided an interface but with limitations such as the inability to trap
and report errors. Rainier's WinFun, WordFun and ExcelFun provided the solution
- allowing the desktop applications to be easily manipulated from within
COOL:Gen code, and providing a wide range of additional functionality with the ability
to trap errors and act upon return codes.
Once installed on a PC the Rainier components were available to COOL:Gen like
any other ActiveX control making the functions extremely simple to use within the
COOL:Gen action diagrams. The detailed
documentation and on-line help gave good guidance on how to use the functions.
We were able to return large volumes of data from our COOL:Gen servers and to
produce complex reports using Excel (via ExcelFun) and mailshot letters
using Word (via WordFun) without the need for EABs or complex technical
knowledge. I would recommend these products as a useful addition to any
COOL:Gen development.
"
Paul Jameson, Development Co-ordinator, Ventura Analysis, USA
"WinFun has helped us to get rid of old, homemade C++ code used to handle
specific tasks. Among these are controlling the Client Manager, customizing window
and dialogboxes and customizing the content of dropdown menus."
Jan-Ove Nesheim, Nykredit Data, Denmark
If you are looking to integrate Word into yours Apps, then I strongly recommend
looking at WordController."
"Our shop uses Imposer to update and
report on COOL:Gen model objects. To put it simply, Imposer is a highly
cost effective COOL:Gen productivity tool, with the emphasis on productivity!
Imposer paid for itself almost immediately! Imposer helps in three
significant ways - update, extract and report. The update feature allows
us to make single or mass edits with ease and accuracy. Additionally, it
saves time by enabling the direct update of object properties that would
otherwise require the retransformation of the object - which is not always the
preferred solution. The extract capability allows us to extract and audit
model objects for compliance with our specific standards. As a reporting
tool, Imposer has completely and effectively replaced our SQL scripts for the
Public Interface".
"The MS Excel interface couldn't be easier
and it allows us to interface with some of our other tools. Last
but not least, the technical support is superb. They are knowledgeable,
flexible and timely. I wish every product was this well-made and
useful"!
Eric A. Nelson, Owner, Effective Solutions,
