Panorama

Panorama is a powerful RAM based database for storing, organizing and analyzing information, available in both single user and server versions. Since 1988 Panorama has been in use all over the world for everything from custom accounting to medical research, from huge college track meets to blockbuster Hollywood productions. Panorama's unique RAM based technology makes it the fastest and most flexible database on the market. Key features of Panorama include:

• Lightning Fast Speed (RAM based database technology)
• Super Efficient (Store over 10,000 records per megabyte of RAM)
• Live Search (Instant results as each key is pressed, for a word, a phrase, phonetic matches or for any boolean formula! Right click to quickly locate similar data.)
• Flexible Database Structure (Quickly add, remove, rearrange, hide, combine, split or refactor fields at any time, even for databases that are filled with millions of records.)
• Powerful Data Analysis (Don't just store data, understand it with Panorama's powerful data summarization, crosstab and chart tools.)
• Crash Proof & Idiot Proof (Panorama's redundant architecture protects your vital data from power failures, system crashes and human error. Total Recall means that all your data bounces back after any kind of crash, while Time Lapse allows you to roll back any mistake or user error, even from days or weeks ago. You can even compare different versions of a database over hours, days, weeks or months.)
• Distributed Mesh Client/Server Architecture (Eliminates server and network bottlenecks with distributed RAM based server and clients with synchronization and full record locking.)
• Offline Roaming for Shared Clients (Our distributed mesh means that users can access and modify shared databases offline with automatic synchronization when reconnecting to the server.)
• Fully Relational (Supports one record-to-one record links, range-to-one (for shipping and tax tables), and one record-to-many records)
• Web Database Publishing (Works with Apache server on OS X or OS X server.)
• Complete Graphic Tools (Rapidly design and create windows, reports, and web forms.)
• Flexible Import & Export (Supported formats include ASCII text (CSV or tab separated), HTML, Quicken (QIF, QFX, OFX) and Excel. Drag data directly to or from Excel or Numbers (Mac only). Easily restructure and repair imported data after it is imported.)
• Fully Programmable and Extensible (Extensible Panorama programming language with rapid development and debugging tools plus AppleScript, UNIX shell scripts, Perl, Ruby, Python, and PHP)

  Effective database management is the lifeblood of any successful organization, large or small. The benefits of superior database technology drop right to the bottom line -- staff and inventory will be more productive, customer loyalty will grow, vendors will be at your beck and call, management will make smarter decisions. That's why for most organizations, it's mission critical to deploy the best database technology available today.

  What is new in this release:

  • Panorama installer checks to see if previous version of Panorama is currently running before starting the install (Mac only)
  • Fixed case where installer might ask you whether you want to save changes after installation is complete
  • Fixed Windows installer so it doesn't include a bogus Total Recall.dat file. (Windows only)
  • The RevealInFinder statement now allows a blank file name, if this is used it will reveal the first file in the specified folder
  • Fixed problem that could cause Registry Error during installation (Windows only)
  • Changed Total Recall so that it only saves when something actually changes (faster, but won't remember spot after search unless a change is made)
  • Text Export wizard now tolerates empty columns without causing errors
  • Enabled carriage return when editing Panorama Intialization file
  • Fixed Preferences>Special>Edit Panorama Initialization file on Windows Vista and Windows 7 (Windows only)
  • New panoramaapplicationfolder() function returns folder that contains Panorama's executable code. You probably don't want to use this function.
  • Removed 2k text limitation in form text objects (limit is now 30k) (Windows only)
  • Fixed Expression Stack Error (and possible crash) in Analyze Data dialog (only occured for huge databases w/tens of thousands of groups)
  • Fixed listchoices( bug that would cause crashes if there were way too many choices
  • Both Panorama and Panorama Server can now simultaneously work with Keep-It-Up (Mac only)
  • Added EditCell to list of standard options in the Hotkey Manager
  • Fixed bug in the variable: option of RUNDIALOG that could cause form based custom dialogs to ignore some data input
  • Fixed the TTY statement and wizard (didn't work right in 6.0 and didn't quite match documentation ever).

  Limitations:
