New Servoy Success Story posted - Digital Strata, Inc.
Founded in 1994, Digital Strata is a software and services company that specializes in developing products that ease the burden and complexity of intricate legal processes. Legal teams, law firms, businesses, and third-party legal service providers use Digital Strata applications to help them manage these processes efficiently and accurately.
“The FileMaker development platform posed high cost of entry issues since the solution needed to be on-site. Using Servoy, we overcame the challenges of difficult web implementation, hard to deploy upgrades and updates, as well as a non standards-based solution platform.”
– Dan Fischler, CEO Digital Strata, Inc.

Twitter allows you to use 140 characters, but we’re different and placed one higher on the Fast500 list - 139!
In Deloitte’s Fast 500 list of the fastest growing companies across Europe, Servoy has achieved this distinction for its consecutive second year - an impressive achievement.
Servoy’s growth is listed as 1214% over the past five years, based on audited numbers by Deloitte from 2003-2008.
Servoy has shipped version 5.0 of its 4GL Web services platform. The update features built-in clustering capabilities that extend to the cloud, as well as end-user customizations that persist across sessions.
The platform is based on Java, and can compile both native and Web client applications. Developers design screens to build applications and use JavaScript to write custom business logic.
Servoy generates a multi-tenancy layer between the application and databases, and it is designed to save development time by incorporating functionality that is usually found in Java frameworks.
“From plain old Java, you would need 20 frameworks to simulate [Servoy], from Spring to the Hibernate Java persistence framework to AJAX,” said CEO Jan Aleman.
