• “We want results and changes completed quickly, without a large investment in some huge software infrastructure”
• “We want to build it quickly (e.g. days, not weeks)”
• “We need rugged PCs and tablets in the field, but at our head office, we want to use desktops and portals. How can we minimize the redundant development efforts?”

minimal training time to build with simple scripting.
