  • The steps are easy to follow, and it explains every part of the process to enable even the layman to understand what needs entering.

    The Web 2.0 interface also makes it visually pleasing,; something the developer may not ordinarily be used to.

  • The relationship management part is crucial in getting your fields talking to each other. This is why it's set out so simply so you can essentially describe what you want, then fill it in as appropriate.

  • The forms is where the data is stored and viewed, so making sure your forms are what they're supposed to be is important.

    By simply double-clicking, you can change the form to whatever you want it to be - a calendar, a text area, a text box or even a date/time field.

  • Perfect example:
    My field is called DateTime and using the form customiser, it makes it easy to configure the field to what it is supposed to do and look like.

    I can even track the changes of the field for reporting purposes or event tracking management.

  • Although Boolean values aren't there by default, by using some simple text option modifications, I can get what I want with minimal hassle or screwing around.

  • The instant search feature shows the depth Iceberg has with any other database, legacy or otherwise. By querying the database and adding AJAX features to the user interface allows the "developer" to have real-time updates of what fields are.

  • When sending emails to clients, you can write how your email wants to look and sound like, whereas Iceberg has the ability to enter field data in, to customise the email and what data it has.

    This will save time when emailing, as it is done automatically, but also automates processes to make life easier for everyone.

  • This is one example of Iceberg in the MoI&T of Jordan, and what can be done with it.

    This application prints barcodes for IT machinery and appliances to identify when they need repairing, who they belong to but also catalogues them into the backend database.

  • And here is the example of the eFax service - using an OCR element to connect and download faxes directly into Iceberg.
