I’ve spent the last couple days digging through Xcase and have found your product to be exceptional, especially when compared to products costing much more. This new release is quite remarkable in how well it integrates all of the many functions and the new interface is elegant, intuitive, and easy on the eyes. I have been an Erwin user since 1996 and Xcase has caused me to abandon it forever. It’s been quite a while since I’ve been so impressed with a commercial software application – it is a compelling piece of work that data workers of any expertise level will appreciate.

You folks keep up the good work! I will actually be canceling my Erwin support this year, since I’ve found a replacement. Xcase supports more databases, and has the TCL extensions, while Erwin supports fewer databases every year. Plus, a full license of your product costs less than annual support for Erwin!

Eagle Datamation International looked at every major Case tool available and compared price, capabilities and ease of use. We despaired of every finding a decent tool, the costs were high the capabilities poor and the user interfaces were difficult to understand…”Until we found Xcase. Xcase is low Cost, High performance, very, very simple to use, yet has more capabilities than any of the other tools we used. I am amazed at its performance and continue to be impressed with the speed at which the software is maturing. We continually get new releases that address issues and add features to the system. The overall package AND the detail of the implementation are fantastically powerful.

I use, and teach the use of, Xcase to Visual ProMatrix users worldwide. The universal reaction to the power of designing in Xcase, and then importing into the ProMatrix Data Dictionary using the ProSysPlus Xcase2VPM tool, is one of astonishment. What was fuzzy, becomes clear. Within minutes of completing the Xcase model, VPM forms with full relational integrity and field validation are built from the VPM builders, and are running. Additionally, the ability to add attributes to Xcase objects (entities, fields, etc.) has allowed me to fully populate lookup lists with ProMatrix, both at the entity and foreign key level. With the coming introduction on n-tier based VPM Enterprise, I cannot imagine a better combination of tools with which to handle data. Without the openness of the Xcase data, and the continual improvements added to Xcase, none of this would be possible.

We are developing a large application and database to record and store criminal histories and police reports. The design of the database is critical for retrieving timely crime statistics for better community police efforts. I am new to using an ER diagramming tool and was primarily concerned with finding a tool that would be intuitive and easy to learn. Xcase has worked out very nicely for our project development. The best part, though, is that when I have had questions, I have received quick and helpful responses from Resolution’s customer support.

The most important part of my applications is DATA… Before choosing a framework or starting any of the application development, I use Xcase Professional to model the data, producing clear diagrams that developers and end-users alike can understand. Good data design is crucial to a successful application and Xcase is the tool I always reach for first. It helps me avoid errors in data design that could be very costly to fix later.

Xcase is the GREATEST. It has saved me so much especially with Visual ProMatrix and gives me a clean view of my model and an easy way to make changes. Keep up the great work.”

Xcase is a must have for analysts, designers and developers, especially in the two products in which I work, Visual Fox Pro and MS SQL Server. Xcase lets you work smarter by minding the minutia for you, while you concentrate on how to realize your customer’s requirements. The product is well conceived (you don’t have to work its way) and easy to learn and still has all the depth and attention to detail database design demands. I really love this tool.

As a long time database developer who only recently started working with SQL servers, we have faced a steep learning curve. In addition, we have been trying to keep up with a client that keeps making little changes to the database design. Xcase has been a lifesaver. Using Xcase we can quickly change the design and generate a SQL script to create the new database structure. I wish changing the application code was that easy. One of the greatest things about Xcase is the rapid response we have always received from their technical support staff.

Concerning Xcase in general, we consider that Xcase is a very good tool that supports most of the features we were expecting for the support of our DB life cycle. As SME, we haven’t had the time and the money to investigate deeply the other tools and have been guided by money quality/(low) price considerations. Having worked with Xcase with more than a year, we have been pleased by the number of supported DBMS, its stability, the quality of its support and have not encountered any missing feature that would require for us to go for another tool.

DynaSoft® has been using Xcase for designing the database for DynaWare® Empresarial, a world class ERP system. Xcase has proven to be an invaluable tool, since it is easy to use, very reliable, and flexible. We have converted our original SQL Server 6.5 model to Informix, Oracle, and SQL Server 7.0 in matter of hours, making minor adjustments, mainly because of DBMS differences.

We at Healthline Systems, Inc. started using Xcase when we began transitioning our software products from FoxPro data structures to SQL Server. Xcase quickly evolved into a vital part of our development strategies. Its excellent presentation abilities have been extremely helpful in documentation and its script generation processes are an integral part of our implementation plan. In addition, Resolution’s support response has been outstanding. There is a real team support in the business relationship. We extend highest recommendations for Resolution and their Xcase software.

We are a software house and concentrate of development of large MIS/ Data warehouse systems. Since we moved to VFP6 we started to use Xcase. Today we do not understand how anybody who is doing development in VFP or SQL Server could live without it. Xcase is strictly recommended.

Last night I saw a demo of Xcase and thought it would be an excellent teaching/learning tool. I teach a sequence of courses in Systems Analysis, Design, and Implementation at a local community college. I like the ability of your product to support ERD modeling, and your documentation is excellent.

Andy Vaughan, Instructor
South Seattle Community College

Let me also take a minute to tell you that I believe your manual does an excellent job of explaining how Xcase works with databases. The explanations are very clear, and I have learned much from your documentation.

Steve Riskind

It’s worth every penny to reverse-engineer a large custom app, just to print out huge overlapping (color) charts of tables and relations. I’ve never seen a client so impressed.

Barry Pollack

I never had played with Case tools, but now, trust me, I know what they are made for! Your product is remarkably intuitive and stable.

Overall, a very impressive piece of work. I’ve worked with a number of ‘CASE’ tools and with Xcase I found that when I asked ‘what about xxx?’ the answer was usually ‘yes, we can handle that!

Andy Neil

This is a phenomenal tool – I’ve showed it to a few of our developers and basically, plan on doing a user group session on it. It is by far the best Case tool for FoxPro around! I love it.

Andrew Ross MacNeill

Well, I’ve been poking around with Xcase over the last few days and I’m really impressed. I’m rather stunned with how tight the integration with VFP is… other CASE tools don’t come close!

We received your product 1 hour ago, we opened a database that was already working and in less than 10 minutes we printed the Entity-Relationship Diagram. Your product is great!!!

Xcase is an excellent product. It’s powerful, flexible, extendible, and for the price, it represents an incomparable value.

I have found Xcase to be very reliable and generally get quick turnaround time for bugs.

Rob Shuff

I downloaded your Xcase Light Edition. I was impressed with its ease of use.

Hector Santos

I’m still considering Xcase as the best database case tool.

I think the product is great and the more I use it and get to know its inner power the more I like it.
