Need some informations

Hi there,

I just discover VisualNeo Web but I have some difficulties to know exactly where we are with it.

I have some dev background but I definitly like making with niche solutions or just making but with some tools that make our life easier, in my hobby times.

Now my questions :

  • How does it compare to solutions like Xojo or LiveCode ? (I mean without speaking about its price).
  • I've seen that we can make some database elements with login / pass, can we consider that we can make this secure (hash, client-server communication etc...) to avoid hacks.
  • It seems that there is not a lot of community contents (on Youtube or whatever), like this tool is not very well known. Is there a reason ?
  • I think that it lacks of real tutorials. I mean, the video on Youtube are not enough and generally without any speaks (just some music), the online tutorial that are on the website are not very clear to teach something...I know that there is course about it but in russian and I don't speak russian so...
  • Does the desktop export is viable with VisualNeo Web if we consider making a desktop app, and if yes, what are the limits if they exist ?
  • Can we consider that VisualNeo Win is an old product ?

I know about the 30 days trials but it difficult to know exactly where this product is on the "market". So globally , what should I consider ?

Thank you in advance, and sorry for my english.

See you :)

@mooncrystal welcome to the forums!

I will try to answer all of your questions:

How does it compare to solutions like Xojo or LiveCode ? (I mean without speaking about its price).

VisualNEO Web is a 100% web solution, it's easier to use than most of the competitors and you can use our simplified programming language NeoScript, JavaScript or both of them. If you have previous web development knowledge you will feel at home very soon.
VisualNEO Win is older, simpler and focused in creating Windows Desktop executables.

I've seen that we can make some database elements with login / pass, can we consider that we can make this secure (hash, client-server communication etc...) to avoid hacks.

Using VisualNEO Web, you have three possible options:

  • Using our simple neoPhp plugin for simple and quick projects and basic security.
  • Using neoCMS, our headless CMS to create more complex applications using a customizable data backend.
  • Using your own server side scripts or frameworks.

If you prefer VisualNEO Win, NeoDBpro plugin is a very easy and powerful plugin to manage almost any kind of databases.

It seems that there is not a lot of community contents (on Youtube or whatever), like this tool is not very well known. Is there a reason ?

We are a small community of very friendly and enthusiastic users, but effectively our software is not very well known. We are working hard to change this!

I think that it lacks of real tutorials. I mean, the video on Youtube are not enough and generally without any speaks (just some music), the online tutorial that are on the website are not very clear to teach something...I know that there is course about it but in russian and I don't speak russian so...

We have put a lot of effort in out YouTube videos. They will help you to get started with VisualNEO Web. There is also a bunch of included samples for you to play with and you will alwys get very personalized help here in the support forums.
Aditionally VisualNEO Win is almost identical to NeoBook. You can find online many tutorials about it.

Does the desktop export is viable with VisualNeo Web if we consider making a desktop app, and if yes, what are the limits if they exist ?

There are many technical solutions to generate Desktop applications:
NWjs, neoEdge, Volt Builder (external service) and PWAs.
Each one has its own possibilities. Please take a look at the specific forum sections for more information.

Can we consider that VisualNeo Win is an old product ?

Yes, an old but still powerful, easy and efficient product.

I know about the 30 days trials but it difficult to know exactly where this product is on the "market". So globally , what should I consider ?

Sorry, I do not understand this question.
If you read the reviews on ProductHunt, this website and many other online places, you will see how appreciated VisualNEO software is.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for the answers @luishp

Yes i have an other question :) I would like to know how many installation can we do with one licence ? It's something important for me because I use 2 computers and depending on where I am, I can use one or the other.

That's not a problem: with the same purchase you can include as many SystemID's as computers you personally use.

Thank you for the update.

So I can install on more than one computer as long as they are mine?  How does this work?

@neal-stone just send us by email your SystemID's and purchase information
