Publisher's description
From Iron Speed :Iron Speed Designer is a software development tool for building database, reporting, and forms applications for .NET without hand coding. Quickly create visually stunning, feature-complete Web applications with database access and security. Iron Speed Designer accelerates development by eliminating routine infrastructure programming, giving you ready-to-deploy n-tier Web applications in minutes. Iron Speed Designer quickly creates about 80 percent of your application, so you can focus on the remaining business logic that is unique. Iron Speed Designer guides you through all the steps--selecting database tables, creating Web pages, adding page controls, and customizing the resulting application. When you click Build, the entire n-tier application is created, all the SQL written and all the database-connected controls bound into a working Web application. The application supports C#, VB.NET, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, and Oracle.

Version: Iron Speed Designer 3.0
"Great, easy-to-use, ASP.NET application generator"
Pros: I have been using Iron Speed Designer (ISD) for almost 2 years since version 1.x, and the latest version 3.0 is a great new step in the evolution of the product. The new Code Telescope feature is worthy of mention. After evaluating several products, Iron Speed Designer is the only product that met my requirements of 1) generate the entire application in my language (C# or VB.NET) and database of choice (Access, SQL Server, or Oracle), 2) multi-tier, web-based apps, 3) extensible, open source, 4) customizable user interface, 5) based on best practices, and 6) easy to use. Other products generate ASP.NET apps, but in my opinion, none are as easy to use as Iron Speed Designer. Also, ISD is becoming more and more template based, which continues to increase the extensibility.
Cons: Doesn't generate Win Forms or Mobile apps yet. Doesn't support remoting yet. Maybe a future version.

Version: Iron Speed Designer 3.0
Pros: This is the only product that I have found that provides a soup to nuts solution for creating web applications so quickly and so well. A patch came out for Version 3.0 very quickly after the general release to address post-release issues. There are no other tools out there that come anywhere close to providing round-trip changes and ease-of-use experiences.
The architecture is simply amazing! The changes Iron Speed has made from in V3.0 are primarily for developers. The new class architecture is very solid and now a separate class is created for each record and table panel on a form. This makes control and event management much easier The Code Customization Wizards are better organized as well. This is a tool that generates 100% .NET code in either VB or C# and supports SQL Server, Oracle and Microsoft Access.
A neat new feature is the ability to collapse/expand tables at runtime; very handy for large master-detail constructs where screen real estate is at a premium.
Several nagging issues in V2.0 have been addressed in V3.0 making this the best release yet. This will be my tool of choice for new web applications.
Cons: Too early to tell what the cons are. Non-developers will not notice much of a difference.
Applications built in 2.x may require modification of custom code and some of the code customization wizards still require polish.

Version: Iron Speed Designer 3.0
"I was not able to run anything generated by this stuff... sorry!"
Cons: Ten directories, one hundred files generated and one error message... I can query my SQL 2000 database but this product seems not to work and produce a valid query tool... I've missed something ???
