To provide excellent, cost-effective solutions for customers, ARM Software Consulting, LLC (ARM) has developed a number of tools to use in building custom software.
This is a set of components developed by ARM for quickly building Windows database applications. These components are based on the Microsoft .NET Framework.
Whether as a standalone application or integrated as part of a custom solution, ARM Reports work with the customer's data to produce Excel spreadsheets. This provides a format that is familiar to users, and makes it easy for them to use and work with the information. ARM solutions combine the benefit of having the official data located in a central database with the powerful analytical capabilities of Excel.
If the customer wants the user to be able to update the data in the central database, it can be changed directly in the spreadsheet and uploaded with the push of a button.
Reports can also be produced as PDF files.
Many applications and web sites allow exporting data to Excel, but often the data is unformatted. The ARM Excel Formatter can be used to automatically format these files exactly to the customer's specifications.
An example of software that was built using the above components and tools is PLUTO.
PLUTO was built for the real estate financing industry, and continues to grow as customers find it to be powerful and flexible, yet easy to use. Customers that use it consider it to be an important competitive advantage, and have stated that their partners have been impressed with the reports they receive.
