Their demos are fast because they load limited data, clear the data after some time. You can see that in the Code-on-Time advanced tutorials.
You'll have to make lots of custom code for this, in case the default settings does not apply for you. That works great, until you need to add business logic, limiting input, validating input. Code-Gnerator layer approach.įor example, the way how their modelling works, is that it pulls all the MSSQL tables and generates edit fields, tables and grids from there. The second problem you will run into is the data-model part and what actually constitutes ORM + MVC approach vs. So if you own CodeOnTime for 4 years, you can imagine the big bill you end up paying for. Sadly, I could not justify this price because of recession in the USA and cost-cutting. The CodeOnTime unlimited version is US$2499 for 12 months.
Personally, I bumped into many limitations in their Premium version and needed to upgrade to the Unlimited version, such as complex business logic, dynamic access control (needed so you can redefine access control), simple auditing and logging. So you start to upgrade from Standard to Premium quite quickly. You will need their Premium or Unlimited version. The first problem you will run into is defining the business logic part. You will have to weigh this product (and other non-ORM code-generating products, like IronSpeed, Code-On-Time, CodeCharge which uses proprietary data access layers.) vs using ORM-layer with Advanced Code-Generators.
I used Code-on-Time before stopping to use it.
