NOTICE: Visual Software Has Closed

As the result of a combination of unforeseen events, Visual Software had to close its doors in the summer of 2023. Current customers can contact rchutch@visualsi.com if assistance is needed with software that is still in use. We would like to extend our gratitude to all the customers who played a significant role in our achievements throughout our 28 years of service. The official documentation confirming the closure has been filed with the PA Department of Revenue.

Interoperable

Your life is connected, but for one reason or another, your data isn’t available when and where you need it. “They” tend to say the sharing process is too complex, it takes too long to implement, or it is simply too expensive to put in place.

If you think it shouldn’t be that difficult or expensive, we agree with you. We’ve solved the problem for any applications that share similar data both in small and large scale environments, in real time (as the data is entered).

We’ve also used this “interoperability” foundation to build complete, sustainable solutions for education and healthcare.

No Code / Low Code

Since 2001, Visual Software has been using a low code / no code approach to solving interoperability, education, and healthcare requirements.

“No Code”  is a completely configurable application, requiring no assistance from a professional programmer to fully function.  Visual Software products are all designed to be “no code” products and in most instances, a straightforward configuration is all that is needed to reach a full production-ready solution.

In some circumstances, the customer may extend the built-in functionality to interface the application with some custom code they have already developed.  This is why we added “low code” features into our products – so that customers could interface their own custom code with a small, short web service or stored procedure.

Upcoming African Projects

We, along with The eNeighborhood Project (a 501(c)(3) non-profit) and several African partners, are beginning a new work among those in parts of Africa who have never had access to technology in education and healthcare because:

  • their remote location and lack of infrastructure (electricity, Internet Access, equipment
  • their level of income – we are mainly addressing countries where the average daily income is $2.50 UDS or less
  • a lack of existing technical expertise

We believe that, through proper planning, we can provide these facilities in a truly sustainable manner.  This would require an outside initial investment, but would set up communities with:

  • Computer equipment (notebook computers)
  • Long-lasting, low-power solar energy
  • Wi-Fi and 3G/4G extenders so that community members can access content free of data charges
  • Training, both at user and system levels, so that the communities can be supported locally, not depending on US support on a daily basis
  • A budget plan that, along with the proper choice of durable equipment, can indefinitely sustain the communities, at a price level that is affordable by the community (between $200 and $300 per community per year)
