History
Alpha Five is developed by Alpha Software, Inc., which has been continually producing end-user and developer database application software since 1982.[1][2]
Alpha Five V7 was the winner of the 2005 Product of the Year award for "Best Database" from CRN.com.[3] In 2010 Alpha Five was reviewed along with four other similar web development systems by InfoWorld, who explained that such tools confer a "speed boost to development with features such as WYSIWYG prototyping environments, loads of prebuilt graphical components, and easy deployment."[4]
