Customer Quotes
"The best IDE support for struts in Eclipse I've found is now owned
by BEA, and is called BEA Workshop Studio. It was formerly NitroX from
m7. It does a great job of providing development time error checking
and code completion in jsp and xml configuration files, including
validation and tiles configuration."
Adam Samere, Shotgunflat
"God I love your product, I think it took me about 3 hours to figure
out JSF. Please extend my thanks to the entire Nitro-X [BEA Workshop
Studio] team for a killer product. I wish this product was around when
I first learned struts and would suffer through getting all the XML
elements just right. Killer tool for learning struts as well as the
seasoned developer."
Steve Peterson, AAND Tech, Inc.
"Using the BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] product has been a valued
asset to my software development efforts. Many of the features included
in the product has significantly lower time to market for product
development. The BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] product has a very
refined GUI which makes navigation among the component and modules of
my application seem less. I would highly recommend this product as a
development package for any enterprise."
Christopher E. Gotiear, Sr. Project Manager, Information Technology
"I have been looking at IDE's that support JSF technology for some
time. BEA's Workshop for JSF [NitroX] provides both drag-and-drop
capabilities as well as maintaining a strong ability to work with the
underlying code easily. BEA Workshop for JSF [NitroX] is by far the
easiest IDE I've used for JSF development. It's BEA Workshop for JSP
with split code/screen capabilities actually make developing JSP/JSF
pages enjoyable. The debugging of your application from the JSP page
itself down into the guts of the code make problem resolution much
easier."
Lee M Seidel, Manager, EC/Web Enterprises, Capital BlueCross
"BEA Workshop for Struts [NitroX] is a time saver, pure and simple.
From the visual representation of the struts-config.xml to the
Design/Source view of jsps, BEA Workshop [NitroX] helps our Java
developers and Web Designers to develop rich web applications with
ease. Our web designers love the fact that they can now see what the
struts-config.xml is doing without having to pour through hundreds of
lines of XML. Our developers love how the BEA Workshop for Struts
[NitroX] web perspective is so much more aware of the web application
as a whole. It makes the application feel like a single unit rather
than a bunch of disconnected jsps, beans and actions. Not only is time
saved, but our developers can work in concert with one another without
alienating each other or stepping on each others feet. The tool is that
flexible. Sure, you can develop great applications with Eclipse or
Rational Application Developer without BEA Workshop for Struts
[NitroX], but I wouldn't want to."
Eric Christensen, Web Applications Developer, Utah Retirement Systems
"I spent a lot of time looking at how to be productive in our Struts
1.2 development. I understood the benefits of Struts, but the
complexity of editing large XML configuration files, looking up
documentation for struts tags, and then debugging the application can
sometimes get overwhelming and even make it such that the intellectual
investment in Struts just isn't worth it. I looked at many tools to
help, and nothing else even came close to comparing to the impact BEA
Workshop [NitroX] would have on our productivity. I can't image
developing for Struts without using BEA Workshop for Struts! [NitroX]
Thanks, Jeff, for keeping this great application priced such that a small company like ours can easily justify the cost."
David Larson, Digital Cyclone, Inc.
"BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] is the best development app for the
Java platform that we have seen. The application is nearly flawless and
their support is A+. For web development, the improvements over Eclipse
improve developer productivity at least 25% and will pay for the cost
of the software in weeks."
Alan Berezin, CTO, Drilling Info Inc.
"As an existing user of the BEA Workshop Studio Hibernate tools, I
appreciate that the EJB3 tools are so similar; and can make it easy to
learn. Also, the AppXRay™ dependency mapping for EJB3 related
annotations and artifacts really has helped me validate my code."
Andrew Timpone, FedEx Custom Critical
"Our group has been programming web applications using the Struts
Framework for the last year or so. But I still had to manually relate
the various parts of the struts-config.xml file (action-mappings,
global forwards, form-beans) to the rest of the classes. Plus, I had to
hand check the spelling of names and properties in the JSP or Struts
tags in a JSP page which became very tedious for the larger pages with
50-100 variables of them. BEA Workshop for Struts [NitroX] solved the
most difficult problem I had in developing a Struts application:
relating the JSP pages to the rest of the code, or relating the "V" to
the "M" and "C" in MVC 2, and automatically made sure my entire web app
was valid!"
Paul K. Courtney, Architect at BioInformatics at Dartmouth Medical
"BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] is the only development and debugging
environment that understands the relationships between web application
layers. When you import a web application into BEA Workshop Studio
[NitroX], it automatically builds a database of intelligence about the
entire application. So now, whether you are working on a JSP file, a
Struts artifact, or just Java code, BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] knows
about all the other layers and makes it very effective to program."
Aashima Gupta, Architect with a leading financial institute
"To keep on top of leading edge technology, we need to examine
dozens of unfamiliar enterprise applications as rapidly as possible.
BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] allows us to import, analyze and visualize
all of the elements and dependencies of a Struts web app within a
single familiar environment. BEA Workshop Studio [NitroX] manages the
dependencies intelligently throughout the entire development lifecycle.
It is especially valuable in the debugging phase, as it automatically
detects and flags all the consistency and validity errors in an app
before it deploys it, and provides a debugger that works with both
Tomcat and WebLogic."
Charles Adkins, Founder and Chief Architect of Adkins & Associates
