The BASIS language allows us to run client server, ODBC / SQL interfaces, and supports industry standard report writers like General and Crystal Reports. It’s the foundation of thousands of mission-critical systems with more than 1.7 million end users in industries as varied as banking to manufacturing to health care. These features are part of a development friendly environment that enables us to quickly change the software to fit your needs.

This type of language is sold by four major companies (BASIS, Providex, MAI Basic Four and Thoroughbred). Open Systems Accounting Software (OSAS) and Add On (ADD+ON) software are also written in the BASIS languages. SSI's FACTS, MAS 90, MAS 200 and 5M (Five-M) are written in Providex.

These languages have continued to evolve since the mid 70's and there is a world wide base of professionals that use it daily. We supply the source code, at no additional charge, so you can have any programmer you want to support you. They exist worldwide.
