## Servoy 8.1 to Ship on Sept. 16th

AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands — Sept. 16, 2016 — Servoy announced today the latest release of their platform, Servoy 8.1. Utilizing User Experience feedback as its focal point, Servoy 8.1 builds on 15 years of Rapid Application Development innovation and success culminating in a new core technology and even greater accelerated performance. Servoy further addressed the increased demand of time-to-market in a more complex technology driven environment by recognizing the need for DIY building/coding of HTML5 and Responsive apps in this latest version.

“Servoy 8.1 builds on the success of our high-productivity, user-friendly development environment,” said Ron van der Burg, CEO of Servoy. “We work closely with ISVs to continuously enhance our platform so they can create outstanding applications easily and in record time. Servoy allows ISVs to build complex applications without limitations.”

## More powerful than ever

With Release 8.1, Servoy engineers used extensive customer feedback to rethink and optimize how forms are designed. Servoy 8.1 users will notice how fast, intuitive and productive the new form design functionality is, a must for responsive design. UI patterns that are reused multiple times now appear as components in a library. The Servoy engine can also flatten nested levels into one to eliminate complexity and performance issues.

The HTML5 client benefits from a drastically enhanced architecture to optimize performance. Servoy took the complexity out of creating and installing custom components. A simple screen allows users to install and update components, without the need to update the core engine. It reduces the risk of errors, saves time and allows users to iterate easily and as often as they need.

The Servoy platform is designed to facilitate the creation of an outstanding User Experience. It is backed by the Appsurance program ensuring developers have help when they need it to meet time-to-market deadlines. More information on the Servoy platform and the Appsurance program can be found at www.servoy.com.

Servoy has been reinventing application development since 2001. Today, Servoy continues to lead the industry in innovation with only one goal in mind: making it easy for ISVs to create their best and most competitive applications ever.
