Tom Sawyer Perspectives helps you build professional web and desktop applications that visually reveal dependencies and structures in data.

Whether your data is stored in a database, a Microsoft Excel file, text file, or an XML file, Tom Sawyer Perspectives enables your application to display several different synchronized views of your data.

Tom Sawyer Perspectives integrators automate the process of linking your data to a visualization application. You can interact with and change data from within the views, then commit the changes back to the originating data sources. Tom Sawyer Perspectives integrators can access data in one or more of these sources:

• Databases
• Microsoft Excel spreadsheets
• Plain text files
• XML files

The Tom Sawyer Perspectives database wizard facilitates setting up a database integrator by inspecting how the data is organized in your database.

Viewing data from only one perspective limits the insight you can get from the data. Tom Sawyer Perspectives offers a variety of simultaneous views, allowing you to highlight different aspects of your data.

With Tom Sawyer Perspectives Designer, you create a single project that combines all of the different components used in your visualization application. Using this graphical development environment, you define the type of data you are working with and configure how to retrieve or write the data back to your data sources. You use customizable rules, rather than programming, to configure the appearance and behavior of the data within the views.

When you have completed your project, integrate it with your desktop or web application. You can quickly make changes in your application by modifying the project in Tom Sawyer Perspectives Designer.

With Tom Sawyer Perspectives Previewer, you can preview your project for both web and desktop applications without leaving Tom Sawyer Perspectives Designer, giving you immediate feedback. As a result, your efforts are minimized.

If necessary, you can also go beyond the capabilities offered by Tom Sawyer Perspectives Designer. With our robust APIs, you can further customize your application to meet your specific requirements.

Use this approach to build your custom visualization application.

1. Use Tom Sawyer Perspectives Designer to define your data, configure integrators and views, and then save the definitions and configurations in a project file.
2. Integrate the components defined in Tom Sawyer Perspectives Designer into your application.
3. Use our APIs to further customize your application.

Tom Sawyer Perspectives components can be applied to a wide variety of industry settings, including banking, data management, energy, engineering design, intelligence, IT, life sciences, networking, and software engineering. You can use Tom Sawyer Perspectives in a web or desktop application.
