		Create, manage and share your Enterprise Applications with EpioBuilder.
EpioBuilder has a smarter, more intuitive set of tools and services to help you handle many of the repetitive and time-consuming tasks associated with developing web systems.
Application Quality Management		The application quality management profiler helps you to see where any functional element is used within your application. This aids in debugging but also in upholding solution quality and industry standards.
Real-time debugging		The debug tools thoroughly test the components of the system, and performance is automatically calculated and reported. These tools can be left running in a live environment to get accurate 'real world' performance and behaviour information for specific applications. Every error that occurs is automatically logged and reported.
Application packager		The packager is a powerful tool that allows entire applications to be wrapped up into a single Application Package file. This package can be used to install the application onto other servers. This allows wizard-style installation of applications, back-up and restore capability, version control, archiving, and trouble free deployment of applications.
Application tracer		When Trace Mode display is toggled on the EpioBuilder interface it expands to include data describing the load times, user actions and any system or developer events logged during the execution of the page and its workspaces.
Application mapper		This Service maps the links between each workspace in the application. It is a useful indicator of the flow of an application and its interaction with other applications in the system.
Integrated version control		Automatic version control for applications allows previous workspace versions to be restored easily. Information on code changes between versions is presented in a simple interface.
Enterprise portal layout		Creates completely customisable environments for business users, providing personalised information spaces for each user based on their business roles.
