Define smart, thin and mobile UIs quickly and easily with newlook.

Define dynamic iSeries webfacing, smart, thin and mobile UIs quickly and easily!

User Interface (UI) Frameworks

Emulation, mobile, thin and smart client UIs, each have a role to play and are generated instantly using newlook's dynamic generation capabilities.

Multi-Channel User Interfaces

Diverse audiences demand flexible user interface support. Knowledge workers and users of heavy transaction-based applications need the responsive, productive experiences offered by smart or rich clients. Global partners and customers may be better suited to zero-deployment, pure web-based interfaces, while a sales force may need to access business applications via phones, PDAs and other mobile devices. For those that demand it, emulation access is also available. newlook is the single development tool that supports these varied UI's.

newlook reuses your existing applications and dynamically generates multi-channel UIs for both new and existing applications.
And it does it easily!

Need proof? Here's what our customers have to say.

Eliminate 5250 OLTP and save

All looksoftware UI’s support lookdirect, instantly enabling ALL your 5250 workloads to utilize the batch CPW capabilities of the POWER5™ System i5, significantly reducing hardware costs.

Composite Applications

Composed primarily of pre-existing functionality, composite applications deliver streamlined business processes, rapid ROI and a rich user experience. Use newlook's comprehensive set of UI controls including DataGrid, TreeView and many more. Use centric to consume web services or connect directly to server-based application logic including RPG, Cobol or Java. Connect directly to DB2 and other databases like SQL Server, Oracle and Access. Connect to 5250 sessions with zero 5250 OLTP requirement.

Smart Clients

Also known as rich clients, smart clients provide the reach of the web with the rich experience of desktop applications. They are preferred by information workers who need built-in integration, rich UI controls and the best performance. Also suited to transaction based users who need the extended keyboard and ‘type ahead’ support, not offered by thin client UIs.

Thin Clients

Zero deployment UIs are best suited to external users like partners and customers. Support for most popular browsers running Linux, Mac or Windows makes thin clients an easy option for instant global access.

Mobile and Wireless

Phones and PDAs are increasingly popular choices for application access. Reuse existing UI designs or design new forms optimized for the ever-changing mobile marketplace.
