I would like to know if anyone has started or heard about using ultradev for personalization sites. (portals). What I would like to do is to develop a help desk that when a programmer logs in, it shows them their open request and personal links and messages on their. Anyone heard something like this.

Thanks

Ultradev is widely used for such sites, as this is one of the main features of an interactive site.

To achieve this you have to cleverly design your database so that everything can be cross-referenced by a user id.

Then when generating the SQL code you just use the user id as a filter.

I know this sounds extremely easy, and it isn't quite as easy as this in practice, but it really just needs a little careful planning from the outset and it is achievable by everyone.

This is exactly the sort of task that Ultradev excels at.
