Her we have a small list of Microsoft Access replacements, with access over Internet or Intranet. All this suites are based on the server - client model.
  • nuBuilder

  • Open Limbas
    Open Limbas is a database management system in order to quickly create web-based applications. Limbas is based on PHP and includes the GPL2 license. Like Access, from basic features such as table management, form and report generator as well as charting and workflow features it can be dynamically modeled with one another to any product solution. The independant database-system includes a pre-integrated User-/Groupmanagement, a document management and various groupware functionalities.
  • Adminer, Adminer-Edit
