Sierra Bravo has developed solutions for many common challenges faced by multivalue-powered businesses including:

Bravo Store: E-Commerce for Multivalue-Powered Businesses If you are running a MultiValue-based application, Bravo Store provides an elegant online store and customer service portal that interacts with your business system in real time. Our unique method extends not just your data, but your business logic to customers through your web site. Even your most complex customer-specific pricing calculations are used to present the most accurate and up-to-date information online. The business rules in your Multivalue application are not re-engineered, they’re re-used. And the integration is so complete that when the customer finishes the online checkout, picking tickets are already printing in your warehouse.

Bravo Reports: Simple Reporting for your Multivalue System Designed from the ground up to work with your multivalue database system, Bravo Reports opens up the data in your D3, Universe, Unidata, MVBase or jBase database system to your users. The turnkey approach allows administrators to quickly define tables and set user access permissions. Users can easily create their own reports with a step-by-step wizard, or access “published” reports that administrators can define and make available. Bravo Reports applies a modern reporting interface to your valuable legacy business systems and that means timely answers to your questions.

Bravo Forms: Eliminate Preprinted Forms and Impact Printers and Enable Paperless Workflows Bravo Forms is a new approach to text-based forms printing that allows businesses to take advantage of attractive, formatted forms without the expense and hassle of pre-printed stock. At the same time, Bravo Forms creates and maintains a complete archive of each form you print. Whether your goal is a paperless workflow or just a convenient, hassle-free way to manage and distribute forms, Bravo Forms is the solution you’re looking for. The flexible form printer definition process allows you to easily define a complex set of processing rules and behaviours and apply them to each job sent to that form printer.

Bravo Capture: Integrate Signature Capture into Your POS and Delivery Processes With Bravo Capture you can easily gather proof of signature from point of sale, delivery and other critical signoff points into an easily accessible, central database. Capture signatures from POS terminals, mobile devices, or even from hardcopy forms. Image data and a transaction\document ID are stored in a searchable database. Use the built in web-interface to search through your records or take advantage of the API to integrate signature search and display into other business systems.

Bravo Warehouse: With Bravo Warehouse, your staff can reach new levels of efficiency while creating a truly paperless management model. By using wireless handheld devices to augment your existing character applications, Bravo Warehouse dramatically reduces picking errors and allows you to better utilize warehouse staff. Realtime tracking information on inventory and orders means that your customer services staff always has the most current, accurate information at their fingertips. Bravo Warehouse helps you to maximize your investment by providing a bridge between cutting edge wireless technology and your multivalue business systems.
