How does it work?
Visual Expert Standalone
When analyzing small volumes of code or trying Visual Expert, you can run it locally on a developer PC.
Visual Expert Team System
For large volumes of code, and for sharing analyses between team members, Visual Expert will run on a server.
Support for multiple programming languages
Visual Expert can analyze several programming languages, either separately (Oracle code only for instance) or altogether
(for example: PowerBuilder Front-end + an Oracle back-end + Front-end / Back-end dependencies).
Multi-application
You can analyse multiple applications at the same time.
For example if you maintain a portfolio and need to explore several applications in parallel.
Collaborative features
Team members can collaborate, sharing the same code analysis. For instance, an analyst prepares a change and lists the objects impacted. Teammates leverage this Impact Analysis, to review and change the corresponding objects. More about Visual Expert TEAM SYSTEM
Keep snapshots of your code
When a new code analysis is done, previous ones remain available. Open previous analyses to browse older versions of your code. Compare two code Analyses to find differences between them.
