  • First ORM that works out of the box. Almost no configuration (annotations) needed. Very nice!

  • Sormula is a excellent tool for data access logic. We have been using it for the past month and it has been reliable with multiple read write transactions and ease of use. I highly recommend this product for developers that work with relational databases.
