Valentina Developer Network

Make Valentina Server the heart of your next network application solution.

Valentina Server is a powerful system for building client-server or server-only solutions and available under two licenses. The standard license is a single deployment license. But solution providers of many kinds need a platform they can redistribute to their own clients and customers. Paradigma Software has a special developer program that delivers exactly that: Valentina Developer Network (VDN).

VDN is a special OEM developer license for Valentina Server. What features does Valentina Server have? Find out more over on Valentina Server features...
