CONNECT - A Common Place

Connect was conceived out of the necessity of our customers. It was often found that many organizations were looking for a way to bring all of their relevant information, no matter its source, into one, easy to use, portal based framework.

"Connect to your data today, and make sense of your digital world."

Finally... an enterprise framework for the .NET Community

Manatix's research and development team took the logical step of constructing a flexible, powerful, yet open platform, supported by the .NET development community. After nearly three years of research and design, we have achieved what we feel is the ultimate experience in web based portal framework development. Connect - the next generation in rapid web development that any general user or .NET developer can ever dream of using.
