Stringham's team enjoyed the ease of development and robust functionality they obtained by using Rogue Wave's products. Stringham is also impressed by their program's significant increase in performance. Rogue Wave's RWBTreeOnDisk class allowed us to bypass the indexing method on the database to make lookups more efficient. We don't have to rely on lookups via SQL-Select. They both have a clean implementation when compared to most other libraries.
Usage is consistent throughout, and naming conventions within the classes are consistent.
They all use similar methods, so when one class behaves a certain way, you can expect another to behave the same way. Ingenix's new program has only 5,000 lines of code as opposed to 20,000, making the code more maintainable. Whenever we wanted to output using our old program, we had to write a specific statement for each source. We can improve and expand our products, making the company more successful. The new claims processing engine has been in use since September 1999 and Stringham is extremely happy with its performance.
