"Your product is awesome. It's exactly what will change the world of programming and community editing."

"I've prototyped enough of a collaborative environment to know that local editing is the key, introducing a potentially nasty merging problem if two people's edits clash. I believe UNA solves this well... I wonder if this is a Clayton Christenson-style disruptive innovation. The elements seem to be in place. The basis of competition is shifting from individual productivity to fine-grained, real-time collaboration."

Quality Software Initiative

Developed with UNA

The Quality Software Initiative is a program put together by N-BRAIN, Inc., designed to put troubled products on the fast-track to recovery through application of the UNA Product and Paradigm.

Qualifying companies[1] receive complimentary passes to an UNA Training Workshop, as well as a custom consultation by an N-BRAIN, Inc. employee, who will setup UNA with the company product and developers, and personally guide developers in using UNA for product development.

Companies who participate in the Quality Software Initiative may be eligible[2] to use theDeveloped with UNA mark on their products, to demonstrate their exceptional commitment to quality software.

[1] Any company that purchases at least 100 licenses and agrees to allow N-BRAIN, Inc. to publish a case study on the target product automatically qualifies for participation in the Quality Software Initiative.

[2] Eligibility to use the Developed with UNA mark depends on company using UNA at least 25% of the development time for at least 6 months, and randomly selected product developers passing an oral exam confirming developer's familiarity with UNA.
"UNA is a special platform... I usually hate group collab on code and design because the communication and miscommunication gets in the way. UNA is different because the collaboration is weirdly seamless and actually real-time - you all see the same things, you chat inline, code completion just works, everything is tracked, and never once does the group feature take precedence over just coding."

"He worked from his computer halfway across the country from me, and I worked from mine, and it was just as effective as if we had been in the same room... To me, this was unprecedented, since it cut coding time by at least half. We were able to check each other's code as it was being written, so debugging was no problem at all."
