It is designed for flexible, on-the-fly data modeling, comprehensive search, report generation, object relationship management, and built-in access controls. The platform is also enables business process-based relationships to data such as related activity management, email, calendaring, and record ownership. And with its built-in policy engine, LongJump allows you to create actionable rules that automatically run based on conditions and criteria you define.

You can add users, change their access and sharing permissions, define new data models, import data, perform mass update and delete functions. You can quickly drag-and-drop your way into creating comprehensive data models, add or change fields, even creating data policies and validations.
Your team can also access the database within LongJump as a user to log activity data, run reports and much more.
