ISV SaaSification

Offer SaaS-Like Access to Your Existing Windows Application

WebStream gives ISVs a practical pathway to deliver existing Windows applications through the browser without rebuilding the product from scratch.

Origin Story

From Datapel to WebStream

WebStream did not start as a streaming idea looking for a problem. It started with Datapel — a genuine on-premise inventory and warehouse management system, the kind of operational Windows software businesses run every day.

That product went through the exact journey ISVs face today: from a traditional installed Windows product, into a hybrid cloud and managed-access model, and ultimately into SaaS-like browser delivery without redeveloping the application. WebStream is the layer that made that possible — and it is now available for your product.
