Here are some quick answers -- you have a long list for a Saturday. I will take a crack at all and answer as best as I can. 1) Am I able to white-label rollbase on the hosted cloud for clients if i was an ISV? Yes, though for Private Cloud you obviously have a lot more control and capabilities related to hosting, routing and addressing. (See http://documentation.progress.com/output/rb/doc/index.html#page/rb/setup-and-administration-for-isvs.html) 2) Speed of the hosted cloud seem slow, is it hosted on rackspace or amazon? You are seeing the trial version hosted on Amazon. There are some differences in resources allocated to paid vs trial accounts, which might impact perceived speed. 3) Is there a developer community for rollbase that knows the application and can help with javascript programming etc? You found it. This is the most active community ( https://community.progress.com/community_groups/rollbase/) 4) How do i build mobile apps with Rollbase? I see that before on an older version of rollbase, there was the rollbase mobile app builder, however that does not exist anymore on the pacific menu? Is Telerik now used and does it come with the rollbase license package? or extra costs are involved? Rollbase recently updated the UI capabilities to be responsive and you can view on mobile devices and tablets. The separate abilitity to create Hybrid and Native Phone/Tablet applications is available in Telerik Platform. This is an extra cost. 5) I have viewed and tried out the apps on the marketplace, but is there any apps out there that are complex in nature with lots of triggers, custom code in both UI etc that I can sample to view the capability of rollbase? The tutorials and marketplace apps are the only publicly available apps that I know of. Some of these are rather complex and have the features you mention. 6) Does anyone have any details on the ISV program? Pricing, records, storage, users limits, etc? Here you would have to talk to sale. Your experience there may not have been too good, but you might want to try again. (I don't have any details you can't get off the website). 7) In order to use the private cloud, it is a minimum of $1000 per month? Is that correct? There is a minimum because it is a full multi-user platform. Again, talk to someone in sales. 8) Does the ability to use record type like salesforce exist? Each record type can have it's own view etc. Rollbase uses the term "object" for record types, and each Object has its own views for tabular and form input and display.
