DevInfo AcehInfo: A Friendly Data Base Software

Do you often work with data? Working with complicated data in relation with environmental issue? Poverty? Population? Waste disposal problem? Natural resources management? Human resources? GIS? Data base? I was really surprised by DevInfo data based software package. Devinfo is really friendly software, suitable for a user with little knowledge and skills on information technology (IT) software.


User can store, compile, compare and contrast all related data such as number, image, etc, with a wide range format of data. The data can be shown as a graph, table or map. Some Geographical Information System based maps could be edit as well before we use the map as a background for a full featured image based data. The final result of user works can be stored easily in word processing software or power point as a gallery or final report. This friendly data base software is free.

Devinfo is being widely used for many United Nations’ project. A volunteer staff of UN project told me that this software is being used in 91 countries. For example, MaldiveInfo for government planning in Maldives, IRAQ, INDIA, Education for all initiative, UN Habitat, Gender Info, etc.

What DevInfo package I used is AcehInfo, a package software provided by UNORC to assist the government of Aceh province on data management. I recommend NGO, private company, student and public servant in Aceh to used AcehInfo. Go to training page of DevInfo's site to learn more
