Testimonials
MDT gives us a powerful, modern IDE and all the comforts and efficiencies that come along with it, as for example the very powerful debugger, seamless Subversion and GIT integration, and very efficient file search and code analysis. With MDT, we have everything we need in one place.

MDT has proven to be a very efficient development environment for the GE Smallworld applications.
The multitude of tools available in MDT, both Smallworld specific and Eclipse plug-ins, results in a single IDE that covers all aspects of Smallworld application development and support. I have been using MDT since it was first released and find it to be the most comprehensive development environment currently available for GE Smallworld products.
