R.A.D development tool for web applications linked to relational databases. I've been using PHPRunner for 3 years now and its the best code generator I have come across and believe me I have searched everywhere. It is MS Access for the web. Link it to your standard relational databases / MySQL / Postgres / SQL Server / MariaDB (I believe it works with Oracle as well although I only have experience of the former databases) and it will scaffold a complete application with login and full CRUD usability on all tables and views you point it at. You can leave it at that if you want but generally you will want to tidy it up (just like in MS Access). Code generated can be published anywhere. I've personally used it successfully with CPanel and MS Azure. Good for pretty much everyone from beginners through to professionals. For professional programmers it will scaffold the boiler plate stuff and then allow you to write "code behind" which is attached to events on buttons. The code behind will allow you to do anything fancy that you are capable of figuring out. The only real requirement is to know how to publish to a web host and know how to setup database users and passwords in your chosen relational database platform. For me personally its been a game changer. Pricing model for me just works - Initial investment and then lower amounts as an annual maintenance. Irrespective the product still works if you stop paying as do all built applications you just fail to get new versions to the IDE. You can create infinite number of applications that can be published to an infinite number of vanilla web hosts which will serve infinite customers provided you can figure out to pay for all the servers. I've personally found support to be good with any problems resulting from my own inability to understand what I'm being told rather than a lack of help
