Omnis, from the European based Blyth Software, is an easy to use multiuser relational database for Windows, MacOS, and OS/2. It was the first database ported to Microsoft Windows, which ran on Windows 1.0x.
It started out on the Apple Macintosh, where its prominent feature was a graphical oriented system that integrated with the underlying database. However, on the PC platform, its reliance on Microsoft Windows hurt it, as few people had Windows 1 or 2, and most PC database products of the time only required MS-DOS.
Omnis 5 is a GUI database product for Windows 2.x. It features a GUI builder for data, forms, and reports and includes CL/1 database server connectivity.
Version 5 is a follow up to the earlier Omnis Quartz product, which was for Windows 1.0x, and Omnis 3 for Macintosh. Omnis 5 was also available for the Macintosh and OS/2.
