Omnis 5

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.
