Several CASE tools are available: AllFusion Plex ( see * Plex Wiki ), Accelerator for IBM i, ADELIA, Synon, AS / SET, IBM Rational Business Developer Extension, LANSA, ProGen Plus and GeneXus.

Synon was a software company which, at its height, dominated the worldwide market for third-party application development tools for the IBM System i ( formerly AS / 400 ) platform.

Synon Ltd was founded in London in 1984 by Simon Williams ( CEO ), Melinda Horton ( COO ) and Nick Knowles ( CTO ) with the objective of developing an application generator for the IBM System / 38 platform.

Synon's first product was Synon / 1, a programming productivity toolkit for the System / 38, launched in 1985.

Synon's flagship product, Synon / 2 was launched in 1986 and became an immediate success with System / 38 users.

* In 1987, Synon played a key role alongside IBM at the UK launch of its AS / 400 platform.

The AS / 400 version of Synon / 2 was named Synon / 2E.

* In 1989, Synon, along with Bachman, Intersolv, KnowledgeWare and Systematica, was chosen by IBM to be at the heart of AD / Cycle, its framework for application development and CASE.

* In 1991, Synon launched Synon Model Applications, an accounting package developed using Synon / 2E.

* In 1992, Simon Williams, believing that the company was in danger of missing the client / server technology wave, left Synon together with Melinda Horton to establish Dysys, a self-funded UK start-up whose object was to develop a client / server, cross-platform successor to Synon / 2E.

Sterling continued to distribute and support Synon / 2E and Obsydian as COOL: 2E and COOL: Plex.

Synon / 2 was also ahead of its time by adopting a strictly object oriented approach to the programs that it generated.

Obsydian ( now CA Plex ) follows the same general principles as Synon / 2, with the important exception that developers can create and re-use their own abstract design templates.

Synon pioneered what is now sometimes called Architected Rapid Application Development ( ARAD ).

* In 2000, Sterling was acquired by Computer Associates ( now CA ), which continues to distribute and develop Synon / 2E and Obsydian as CA 2E and CA Plex.

As a condition of the transaction, Synon moved its HQ to Larkspur and became a Delaware corporation, changing its name to Synon Corporation.

Synon kept precise productivity metrics during the internal development of its SMA accounting system.

The same year, Chris Herron, formerly CEO of Fusion, along with Patrick Batty of Toronto, and Gerard Wolf of Chicago, set up Synon Inc, Synon's US sales and marketing subsidiary, in Larkspur, California.

Synon also established a worldwide distribution channel with subsidiaries in France, Germany, Australia, Hong Kong and Japan.

IBM later acquired an equity stake in Synon.

In 1993 Williams and Horton sold Dysys to Synon, and returned to the fold.

Their new product, Obsydian, was launched by Synon in 1994.

* In 1998, Synon was acquired by Sterling Software of Plano, Texas.

La Crosse Management Systems of La Crosse, Wisconsin acquired Synon Model Applications from Sterling and continues to distribute it as La Crosse Financials.
