I’m not even sure what you call it, but I’d like to find a open source or hosted (software as a service) service solution to allow me to create simple web applications, primarily related to simple database and workflow systems. There seem to be several services in this space, with a variety of positions in the market.

• www.force.com
• www.sugarcrm.com
• www.viravis.com
• www.longjump.com
• www.appnowgo.com
• www.springbase.com
• Zoho Creator
• www.processmaker.com
• www.cuteflow.org
• www.intalio.com/bpms
• Clarifire

I’m excited to tinker with these and see what I can find that works well — any suggestions?
