They offer 3 platforms;

WinDev - Standalone apps, Windows, Linux, 32/64 bit. No end-user royalties at all regardless of number of users or servers they connect to. You can also use the free built in database engine called HyperFile and distribute that as well, which is like VFP's internal database but with all limitations/problems solved i.e. greater than 2GB files, memo field indexing, etc. etc. And/or you can connect to 3rd party databases. This also includes their report writer which can be included for your users. See this online brochure specifically page 4 iro royalty free with the FAQ: http://www.windev.com/windev/ebook/index.html#/4/

WinDev Mobile - Mobile app development using the exact same IDE and language ready for Android, Windows Phone 7, Windows CE, Windows Mobile. Applications are royalty free. http://www.windev.com/windevmobile/ebook/index.html#/2/

WebDev - Web site development using the same IDE and language as above but targeted for web development. This can produce different types of website, static or dynamic, depending on whether the pages use data from a database or not. This is Web 2.0 ready and you can include code from other languages, PHP, etc. (also possible in WinDev above btw). Will translate WinDev code to Ajax, JavaScript, etc. behind the scenes. You don't need to do it. In fact you can create pure PHP websites with WebDev - it creates the PHP code for you. For this there is a server license called WebDev application server which you must buy to allow more than 10 concurrent users to connect (which is the free version). This extra costs US$393 per server and allows unlimited users to that server.

There is also a translation tool for multilingual usage which costs extra at US$800 + US$200.

Everything is on their website including pricing http://www.windev.com/. Their online animated brochures are developed in WebDev. PC Soft have been going for 25 years.
