RAD Choice Info

Hello, My name is Larry Hall. I am part of a company developing a business management product to be deployed on the internet, or possibly an intranet in some situations. To decrease the time-to-market we are searching for a rapid application development tool suited for this environment ' that is, basically 3-tier, or n-tier, thin client, scaleable to potentially high volume, etc. I have done quite a bit of research the last few weeks, looking at 'marketing hype,' white papers, demos, and a few trial versions. What I would like now, from anyone willing to offer it, is some honest feedback from actual end-users who are working with either the new web-enabled versions of the various RADs, or a recent predecessor. Which product/version are you familiar with? Do you like the product architecture? Does 'rapid development' truly apply? Is the product stable? Does the company support it well? Would you choose it over other products you are now familiar with? Etc. Thanks in advance to all of you willing to help me fill in this aspect of my research. Larry Hall mailto:lmhall@texas.net
