[comp.databases] Any negative experiences with PROGRESS?

hargrove@harlie.sgi.com (Mark Hargrove) (06/24/89)

We are in the final selection stages of an application package that is 
written entirely in Progress 4GL.  The application meets all of our 
requirements.  Has anybody had any NEGATIVE experiences with Progress?
I'm interested in any problems with the DB, the 4GL, technical support
from the company, attitude problems in the company, etc.   This is an 
important application for us, and we need to make a (mostly) right 
decision.  We had loads of talks with Progress directly, but you folks out
there that both USE the product and READ netnews are the ones I'm 
interested in hearing from.  Please email; I'll summarize responses to the 
net.

Thanks!
