| Vice President Strategic Development at a hospitality company with 1-10 employees | 4.5 | I find this solution to be an extremely stable, scalable, and highly customizable middleware for real-time dynamic loyalty offers at various purchase points. Setup is straightforward, and support is excellent. My only concern is customer unfamiliarity with its embedded nature. |
| Project Manager at Galeos | 4.5 | As a project manager, I find this relational database very stable, scalable, and easy to administer, with excellent 24/7 support. Its PoA licensing is valuable, but I'd like to see advanced security and better high availability. |
| Principle consultant at Active Data Consulting Services Pty Ltd | 4.5 | I've used Progress OpenEdge for nearly 20 years, finding it robust, scalable, and great for rapid development, saving significant costs. Installation can be confusing, and the Windows Character Client needs improvement, but I highly recommend it. |
