    Microsoft Application Server has been incredible this past year during COVID. Previously I would have said that we could go without it, but after this past season, I’m glad we have utilized it. Without having this software set up prior to COVID, we would have been in a tough situation. I mention COVID a lot because we were able to continue our work almost seamlessly this entire year.

    • Some security hotfixes and general release updates require restarts.
    • We wish it supported more applications out of the box.
    • Thin client support would be great for MS Application Server.

    I have found Microsoft Application Server to be incredibly easy to use. I have used dozens of similar programs and have always struggled to navigate through all the functions. So far I have been able to adapt and learn this software with ease. I rarely run into a problem that I wasn’t easily able to move forward on with a few tips.

    Stability is one of the first things we consider when evaluating software. MS Application Server has been rock solid and has reduced the time that our IT staff dedicates to maintaining our legacy applications.

    Rather than searching for each library on GitHub, Kandi organizes it and produces the best libraries of a language and new libraries added to it regularly.

    It has a similar feature to what Microsoft Application Server has but at a greater cost and also having to deal with another vendor when we could use a full Microsoft Stack for better training and support.

    • Our ROI has been great since it has enabled our IT staff to have a central location to perform application updates which enables us to save time and money.
    • Deployment is very easy since the internal applications that required constant updating are now updated in one central location.
    • It's a lot easier to be within compliance protocols requirements.
