Use Cases and Deployment Scope

FoxPro is used to develop a plug-in for our stock management software.

Pros

Treat data from files
Reporting

Cons

error handling
User interface

Likelihood to Recommend

FoxPro is good for data manipulation from files.
It is easy to generate/design reports of those data.

Return on Investment

We are using FoxPro because that is the only way to add custom plugins in the software we use to manage our stock.
So, FoxPro is suitable for this need.
We are developing software in c# .NET, compared to this, FoxPro is clearly out-dated.

Alternatives Considered

borland c++ builder, c# .net, c++ and Visual Studio

We are only using FoxPro because it is the only way to add custom plugins into the software we use to manage our stock. FoxPro is a semi-oriented object language and should clearly not be compared with recent technologies.
