Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Access

Microsoft Access is used by one of my clients to manage a simple ticketing system. Each user who manages the practice tracks daily the motivations of the call, the current state of practice, and progress of this ticket passing between multiple and different states of analysis.
  • Management of data between related tables
  • Development of simple and essential masks
  • User side masks are easy to use
  • it is now an old-fashioned rdbms
  • a bit cumbersome to handle
  • limited functions
  • If you want to implement a solution in Microsoft Access the cost is certainly reduced
  • Fast implementations for not complex environments
  • Easy management of masks as long as expectations are low
I sincerely do not recommend Access except to begin to take a minimum of confidence with an RDBMS. Since it's an old system, I would not develop it in business circles, but it is often present in companies that have started with this system and have not yet migrated to more complex systems.
