Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Access
Without being too specific:
Account Management
Space Management
Contract Personnel
Budgeting
Asset Management
*General usage. I use it for various purposes. Organizing server logs, creating historical reporting, data collection, etc...I work for [government] contracts, and Access is widely used, not only by the [governant] but internally by our company.
Problems are more hearsay than reality. Often people speak badly about the product, yet turn to me to either build or support.

- Customization
- Lots of YouTube support. :)
- Integration with Sharepoint
- Generally not a separate purchase as it is apart of MS Office
- Not usable on iOS
- Microsoft has a good support library, but should incorporate training videos
- Positive in that our company has not had to find external support.
- Positive because now it's all about saving money and Access is on clients' computers. Just a matter of getting them to use it.
- Access does more and is more accepted by customers than in years past.
Access is best for a medium to small database size. It holds its own there. If you are looking at larger, more complex needs, then it should be overlooked.
