Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Access

For a long time, we used Microsoft Access [for] many [in-house] applications from engineering requests to IT Assets[,] etc. Over time, we migrated many of [these applications] to MS SQL server or the cloud. However, we continue to use MS Access with ODCB Data as MS Access provide[s] a quick way to build fully functional applications with the least amount of effort.
  • Quickly build forms and reports
  • Easy user interface with familiar tools
  • Least amount of programming
  • Multi-user support
  • Useful features are often removed from newer versions
  • Rapid application development
  • Easy to create [high-quality] reports
  • Easy to create [high-quality] forms
  • Takes less time to build applications
