I nearly used Delphi for over a decade; I started with Pascal and then transitioned to Delphi 2. In all my years on Delphi, I loved the fast way to develop powerful applications with the most advanced interface. I used the Oracle database to make complex security software. A few years later, I created several applications to develop and manage Oracle, Mysql and PostgreSQL.
In our company, we made the DreamCoder for Mysql, DreamCoder for Oracle and DreamCoder for PostgreSQL, all in Delphi.
Then we made the Alchemist code Generator that was multi-database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I found two downsides to using delphi; the most important was the price; this application was costly without any kind of partner program.
The second downside was how this application was growing, I think it was very big and heavy on the last version that I used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
