Mediscor, a long-standing Progress user of 20+ years, recently had this to say:

“Progress OpenEdge provides comprehensive support and intuitive tools that can empower someone to begin their coding journey at 40 and still find it enjoyable 20 years later. Its robustness and reliability have made Progress OpenEdge a critical and strategic asset in our healthcare business.

OpenEdge enables rapid screen development through its app designer and UIB, while offering a simple-to-learn language. The OE database is highly reliable, requiring minimal maintenance, and the Data Administration tool simplifies database management. Features like online backups and after-imaging ensure minimal data loss during recovery, while its transaction management system preserves data integrity even in the event of connection disruptions or program crashes. Additionally, the database is cross-platform compatible.”
