Every app has to start somewhere and will after a while be outdated. Whatever problems EPIC has are most likely not because of VB but because of bad management.

Every app has to start somewhere and will after a while be outdated. Whatever problems EPIC has are most likely not because of VB but because of bad management. I work in medical and I see almost every day management decisions that will lead to future software problems but nobody in leadership understands or wants to understand. Have a problem? Just throw the cheapest offshore team you can find at it. Repeat that a few times and you have a completely incoherent architecture. You will get this result with any stack. I certain wouldn’t advocate using VB for new code. All I am saying is that the real problem is not the stack.
