I gave Delphi a shot, but after setting up my account I got a few phone calls a few days later about it to sell me on it. I was genuinely surprised companies still did that in 2024/2025.
- egorfine 2mo agoIf you tried a 2005 technology, don't be surprised with 2005 customer service.
- morkalork 2mo agoThat almost sounds nice nowadays
- lelanthran 2mo agoI wish we had 2005 levels of customer service.
- rsynnott 2mo ago2005?! Delphi is from the 90s!
- pjmlp 2mo agoDelphi is from 1995.
- shimonabi 2mo agoIt's 90's tech. Their business model is selling expensive subscriptions to keep legacy projects alive. I was at one of the conferences in my country and the average age of a developer was about 60.
- tonyedgecombe 2mo agoAlthough it was dirt cheap in the nineties.
- cestith 2mo agoThere’s always FPC and Lazarus if you don’t want to mess with proprietary Embacadero stuff. It’s not 100% the same, but it’s a pretty good equivalent that uses the same programming language (Object Pascal), has a UI builder, and all that. It also supports more platforms and even embedded development.
