Result of the 2011 Oracle Forms poll - part 6

Question 5: What did you think about the future of Oracle Forms?

That was not a question with an easy Yes or No. But 70% of all answers gave positive feedback.

Some answers were extreme positive or negative: For example: "More stable that all java-frameworks", "Forms Web is bad, as Client/Server full of grandeur", "There are no clever alternatives" or "Forms will die, whatever we do in the next 5, 10 or 20 years".

In most answers they repeated the appeal to Oracle, to develop Forms further: "It must be more done for Forms! Then we have a future", "Forms is our most important development-tool for dialog-programs and we hope, that Oracle will maintain it for a long time".

In many cases they said, that Oracle Forms is the most productive development environment for Oracle Databases: "In our opinion we think, that there is no other product, were you can develop in comparable time such a good output"
