I have been using Alpha Software Products since 1991, and found them to be superior in both ease of use, and as a platform for building complex enduser applications. In March of 2002 I had the opportunity to attend the Alpha Software Developers Conference in Burlington Massachusetts.
At the conference we were provided with demonstrations of Alpha 5 v. 5 which was then in Beta. I was truly amazed by the dramatic extent of the enhancements to the already powerful earlier versions.
My clients expect me to deliver sophisticated applications with very little development time. Version 5 provides me with the tools I need to keep them happy, yet it is even easier to use than previous versions.
Upon my return from Massachusetts, I began converting 2 projects in progress to version 5 and , I and my clients immediately began to reap the benefits of the "new and improved" Alpha 5.
