Agreed -- we have D3 users and UniData users and UniVerse users ... I'm not sure that part of UniData is 'Time Warped' -- we've seen a ton of new features built in during the last few years, while D3 chugs along, they've only produced 3rd level point revisions in the last 2 years! Wow. It does make their maintenance seem high! I'm getting the same feedback from my customers.
The only thing D3 has that I miss in UniData is Case Insensitivity everywhere. Gosh that was nice. Gosh that was a nightmare. Gosh that was nice. .... And while UniVerse may be slightly more compatible with D3, UniVerse is slightly more complex to administrer than UniData in my experience. Not as much once you know all the edges, but there are more edges in UniVerse for sure! (No flame wars needed or intended!) Bill - Welcome your customer to U2 land!!
