I don't know who you consider to be SBT's biggest competition but I can tell you that AccountMate has a C/S version and even an AS/400 version. Worth a look if you are looking at accounting software written in VFP.

My two cents.

I once tried running a FoxPro application over a 56K leased line connection. This is totally impractical. I'd love to hear from anyone who's running FoxPro over a WAN and is satisfied with the performance.

>>A couple of months ago I attended a class at SBT Accounting (a large software company using Foxpro) were the class was told that they (SBT) had used a sniffer to compare C/S and foxpro net traffic and they discovered that C/S reduces traffic by (at best) 10% and only if the program is using very large databases. I don't have more information but I bet SBT can be contacted.
