[AccessD] Interesting Access article

[Jim Lawrence]

Thanks for the info, I will check it out.

After a quick perusal, these apps do seem like the next generation of (I wouldn't call them database apps) but information gathering apps. There are some entrance level stuff for free but I would expect to pay $10 to $40 per month, indefinitely, per licensed user.

Have you had any first hand experience with the products? Any stand-alone programs to demonstrate it's use?

Jim

Yes.   Power Apps, Power BI, and Flow is where things are heading from the looks of it.

 They don't talk about much else lately.

I don't know? I have been a little out of the loop as of late.

Isn’t PowerBI or PowerApps what MS is trying to push people to?

A complete disaster. As the DBA site virtual was still using ASP, it may have been the logical weak spot in the entire network...I will be speaking to him tonight, along with some of us old geek friends, over a cup of coffee.
