Working with Progress Openedge software products since 2006.
What do you like best about the product?
Its an all in one package where you can use Openedge database with 4gl programming to create/build your application. The Openedge RDBMS provides excellent performance and is easier to manage.
The RDBMS is as comparable to Oracle database as I worked on both.
The Progerss 4gl programming language is easier to learn and can be used to develop real world financial and manufacturing application.

What do you dislike about the product?
The Openedge RDBMS although comparable to Oracle didn't get its desired market share and still is a niche technology.
In terms of technology Progress took time to make OpenEdge database product to be at par with Oracle RDBMS.

If you want to stay in South India, opportunity are there but not in north
What do you like best about the product?
Not much competition, you might get the package you ask
What do you dislike about the product?
Not many opportunities are there, many are working on outdated versions.
People don't make use of Progress the way it should be. After a while you might feel you're doing a monotonous job as there are many companies who are not using WebSpeed though you might get WebServices to be used in few companies

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have normally worked on code that needs queries like for each or find first only, but sometimes got chance to get used to WebServices but it was like most of code is already present and I need to make use of that same approach, nothing new
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Progress Openedge for Truckers
What do you like best about the product?
Openedge in itself is a complete package. You can build a fully functional application with JUST the openedge. It works well with the other technologies, In one of the scenarios, we wanted to imtegrate the google calender in out application itself, So that the drivers are able to view/update/delete their appointments easily from the application itself. They do not have to log in to there google account to do so. Initially we thought this is going to be a complicated task, but after some research it came out to be a farily simple task. And the drivers appriciated this solution as it turned out to be a time saver and effecient solution for them.
What do you dislike about the product?
The integration with other technologies should be a bit smooth. That beging said, it does not mean that you can not integrate it with other technologies. Its just that it requires more efforts as compared to its counterparts, e.g Oracle SQL etc..
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently we are working on a trucking solution, which involves right from order entry to order dispatch, transit and delivery modules.
As a benefit, The openedge is able to query the huge amount of data in less time. It is pretty much robust.

What do you like best about the product?
4GL and aeasy to code and can develop products easily. It was the very first languag that I enterned the carrier as a software engineer and it has helped me to master the basics and to learn more advanced coding techniques with Openedge. OpenEdge is a powerful framework for building CRUD application. The core ABL (OpenEdge language) is different enough a language from the mainstream to be interesting for an inquisitive programmer and for your bosses arguments for everyone to understand where the others are coming from to make sense. It is never a bad idea to learn new (and different!) languages. It keeps the mind working and teaches you concepts that might not be available in your language.
