"Delphi is the language for developers that want to be proficient in providing a quality product."
Delphi is an object implementation that is clean compared to C++, Java, or Python. Makes for easy clear reading and new development.

What do you like best about Delphi?

Very effective Wysiwyg RAD IDE tool for windows. Modern OO language with strongly typed variables. Very easy to understand and use can create a good applications in short time even for many platforms : Windows, macOS, iOS, Android. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Delphi?

Very changing and non coherent commercial policy :

1/ Prices are rising and rising and rising:

XE2 pro update price in 2011 : 500 euros with mobile dev. library.

XE10 pro update price in 2017 : 1730 euros without mobile dev. library.

2/ With "pro" licenc you don't have Client server database connectivity.

3/ Even with the new 'starte' free edition prices are not OK for beginners so 'No new blood '. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Delphi:

Just try the free starter edition so considere to by the pro & C/S option for the development because it is a complete IDE and easy to use for targeting Windows, mobile dev Option for other plateforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Delphi solving and how is that benefiting you?

Create software products sold to clients. Mainly with Delphi XE2. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Delphi?

The natural step it is to develop from a PASCAL user to a Borland Delphi User to this, the User Interface is easy to understand and pretty much like other product from embarcadero . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Delphi?

When compilling is really slow , but only the first time, after that everything worked fine. For new user there is not much documentation avalible .

Working whit PHP is not that aggile than other tecnologies and not many frameworks from external developers to use . Better Grids. Better integration with Web Services Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Delphi:

Better integration with Oracle

More documentation for begginers

more examples of migration of .pas files Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Delphi solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use this IDE to design a new version of a old software for conecting PLC and controlling the batch of our main product in plant. Basicly we migrate from PASCAL to Delphi and create a User interface because the first version of the software doesn't have any. It was the natural step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Delphi?

Very powerful development tool that can be used to create applications that run on a variety of platforms. Generates code that uses the device's native instruction set rather than requiring a run-time VM interpreter or converter (to convert byte code to CPU instructions). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Delphi?

The quality of Delphi itself suffered for several years but has improved tremendously with recent releases and Embarcadero is committed to continuing that trend. As an example, they're doing a better job of releasing updates/fixes for previous versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Delphi:

If you're looking for a development tool that can be used to create applications for multiple platforms (devices and operating systems) without creating and maintaining multiple versions of the same application, give Delphi a trial run. A single project with a single set of soure code can be built for five different platforms (Win32, Win64, OSX, iOS, and Android). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Delphi solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creating software applications that are sold as well as applications that are used internally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
