What do you like best about Windev?
- Free in house DB (HFSQL) with automatic schema modification... No 'alter table' management here
- Extremely easy switch between DBs when needed. If you use correctly the internal tools, code is basically compatible with ANY DB out here.
- wlanguage available in french and english, extremely powerful, always improving, and capable of maintaining a code base for more than 25 years
- easy to use UI with tons of tools
- Code is the same for WinDev, WebDev and Windev Mobile, making it extremely easy to build applications with windows, mobile and web components, all using the same language
- Speed of development: be aware that the product is extremely rich, with very often 3 or 4 different ways of doing the same thing. This makes for a very steep learning curve, -IF- you want to really master it and get all of its benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Windev?
- SCM (Source code management system, 'like' github) is buggy, slow and barely usable
- Marketing system used to sell it is sexist, gives a bad image to the tool, and makes it harder to 'sell' using it to some companies
- PCSoft still refuses to manage a public bug/correction list Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Windev?
As a software developer, Windev is fast and easy to use with most common databases, Windev facilitates designing the UI with all the properties and has a user-friendly interface, the coding language itself is easy too and is similar to English and French. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Windev?
The price is a bit high for an individual software developer, it is recommended for companies only, and you should not pay for each update as it should be a one-time payment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Windev?
There is a vast amount of user controls that gives developers a variety of options to select from when creating application pages.
