As a leader of a development team writing highly visible, business critical software in the global market, I have found our choice to use components from ComponentOne Studio Enterprise successful and rewarding. Our users expect a high degree of professionalism in their software and need any issues resolved in a timely manner. This means that we absolutely must be able to depend on your third party suppliers for their support and cooperation. In the real world, you can never find third party software that completely meets and is 100% free of issues. The large selection of components within the product has given us (a) a wide selection of components to meet the various needs, (b) a single stop shop for support and (c) enabled us to lower our TCO by purchasing from a single vendor. The few issues we have found in using the applications were dealt with a friendly and professional manner. We were able to build a good relationship with the support personnel that enabled us to adequately describe the problem, duplicate the issue within their support environment, and see the required modifications scheduled into their development pipeline. From my perspective you need to seriously considered ComponentOne Studio Enterprise if you are deciding on third party components. Peter
