You should also look at CA-Ingres for NT. Call 1-800-DIAL-CAI for info and to get in contact with your local office. When it comes time to buy, CA won't be undersold.

Should a long time Paradox user give these products a try? Maybe. My guess is that if you are a long time user then Paradox solves your problems for you already. Products like CA-Ingres and Oracle really aim at a different kind of market, and may not solve Paradox-size problems well.
