Hi, I am expert developer with 15+ years of experience in Delphi ranging from D3 to Delphi Seattle, I also worked on multiplatform solutions where back server is in Delphi on Windows and clients are web based, windows, Android or iOS. For your particular case since your app is in D7 first I would suggest to convert it to some of latest Delphi version, hardest part there is handling change from AnsiString to Unicode, depending on complexity of your app it could be easy solution or complex. From there second step is to make your as a service (server) capable of handling multiple clients one of which would be web based app that would be written. This is just a rough sketch, better suggestion I could give after I have enough details of your current system and where you want to take it.

Hello, We are a team of software engineers with 6+ years of experience in professional software development. We would create the web application in Php/MySQL. We have had experience in both Delphi and developing web applications supporting different user authorization levels, as well as analyzing existing old software and recreating it with a new and modernized look and feel. We would have to discuss all the requirements in full detail and test and study the existing software ourselves (if possible) in order to provide final price and time frame estimates. Let me know if you are interested, we will discuss the details. Regards, Filip CodeStream

Good morning, I'm a Delphi developer and I still use Delphi 7 to maintain our erp. During the years I've been facing similar problems you have about your application. About multi user environment we decided to switch to terminal services (RDP). With a limited cost we can assure dozens of seats working simultaneously with our windows application installed in one server (which can be even windows xp, no problems). We gave our app a modern look using third part libraries like devexpress and tms. We used a freeware web framework for delphi 7 to create some windows services which publish html5 pages at which users can access to input data to our erp in specific functions. As the first step, though, I would migrate to a better database, depending on how the actual application is structured. If you're interested in further details, don't hesitate to contact me. Best regards, Augusto Pellis

Hi, I enjoyed Delphi 10 years ago as it's quote old language. I suggest to build the web application on PHP + MySQL as it's light and fast. Looking forward to discuss further. Thanks.

Hi, I'm a Delphi developer with more than 30 years of experience (yes, since the time it was first introduced as Borland's Turbo Pascal). The past 20 years I worked (full-time, in-situ) for two international organizations; the IATTC, in San Diego, CA, USA, and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, in Victoria, Seychelles. I'm currently retired, but I'm doing some freelancing to stay busy, and up-to-date in the area. In addition to Delphi, I have extensive experience designing and implementing database using several well known DBMS (MS SQL Server, MS Access, MySQL, Firebird, Postgre SQL, Oracle, etc). Converting a Delphi 7 application to a web application, which is what I understand you want to do, amounts to basically re-writing the whole application. We could reuse much of the Delphi 7 code, if we stick to Borland's (now Embaracdero's) technology (which is what I would recommend initiatlly without having more information. Another option, assuming the application is not heavily UI based, could be to put existing code in a library, and used it from there. Also there's the approach of re-wrting the whole application in something like ASP.NET. The best approach requires more information and discussion with you. My offer is for 3 months of full time work on your project, which in my experience would be enough to get you the results you want. If you think you may be interested in my services, please send me a PM, so we can discuss further.

Thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself and offer you my services. I have 20 years Delphi development experience. While my practical experience with web applications is relatively limited, my vast experience with Delphi puts me at advantage in giving me the ability to understand the existing code. It is likely the application of that age will not be easily converted to a web application without significant reworking. In fact it is likely that it will be better to rewrite the application, using the existing code as a reference. In my opinion it would be best to rewrite the software in another platform. My suggestion would be to use Microsoft technologies such as ASP.net using c# and visual studio. Not knowing the complexity of the application, it is difficult to give a firm price. I will therefore amend the price once I know further details of the system to be converted. I look forward to corresponding with you further regarding this job. Regards, Kevin Day.
