Migration Away from Windev - LANSA
March 23, 2025 05:48PM
Afternoon all,

In light of the current Windev situation, we are also looking at alternatives. Yes it is an unfortunate, but we have to be pragmatic.

I have been looking at LANSA. It looks OK.

Has anybody else seen it / used it / binned it as being too much to move to?

Thanks for input,

Mike

Hi
I can't see any pricing on Visual LANSA? Anyone know what it costs, runtime costs etc?

Of course you won't see the price. It's IBM. Modernizing AS/400 applications should tell you the price.>grinning smiley<

Hello Mike,

I contacted the Australian Lansa branch and was quoted between A$8,000 to A$10,000 as the initial buy in for Visual Lansa and subscription fees around A$1,600 per year so the cost must depend on the components you require and the country of origin.
If you keep your dongle, the initial buy in for SaaS is A$3,600

For Visual Lansa, the yearly fee is less than Windev on it's own A$1,830 and way less than Windev + Webdev +Mobile A$3,888. I am using the regular PCSoft monthly ransom fees after the end of this month so maybe it could be an affordable solution and worth pursuing further.


Regards
Al

have you seen lianja

[www.lianja.com]

it is quite powerfull and targetted at small developers I quess They talk a bout 10 concurrent users etc ( that is very little users ) but Iam not sure what it all means. They seem to target the people that had a microsoft visual foxpro developmetn. but javascript can be used for scripting very visual . You can even develop simple things without any code


regards
