Improvements seen by moving from MS Access to MS SQL-based web app
-
Data accessibility – Reduce remote user access hurdles (removes VPN, Remote Desktop).
-
Maintenance – Reduce issues that can arise from running an MS Access application in a non-homogenous computing environment (i.e. different version of Windows and Office, Macs and PCs, etc.) such as reference conflicts and outdated libraries.
-
Scalability – MS Access is not designed for enterprise-level applications or large amounts of data. It has a file size limitation of 2GB. MS SQL is designed for significantly larger applications.
-
User Experience – As an MS Office-based desktop application, MS Access cannot always leverage features many users have grown accustomed to with modern Web applications (e.g. friendlier user interface, mobile responsiveness).
