I compare this company to the Dilbert strip in which its revealed Dilbert's company has been intentionally issuing broken software so they can make their money off selling upgrades for 'fixes' and selling support calls.Īs long as Geoff remains the person in charge this company will still retain its distinction of having a larger group of pissed off former users than current users. These half-baked so called features add more bugs to Xojo when the company should be concentrating on instead of fixing the previous bugs. The Modus operandi of this company is to introduce so called innovations in an effort to continually lure in new buyers who do not know about the long term history of the company. Nearly every single project built with this product uses 'dim' to imitate a variable yet the company now changes it to 'var' under the guise of helping you and because other languages use it. The newer version of Xojo with unfinished API 2.0 is not useful as I am not going to rewrite all my projects to conform to the new API. Then downloading a older copy that uses API 1.0 but which will work with the third party add-on. To use this 3rd party add-on now requires buying Xojo all over again. Geoff must think everyone just picks up bushel baskets of money growing from trees in their yard. Xojo and the 3rd party of course didn't bother to mention that in the first place. The 3rd party publisher has already abandoned supporting versions of Xojo using API 1.0 thus it will not be fixed.

Already a 3rd party add-on I purchased directly from the company's website does not work with my version of Xojo even though the product says it works with API 1.0. Once again the company is trying to rebrand its product by coming out with API 2.0 under the guise of helping it users. They also change what is included in each version so while you may have purchased what was considered 'pro' before its now no longer 'pro' and they now expect you to hand over even more money.

Prior to this if you owned an earlier version you could pay a upgrade fee, but now they expect you to buy the product again by paying the full price over again. I stop upgrading the product after they announced a sale of upgrades and then announced new pricing which did away with upgrades. That speaks volumes and blame lies with the guy that runs the company - Geoff Perlman. The product is now nearly 25 years old yet it remains a insignificant programming language with few users. The current TIOBE list of the most popular programming languages currently lists 150 products and Xojo is not found there. These rebranding were design to distance themselves from their past misdeeds and reputation of the product. Years later the company rebranded the product Real Studio. The company now called Xojo purchased CrossBasic and rebranded is RealBasic. The product was invented by a third party under the name of CrossBasic.
