ANONYMOUS The latest version (8.1.0) is blazing fast. We develop and host solutions for some of the UK's largest blue chips. We could not get products to market as fast and as cost effectively without Lasso. With the release 8.1 it can now compete with PHP and ASP on performance grounds as well. Fantastic!!! (Version 8.1)
ANONYMOUS If you're a web developer and have never checked out Lasso, do yourself a favor and download one of their 30-day trials, or at least check out the online language reference at . It's available for Mac, Win, and Lin, and can connect to a wide variety of data sources. The core language is easy to learn yet very full featured. If I had to go back to any of the other web middleware languages I used to use, I think I'd just switch careers instead. (Version 7.1.3)
NICK DRING In my experience I've found the Fm Pro/Lasso solution an inexpensive, powerful and easy solution for those people wanting implement a database into their website. Especially for those companies who have used FM for a long time within and now wish to web enable their database. (Version 7.0)
ANONYMOUS Put simply with Lasso v5 I can produce products that compete with anything else on the market ... and still host all of our sites on WebSTAR Mac servers ..... it beats PHP and ASP into the ground ..... a fantastic product (Version 5.0)
