    If you do move away from Access to an online solution, check out Zoho Creator as an alternative to Sharepoint.

    Thats a very idealistic viewpoint. But I can't say I've met that very often. Usually its the result of some business/power user with no development background. A developer is most like to use the newest most high end solution, rather belt and braces.

    How is it idealistic? It's based on my experience.

    Wrong. A developer should seek to use the best solution, based upon both budget and requirements and this is actually unlikely to be "the newest most high end solution".

    If they're pushing principally for "the newest most high end solution", then - unless it is also the best solution, based upon both budget and requirements - they're doing so so they can gauge more money from the client and/or wish to pad out their CV's.

    I don't disagree. That just my experience in general.
