RemoteApp and Bandwidth Usage

Even if they decide against web-based for whatever reason (there are VERY few where a C# client, for example, would be beneficial unless they are doing crazy amounts of multi-threaded heavy processing on the client) since you lose flexibility, increase cost and lost cross platform support - you still design modern systems with light calls between the client and the server. If SQL calls are crossing the client-server connection then you have a massive design failure even bigger going back decades to where that was even remotely considered and acceptable design practice for newbie developers.
In the case of this application (Epicor), they made some big steps to just take out the Progress layer that was there even if you had a SQL back end. I'll take that for now.

Sounds like some seriously weak software from all descriptions. Have you guys looked at anything from this millennium? You might have your mind blown by how modern software works in this space. Running 90s software for a core function has to be really painful.
