Yes! I am helping a customer go live on Saturday with a new release of
Inrgres 11.2 and an ABF application that literally runs their business.
It's nationally important food wholesaler.

We have other customers running ABF in important areas of their
business. ABF just works.

That said, if you want something a bit more mobile-friendly or
graphical, that conserves the value of your Ingres database, we have
solutions.
