Looking for .NET apps

Our company is moving to .NET very rapidly. Can anyone point me
towards some .NET commercial software applications? I know of a few
really good ones (Databeacon's upcoming reportingware, Riverdeep's
Print Shop, Citrix MetaFrame Access Suite). Our mandate is to use all
..NET applications for general business operations and management.
What other packages should I be looking at?

I do not know of many "general business operations and management" packages
that have been released there were written entirely in .NET. It is possible
that Great Plains may be working on a new set of code that uses .NET, but I
don't know if or when such a bird would be available.

If you have something that works, why change it ?

Given time, I would expect a version of MS Office to appear that is written
in managed code, but if you had millions of lines of working code, complete
with unit testing code, and you had to move it from one language to another,
you would do it in chunks... not all at once. This is the right thing to
do.

Be patient.

JAMS is an enterprise grade, cross platform, job scheduling system and it's
100% .NET based. It's in beta test now so it's not downloadable but, it
will be released soon. You can get more information at:

The class library documentation is at:
