About Paradox
Paradox was created in 1985 by Ansa Software, primarily to provide a user-friendly relational database management system for DOS. It gained popularity for its graphical interface and powerful features. Borland acquired it in 1987, enhancing its capabilities and porting it to Windows. Paradox became a significant tool for database management during the late 1980s and early 1990s before declining with the rise of other database systems.
Paradox's strengths included its user-friendly graphical interface, robust indexing, and powerful query capabilities. Its weaknesses were limited scalability, occasional stability issues, and declining support. Competitors included Microsoft Access, dBASE, and FoxPro.
