Heritage of Delphi, 20 Years of Innovation Delphi has been a continuous source of innovation for application development for more than 20 years. The precursors to Delphi were stepping stones on the way to Delphi 1.0 and the VCL framework that  date back to early versions of Turbo Pascal, Turbo Pascal for Windows, Turbo Pascal for Mac , Turbo Vision, and Object Windows. Delphi was first publicly unveiled on February 14th, 1995 in San Francisco at a conference called Software Development held at the Moscone Center. Philippe Kahn took the stage as a keynote speaker and invited the audience to check out the Borland booth in the Gateway Ballroom at 7:00pm to experience the launch of Delphi!

Developers building modern apps face a common challenge of delivering consistent user experiences across multiple platforms, devices, and form factors. Delivering a rock solid and super smooth UI/UX experience to your end user is critical to avoiding app abandonment. End users expect apps to run seamlessly and bug free while conforming to standardized UI/UX patterns for Android, iOS, Windows and OS X. To accomplish this level of consistency, developers need to understand and incorporate end user behavior (how they are actually using and interacting with the app) to inform and guide engineer efforts. Embarcadero Technologies offers AppAnalytics a hosted service for developers looking to better understand end user behavior within their apps built  with RAD Studio, Delphi, C++Builder, Appmethod, and now Visual C++ projects in Visual Studio via NuGet. AppAnalytics provides deep insight about end user behavior to developers during every step of the development cycle from concept to complete. All kinds of apps from private large Enterprise to niche marketplace stand to gain improved usability and stability by applying the insights of AppAnalytics.
