Is your scope well defined?
My team (3 developers) just completed a redesign of a significant internal
VB6 application to C# (6 dll's, 1 exe). We eliminated all third party
dependencies and got the job done in 3 months end to end. We have been in
production for about a month and haven't had any significant issues only
minor logic errors. We have not had any issues with the Framework libraries
or CLR.
We improved performance by 50% (at a minimum) - mostly through design. The
most productive person on the team had no previous C# or .NET Framework
experience. C# and .NET is an extremely productive environment. We used
VS.NET 2002 and 1.0 Framework, VS.NET 2003 is even more efficient.
As far as deployment goes, we have had absolutely zero issues with
deployment to end users. This is where .NET really shines. If you can avoid
COM Interop, deployment can be as easy as copy and paste! Of course, with
VS.NET you can also create MSI packages for distribution (as we have).
A strong technical lead is very important. You need someone who can get the
project rolling in the right direction.
