Pros of using web forms
1. Easy to distribute. When the server is updated, the next time users
log on they will have access to those changes
2. Can be viewed from anywhere the user has access to a browser
Cons of using web forms
1. The richness of the available controls is limited
2. Slower
4. Security has to be very tight
5. A lot more code needed as all the form contents need to be
repeatedly cached
6. If Internet connection goes down then user will not have access to
records
Pros of using Windows forms
1. Much richer user interface with sliding panes, explorer views etc.
2. Pop-up forms available
4. Security is not as huge a problem
Cons of using windows forms
1. Distribution becomes a problem.
2. Third party controls must be installed on the machine where the app
is run
3. Need to clearly define the Minimum PC requirement for the client to
run.
