      The VMWare 'thick' client, and the VMWare flash anything. Also, IE9 is still being used.

      Argh, LOB apps, not IT tool sets! I know all the IT stuff that is problematic.

            And now you've brought back painful memories that I thought were long buried. Jerk!

              One more, UPS Worldship. While you can do your shipments online, interface is just terrible. While this app supports remote clients, you cannot install it on Windows server, at least it's unsupported, I haven't personally tried.

              So Terrible.

                It's been a while since I worked on it, but the liquor distributors were more or less forced to use a crappy ERP/Inventory software from the manufacturers. Can't recall the name of it now.

                Also, my HVAC client uses the a quoting tool that comes from one of the HVAC manufacturers, not sure if they ever looked for an independent solution - but that would require a ton of time setting up the parts dependencies, etc, which would likely put the cost outside of usability.

                  Oh, I've already purged the memories of FedEx's Ship Manager. Just as bad.
