Thank you so much Dear Ravi Bhavnani, You are truly amazing with very clear and comprehensive ideas, especially that you are not the person who discourages other, rather the person who encourages others to develop himself. I would liked to be in contact with you in private. As far as the analysis is concerned, I've already done the basics and I've also found that it's really a project that will solve several needs specifically in our local community. I'm then looking for the technology that can be best adapted to my project. Thanks again for your suggestions, guides and advice.

Yes, thank you very much. I'm not at all an expert in development software, and my experience is limited. In fact, I'm looking for a database engine solution that can work well with this project as I've described it. I was also looking for a database engine that can easily work with C# and Crystal Report because I'd like to use Crystal Report for Reports, and also a database engine that grants the possibility to be deployed either on a server or on a cloud, finally that the application install on different computers users use and access this database that is deployed on a remote server or on cloud. Your recommendations, suggestions and advice will help me great and will also enable me to develop high-performance software. Thank you

Thank you dear Dave Kreskowiak, To be clear with my question, I wanted to ask that I develop a WinForms application to manage universities with the programming language c#, the application I develop is an application that must manage the entire university including student management, budget management, course management etc.. It's an application that I want, after development, to be able to deploy to different universities, which are then the end users of my application. So I'm asking what solution I can use so that my application installed on different users' computers can use a single database! without error connection to database?? Thank you

Thank you very much Dear jschell for your answer to my question posed in the forum. "taking into account my capacity?" I mean taking into account the cost, "managing universities with c#" is really the input errors.

Hello friend! I am developing a Windows application (WinForms) to manage universities with c#, it is an application that is very complex because it is a Multi-user application, I want that for this application I can use a single database centralized by all users of this application, which will be managed by myself and my development team. Is this possible? What would be the best and least expensive solution, taking into account my capacity? Also in terms of cost, between a SQL SERVER EXPRESS database and a MySQL database, which one might be better for me? And which one is well suited to C#, using Crystal Report and Visual Studio as well? Your answers will help me a lot to make a decision and also develop an efficient solution. I'm thinking about whether it's possible to host only my SQL SERVER EXPRESS, or MySQL database to which my Windows software or application designed in C# can connect remotely so that the various users of my device can access the remote database Thank you for your help
