No need to worry about JDBC or SQL. No need to spend countless hours writing huge database interface routines. VBSF automatically handles all the dirty work so you can concentrate on your application.

No need to purchase the 'enterprise' or 'data enabled' version of a development tool. These versions usually cost hundreds more and do not fully support a 3-tier architecture (e.g. a client usually has to import database drivers or must deal with SQL or other database related issues). With VBSF you can use the standard version. Source code licensees also have the ability to modify the software to suit their needs.

Easily create scalable business objects. For example, your application (both business objects and user interface) can initially be deployed in a single user or client/server configuration. Later, when the need arises, your application can be scaled to a true three-tier distributed application with no code changes.

Develop under your preferred environment without regard for the target database. You have the freedom to choose the database scheme best suited for a project. You can start out a project using a desktop database such as Microsoft Access, and later switch to Oracle with no source code changes to your persistent objects. VBSF makes this feat possible because your persistent objects do not know or care which database they are accessing.
