Apparity vs. CIMCON Software vs. VBScript vs. Visual Basic Comparison Chart

CIMCON Software minimizes operational risks inherent in end-user computing (EUC) files. Risks include regulatory reporting errors, non-compliance, cyber risk, and fraud. EUCs include documents such as spreadsheets, models, Access databases, scripted applications using VBScript, R, Python and self-service analytics tools such as Tableau and QlikView. Banks rely heavily on end-user computing applications (EUCs) such as Excel spreadsheets and scripts for day to day operations because they allow users to react quickly to changing market conditions or regulations. Whether they are used for creating financial models, finance, accounting or complying with regulatory requirements, they need to be managed effectively. CIMCON Software offers solutions that create an inventory of all EUCs in your organization, identify the most critical files, detect errors; provide a visual map of data dependencies, and provide on-going monitoring and control of your most important EUCs.

Visual Basic is an object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft. Using Visual Basic makes it fast and easy to create type-safe .NET apps. Visual Basic focuses on supplying more of the features of the Visual Basic Runtime (microsoft.visualbasic.dll) to .NET Core and is the first version of Visual Basic focused on .NET Core. Many portions of the Visual Basic Runtime depend on WinForms and these will be added in a later version of Visual Basic. .NET is a free, open-source development platform for building many kinds of apps. With .NET, your code and project files look and feel the same no matter which type of app you're building. You have access to the same runtime, API, and language capabilities with each app. A Visual Basic program is built up from standard building blocks. A solution comprises one or more projects. A project in turn can contain one or more assemblies. Each assembly is compiled from one or more source files.
