Delphi Alternatives

Delphi is described as 'Embarcadero Delphi, formerly CodeGear Delphi and Borland Delphi, is a software development environment for Microsoft Windows applications originally developed by Borland and now owned and developed by Embarcadero Technologies' and is a popular IDE in the development category. There are more than 25 alternatives to Delphi for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, BSD and .NET Framework apps. The best Delphi alternative is Microsoft Visual Studio. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try Microsoft Visual Studio or Lazarus. Other great apps like Delphi are Xcode, MonoDevelop, KDevelop and Free Pascal.
