==Reception== ''[[InfoWorld]]'' in 1986 criticized Clarion's requirement of a hardware [[dongle]] and inability to produce standalone compiled code, reporting its p-code as slower than compiled [[Turbo Pascal]] but faster than interpreted dBASE III Plus. The magazine found the language's features comparable to dBASE's, easy to learn, fast to develop with, and with excellent technical support, but needing more and better documentation.<ref name="petreley19860811">{{Cite magazine |last=Petreley |first=Nicholas |date=1986-08-11 |title=Clarion Is Promising For Database Applications |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Zi8EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA37#v=onepage&q&f=true |access-date=2025-05-01 |magazine=InfoWorld |pages=37-39 |volume=8 |issue=32}}</ref>
