PERL is the most common programming language used to program CGI scripts. It is a very powerful language that can be used to easily modify large amounts of text files with hardly any programming required. PERL aficionados use it for doing everything.
Advantages:
 Perl has many built-in functions for character string manipulation. Mastering these functions makes it possible to write string code quickly and concisely.
Perl is implemented on a wide variety of platforms, so provides a useful tool for portable code. There are some limitations to this portability, however: Perl functions which depend on the underlying OS may not be portable.
Disadvantages:
Perl programs start slowly, since a large interpreter must be loaded before the first line of user code can execute. Furthermore if the user program uses dynamically loaded libraries, there is an additional delay at runtime to read the libraries from disk.
Perl attempts to continue execution in spite of `minor' programming errors. This can make it difficult to find the start of a chain of cascading errors.
For these reasons it is essential to migrate from PERL Programming to ASP.NET thus genie expert programmer will migrate your PERL application to ASP.NET
