Why not use both?  That's what we do.

When it comes to putting together a user interface it's hard to beat
productivity you can achieve with Delphi.  But if you need to do much behind
that pretty face, Delphi doesn't help to keep you from falling into traps
like Ada does.

I've done some experimentation with a few of the GUI builders for Ada.  To
date I haven't seen anything that holds a candle to Delphi for ease of
puting together a user interface on Windows.

My second choice would probably be GWindows, which doesn't currently include
a GUI builder, but does provide a nice model for programming windows that
allows you to avoid getting into the grubby details.

I have had success using Delphi as a front end with Ada code in DLL's.
