Winforms is fine, not as powerful as what came before it but otherwise good. The problem with winforms is WPF supposedly deprecating it.

WPF has a much steeper learning curve though. For non customer facing desktop programs, WinForms is fine.

I don't think WPF has been successful in replacing winforms, more that it was a hard sell to management to use winforms after WPF was announced.
