I remember people using an add-on called FFXIVapp that basically did what ACT does, just in a less accurate way. And my static group was using ACT already as early as Second Coil.
It was thanks to comparing my performances with parses of hardcore raiders back in ARR, Lucrezia and other guilds like Collision, that I improved my skills as a player. Without having access to such things, there is no way I would have improved through the years.
