Contribute is being interpreted by some of my prospective clients as Macromedia's version of my company's proprietary web content management tools on their initial reading of the Contribute site marketing material. They ask me "why do we need to pay you when we can use Macromedia's tools?"
There really is no similarity beyond marketing hype, however it's becoming a new issue we need to address in the sale cycle... Bottom line though is our client sites can be maintained by clerical workers with no programming, computer or technical savvy, and with Contribute there's a HUGE potential for site failure due to the depth of the software... Contribute is NOT truly a painless effortless site content maintenance tool for anyone other than high end designers or IT people in corporations. (Our clients are the small and mid-size business without an IT or design staff). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
