Yeah, another thing I should have mentioned is that we were really a
Fusebox/FLiP shop, so we had a good framework for CF that really saved
us a lot of time. In that sense it was a double shot to our development
speeds as FB allowed us to reuse and repurpose code a lot. Even in ASP,
and PHP pro

switch, because things you used to be able to do in a couple of hours now
take more time.

I kind of addressed this in my forthcoming response to Ian, but I agree
with you -- it has many, many strenghts. Development speed did not
appear to be one of them though, so it sort of became a thorn in our
side in that regard.

I found .NET to be so burdensome for most of the web sites we were
doing. I think that it has its place and is very effective for many
enterprise application development needs. But for the projects we were
working on, we lost much money developing sites in .NET, as the process
took much longer
How come? .NET programming is fun!
Although, I must add, that I am very happy to *not* be working with .NET
anymore. :-)

May I ask why you are very happy? We're getting allot of upper management interest in .NET and I'm trying to get as honest and unbiased information as I can on the relative strengths and weaknesses of .NET vs. ColdFusion for web application building.

I agree -- I learned VB with .NET so I was sort of forced into learning
to work with Classes and reuse them where possible. It really is a case
of making use of the framework's stregths. It takes more time, but
ultimately makes things much more reusable and efficient.
Although, I must add, that
I think this is more of a problem with VB6 programmers not taken the time to
use or educate themselves on the changes that .NET brings to the VB world.
It is a same to hear that he is staying with the old school side of VB.
