I'd be quite disappointed if anyone could maintain a "list of

the metrics of such are not worth anything anyway. If you're trying
to justify the use of Coldfusion, don't bother going with a count like
that.

Directors don't care if developers eat shit, once they get the job done quicker
and cheaper.
There's also the quote "Nobody ever got fired for using #IndustryLeader#."
Which isn't particularly helpf
I don't think we could ever get an accurate number of ColdFusion sites or
applications currently running. What I can say with utmost certainty is that
there are over 10k unique organizations worldwide actively using ColdFusion.
At Adobe, we define _active_ as having purchased ColdFusion 8 or 9.

In addition to the Gartner report, there are these remarks on a Gartner blog:

I contract at NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) a large

State Dept, National Institutes of Health, Congress and the Senate uses
ColdFusion.

I recently interviewed for a contract job with the Human Development Reports
division of the United Nations. They are using ColdFusion. The front end is
HTML, but they use AJAX to hit ColdFusion servers to populate content and data.
Government at many levels uses ColdFusion. (Yes, I know, citi

Well if he's determined, he'll just return with how many sites run on PHP or
.NET or whatever.
Numbers don't help for CF - what you need to demonstrate is how active and
passionate the community is.
That might be a tough case to make if your client doesn't already have skin
in the game. CF is going to limit them in as many ways as it's going to help
them.
I have loved CF for 10 years. I'm happily a full time CFer and
plan to always be.

To respond to an IT director who thinks ColdFusion is dated and not in much
use anymore...
although this is the same guy that thinks .NET is a programming language.
It seems I keep having to make the 'Why ColdFusion' argument again and

Also keep in mind that many, many CF projects are internal-only within their
organizations.

That's because that's individual pages.
Adobe (Ben Forta) has a good reference for sites using ColdFusion:
