I hope the turn this thread has taken can be straightened out. Bill Haskett (Advantos Software) is a valued client of Nebula R&D, and we also happen to be good friends. Nebula provides and supports his mv.NET software, and we're in fairly frequent contact. I think Bill made a harmless inquiry and the thread went off on an unfortunate tangent. I've exchanged notes with him. We're on the same page, as always. BlueFinity has also been in contact with him, just to make sure they're being properly represented by (us) their channel partners. :)
I don't mind Bill asking about other offerings. That's just pragmatic, professional, and good business. I'm always considering alternatives for specific environments as well, because my business is about providing solutions, not products. We all need to do this. In this market, it's unfortunate, but (with the exception of U2 itself and a few other community forums) people just don't talk about the software they use. That gives the impression that no one is using the tools. I really wish we'd see more enthusiasm for these products because it would help us all to grow in our understanding of the depth of the tools. The mv.NET forum gets no hits, in part because everyone gets their answers from their sales/support people. The same goes for DesignBais, UO.NET, QMClient, Viságe, FlashCONNECT, and many other products. Maybe high quality software and excellent support serve as a form of anti-marketing? :) C'est la vie.
