They are dissing the competition. It is what a lot of advertising does.

Their viral advertising seems to be working though. Just look at all the posts about the product. And as Oscar Wilde said “the only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about“.

My only complaint is that their site seems a little slow. Maybe the advertising is working too well (for their setup) ?

I see the price has now been halved to 99 USD but it will be 399 USD in february!!!!! I don’t think that price will last if it happens at all.

I came across this discussion while searching for a MSSQL/IIS alternative to WordPress. I love wordpress but unfortunately a new site we’re building is hosted on servers that don’t support PHP/MySQL. I’m searching the web for an alternative and ideally I’d like to find one that’s free like WordPress.

Can anyone suggest a good WordPress alternative that’s not Graffiti?

Oh My Lord! What a joke.

I work for a company that develops in .NET and we (they) have even created a CMS that is catered to Hotels but works for any site and yet when it comes to building my own site or a new site I use wordpress. Why? Not because the product we make is crap but because wordpress just works so well. open source rules.

Just look for plugins for wordpress and you can see the variety of the open source love. Try looking for a plugin for a proprietary CMS.
