Care to share some thoughts? We have deeply tried a lot of solutions. WEBCAT is simply the best, believe me.I am always surprised when I hear, from a professionnel developer, the WEBCAT price is steep. A serious project and the investment cost is absorbed several times.Think this way and you'll get the best from your choice of WEBCAT as a development tool. And if you really want to compare, have a look at Microsoft eCommerce solution, for example. We have winned a project against a company using it, because we have developed very quicky a prototype, we have offered a better price (and still very profitable for us) and without even using all the features of WEBCAT we have furnished a solution exactly as the client wanted it.So we decided to use MAC X only if PCS will develop a version for it. I mean the first criteria is WEBCAT and not the Mac OS.A last word about the costs. There are two costs when using a development system. The investment itself and the hidden costs. In the case of WEBCAT, the hidden costs are ZERO. Hard to tell the same thing about another product?Helene Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
