Just got a mail shot from NOF

[Ian]

From a NOF Mailshot.

SEO enhancements are just one of 300 new and improved features that make
NetObjects Fusion XII the fastest and easiest way to Build Great Sites®

And the bug fixes?

UH, the many bugs that infest NOF XII / 12, some of which are new,
others were also frequently seen in NOF 11...

.... the many bugs are free of charge.

Hence, the bug fixes come free as well!

There was another self-congratulatory mailshot a few weeks ago '
wittering on about 'It was hard to believe that the site wasn't built by
a professional designer....'

However, it's easy enough to believe that the software was created by a
bunch of monkeys, and that the company execs are a bunch of sharks.

I was going to add a smiley after that last line - but the situation's
really not funny any more.

I have to admit, I have found the last two mailshots have angered me.

I have already bought the product but don't use it because of the bugs that they have admitted exist but have yet to fix.

I so dearly want to use NOF 12 as NOF has served me well.

Well, if you only got one email, think yourself lucky. I get each one 4 tims. Can anyone at NO say "data purge"?

Hi Folks

Looks like there is still 'life' within Netobjects....

I emailed them back after their most recent mailshot -
and, after a mere 5 days or so, I've just had this response...

"Thank you for your constructive criticism. We know that some of the
bugs in Fusion XII cause inconveniences to our customers and we really
hope that all these can be overcame very soon. Yes, we have come to the
final stage of the AutoUpdate 1 and we are now making the finishing
touches.

Thank you for choosing NetObjects and being a valued member of our
NetObjects community.
"

All sounds totally reassuring <g> - don't know why I was worried!
I should have had more patience....

I have to say that NOF 12 will be my last update. I am moving on to something that is stable, supported, and has FREQUENT updates that includes BUG FIXES. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on you.

No more of my savings is going to NOF. And thus begins the failure of another American company who doesn't understand the meaning of the word QUALITY.

You've hit the nail perfectly on the head! No quality concious company would
allow themselves to get into the position they are now in. Watch, I bet the
"bug fix" will be staged to cost $110US.

HTH,

Totally agree. I am really disappointed with it.

Any suggestions for " something that is stable, supported, and has FREQUENT updates that includes BUG FIXES"

You could try a product called WYSIWYG Web Builder.....

Works for me, and a few others who are disenchanted by the NOF12 fiasco.
