Hey there. I get that you seem to like this product. I'm not even knocking it. I'm just telling HN what I experienced with the demo they posted.
As far as the product not being released... The guy is advertising a huge "SUCK IT SAP" website bragging about the new version of their software being released in 9 days. Not exactly an alpha version here.
I fail to see what the size of 'your' specific company has to do with anything. Anecdotal evidence is just that. 'Your' company might have the technical resources to fix bugs in open-source software, but that can't be a serious suggestion. That's like saying every enterprise out there should keep technical staff on-hand to patch the linux kernel. That's silly.
I posted a screenshot in another reply but in case you care, here's the bug that basic, and I stress that word, testing would have caught.
Great...thanks for doing so. I mentioned the size of my company's revenues in response to your comment Sorry, I work for a company with actual revenue and profit....so do I.
It's not that I necessarily like the product yet, but I'm willing to give it a shot, and willing to accept that there might be bugs.
