The progs that went before and why we moved on...

CE's proprietary system... dissolution of deal with CE

RevEX... webmasters complaints, lacking in features common to other software

Rose something... can't even remember the name of it... but never came out of dev hell with it

Edit x - just not made for what we wanted to do so trying to make a square peg fit in a round hole

Our own proprietary system - basically cobbled together to keep the lights on

NATS - happy with feedback thus far, webmasters like it, we like the support, and so far so good.

Keep in mind this represents over ten years of trial and error. Greenguy - your point is well taken that we have moved too often but I would add that at the same time we were wrong to stay too long with things that plainly were not working rather than going with something that met our needs best and worked for the marketers efforts as well. A cautionary tale and a business lesson for all.
