Subdreamer CMS est all..

Hi readers, this is my futile attempt to let people know that before they decide to buy a CMS system they really really make sure they buy what they need.

I went with Subdreamer about 6 months ago. I did thorough research on CMS systems and the open source ones at that time did not offer me the speed i needed for the CMS.

You see i am not a n00b but my coding skills really suck :) i know how to insert HTML and a small amount of AJAX but that is about it.

So Subdreamer it was and at the time the forum and community they hosted was kind of ok..a bit small but ok. There wheren't that many plug ins available BUT rescue was on the way Version 3 was lurking....

Well.. we are 6 months beyond that point and V3 is still a very good hidden secret. That is not the real problem.. the problem is the people at Subdreamer just blow you away when you inquire about the stuff ahead...

They refuse in any language to tell customers what they are up to. They are sort of working on a 2.6 release for a while now but this offers more of the same boring old web1 stuff... not very 2008 i'd say.

Now when you ask them or even worse criticice them on the forums you end up with one true and sure thing.. your post wil be deleted... just like that.
Now they made things even worse and closed the forum for anything that is remotely related to unsatisfied customers.. eeuuhhrrrr... hmmm

Well ok then we go underground and find the subsite hosted by Subdreamer believers and funded by subdreamer management.. and there the same happens.. challenge them engage them and voila post gets locked.. deleted or you are banned,,,

Well more to follow including the thread in question in pdf format..

stay tuned...

Amen for posting this. I've seen their horrible business practices for years. It's not just the lack of customer support but the way they try to push out competition. Ziad is prick who thinks his shit doesn't stink. He has no clue how to run a business and will lock and delete any thready that mildly criticizes his product. They will fail in a year, I guarantee it. He heeds to get his head out of his ass and learn how to run a successful business.

I applaud you for starting this blog but I also know that Ziad will threaten to sue you because it criticizes his business practice

Thx mate.. i am so sick of being treated like a kid.. i paid for this software and as i am far away from where they situate i am unable to do anything else then use the web what it is for... freedom of speech.. even if the ones talked about do not like it.

I will never attack someone personal but a business can get it heads on.. I am ready.
