[QUOTE="Brocklander, post: 16778, member: 10390"] This is probably the biggest draw back, you can get the box up and working for a customer, but what to do when the next release of MP rolls around? This happened when I pointed a friend towards an open source MSN Messenger alternative that was still a work in progress. The version she downloaded was quite buggy, and she didn't understand that it was necessary to be downloading, installing and configuring the latest versions every week or so to stay on top of what was new as well as the bugfixes. But I guess it depends on what functionality the customer wants, and whether the current release of MP delievers this and the stability needed to keep them happy. Another interesting issue is not really a complaint I guess - it's explaining all the things that MP can actually do! It's a tough sales pitch when you have trouble explaining just how full of funcitionality the program is. [/QUOTE]
