A little strongly worded, but it taps into my own sentiments on the subject: "And what do we have here? Novell Portal Services - "the industrial grade portal solution for all your enterprise needs"? Sounds solid, all right. Let's open the project management folder to have a closer look. I see: stability problems, deadline was 18 MONTHS ago, 200% over budget, thousands of lines of bad code to get plugins to work but failed anyway, total database crashes in the staging area, severe security problems - and all that for a portal project with almost no more features than a static website? Hm." The question purchasers must ask: Do I need to spend several hundred thousand dollars when there's a piece of off the shelf software for fifty bucks (or for free!) that will do the same thing?
