However, the template management, administration, panel, etc... there's no comparison. It's vB.

So I vote vB :D
Agreed. The themes for 3.0 look smoother on the users end but harder to manage for the user but maybe vb 4.0 can beat em there =]

IPB have always had a visual superiority over vbulletin. I don't expect that to ever change, They (jelsoft) don't know how to slice their GDK ;). There are some areas (which I'm tired of posting) where IPB have always been ahead of vbulletin (permissions system being one) but overall vbulletin is my choice.

I recently tinkered with IPB 3.0 and like how it performs, feels and then I went into the template system. Hmmmm, suffice to say I closed it down after that. I'm sure I can easily style for the ipb software but I am not willing to adapt.

I voted IpB 3 because I'm not taking this poll seriously.

I'm going to go with vBulletin here. For me, I already posted enough about why I prefer the software elsewhere, including a few relatively long blog entries, an FAQ and a fanlisting, but I'm gonna say I prefer the current version to Invision Power Board 3.0, and I can definitely say I'm going to try and likely prefer vBulletin 4 to IPB 3.0.

Yes but is there any word on when 4.0 will be released?

We are working hard and plan to have vBulletin 4.0 released in beta form in early Q2 of 2009.
Hopefully soon..

I like nothing about IPB over VB :D VB is the software for me!

I use IPB from the members point of view on several forums and find it a royal pain, it looks good,the interface is neat but for me that is it,the content is bitty and unfriendly.

I recently tried their demo and again thought the ACP menu system looked very neat,this did not mean it was "useable" though. Looking at their website , is it me or is it hard to find any real information or help links?

The free forum offerings appear to have better sites than IPB .

This poll is about as insightful as if you were to post a poll on a Mac forum asking users if they preferred Mac or PC.

Given that going forward (excluding 4.0 as thats already designed) then its perfectly possible that the new IB developers may come up things you like better than IPB.

The result so far is quite surprising ..............






...not.

Shelley_c 07-16-2009 08:44 PM
I'm sure the people at IB will come up with things I like on the visual side that I prefer over ipb. On an overall appearance, I am quite confident in saying it won't have a visual superiority over IPB. It hasn't yet, and I don't expect it will. Unless the style previews shown are fake.

I'll see when beta is released and be the judge.

who cares which is better - we still have to pay.
