So lets try this again shale we?

What makes yours different from any other FREE ticket system out there that might have better features?


Bottom line is here you start off something given away for free that's fair enough but then later down the track you pull the plug basically begging for ppl to PAY for something extra that they might want which by all accounts would be a normal feature in any Ticket system how have totally missed the plot here?... Don't you think this a bit hash?.... I know I'm finding it hard to swallow this deception.

I kind of feel like now that I am on the team, I need to say something here.

1. Support - You talk about these free mods. What would you do if the mod is not supported. I use Joomla on my site and I have yet to find a mod like this that is supported. And if I did find one, it probably isn't as supported as much as our mods. I am personally not a regular coder on this mod, but I am a member of the Development team. I even chime in and answer questions and such. That alone shows that we do offer top notch support. And when we release MyCart, We will show that mod just as much support.

2. Integration - You talk about bridges. There are some bridges out there. Joomla has one, but for most people, it takes hiring someone to get it installed. Even then you have to worry about that mod being supported. If it is not supported then there is a good chance that there are bugs and holes in it. You also have to think about upgrades. If you use Joomla, then you know that 1.0 is a bit different then 1.5. Most of the mods that work on 1.0, don't work on 1.5 and even some of them that do work, are screwed up. Again, I use Joomla, and personally, if I had the time to go through and import that database into vbadvanced and vbulletin, I would. Joomla is sloppy in my opinion, and most of the mods made for it are sloppy as well. Now wouldn't you rather have a mod that is so easy to install and set up, that you do not need to hire someone to do it for you. Even then, if you do need help, we have great support. Also on a smaller note, if you install a whole cms then you have to worry about styling. If you get our mod, then the styling is already done for you. No need to look into getting a skin for the cms you only got because you needed a support ticket system.
Another thing to look at it users. If you get a cms for the support system and you dont want to hire someone to bridge it with vB, then you have to worry about two sets of user tables. Because personally, I don't like spam, and if you don't require registration, then you will probably get alot of unneeded tickets. Our mod uses the already established vBulletin user table.

So if you look at this, If a complete noob, that knows nothing about skinning, or doing anything with any system other then vbulletin, comes here and needs a Support Ticket system or a shopping cart, then its probably going to be cheaper to just buy our mod.

On a last note, because I can't think of anything else to say really, All this will go for MyCart also.
