Hey mate, hello to you as well.
As the saying goes – welcome aboard the ship.
Yes, you got that right, Podium certainly requires a little more time than usual to get to grips with the unique terminology it uses and way of working in general. Yet after that crucial period (or at least judging based on my subjective experience) of introducement, things change drastically if one is patient enough. Then it all becomes pure pleasure.
On the other side, this critical period is very much a “deal-breaker” methinks, for those who need fast workflow and quick results, and with little – if not at all – patience and sense of adventure. So yeah, definitely some workflow, management and core features need be considered to draw more people. But honestly speaking, I enjoy being underground 😉
Yes, sometimes all is interrupted by the lack of some (vital) features, but hey, even the guys over at Steiny’s or Caky’s forums (to name but a few) complain about features they need 🙂 or some other issues they have, and those two are some pretty expansive and big corporations, probably with many hundreds of employees if not more, not a one-man army like Frits.
So Podium is definitely the place of both compromises and compliments.
Peace & Light
