Feedback on new Website Builder/ CMS

[WickedZealot]

Hi guys,

 

Can I get some feedback on my upcoming Website Builder / CMS Platform from this first video release ?

We are about to release them very soon, so looking for any & all feedback on what we have in there. Hope you like it and what we are trying to do is on the right track..

Thanks !

IMO the video was a bit lengthy, and people would get the point earlier on. I see it as a simplistic website builder.

[WickedZealot]

Thanks Neptune, ya I need make an smaller video this one is for an upcoming expo event so it will be looping all day

Great to hear, trying to keep it as simple & straight forward where possible with the builder.

It looks really nice, but I can't say much more until I can actually try it out myself (In 3 days? ).

 

Am I reading this correctly:

You are able to download the whole CMS and use it on your own machine (for free?) OR host it directly through the website for a price?

[WickedZealot]

Yep in a few days for the releases, saturday by latest! The CMS is Open Source & Free to download / use, like any other good CMS is. Aimed for Designers / Developers.

 

The Cloud Website Builder is different to the CMS, as in like another product. Where you can sign-up and get your website (including hosting, etc) as you would sign up to any other online app or cloud/saas website builders such as wix, weebly, etc. The Cloud version is using the same technology - the CMS platform itself. Aimed for the general user who wants to create an blog site, personal site or whatever they want. It is free as well, we will introduce paid subscriptions later on but we will never take away your free account ever.

 

Hope that makes more sense

CMS should be out an day or so before the Cloud version launches afterwards. In an sense these are beta releases, so we can get as many people testing both out, apply updates over the coming weeks & months. I'm looking forward very much to getting these out and see how people think of them so we can improve it further. The expo next week should help then to spread the word I hope!

[Nishok]

Yep, that covered my questions, thanks.

 

Looking forward to the release

The system looks very fascinating and the prices I saw regarding the kits, I would say they are pretty good. Good job, keey up the good work!

The video is lengthy but the music is catchy. I enjoyed it and it looks cool to try out.

[BoM]

Yeah pretty much what neptune said....really good, well put together video.

 

Only problem being, a video of that style is meant to quickly introduce a product in a simplistic way. Like 2-3 minutes max.

 

I'm sure I could find a lot of things you could cut out when I get some free time .

[WickedZealot]

Great feedback, thanks!

Ya the video longer than normal as it will continue to loop over and over at the expo all day but will have to make it shorter for the web version so any suggestions what to kick out / keep in will be good to know

Last minute testing going on before pushing live very soon on it too.
