All:
Thanks for the forum and feedback option and I finally got here.
After monitoring this software for several weeks with the Win Internals
process monitor and have found the following :
o Third parties are able to install and work around the install service
when it is disabled. No dialog or otherwise. They install an "Advanced
installer" and do what they want. What do we pay for ?Shiet.
o winsxs: Win Side by side keeps growing and growing replacing vista
dlls with god knows what. What the heck why have an operating system at
all then if everyone and their brother can replace os files with their
own version. Where is the quality ? Customer commitment ?
o Cannot turn off various services no matter what. Needs a third party
virus protection because you cannot do it yourself ?
o Network appears to be off. Yet no way to be sure unless you unplug
the cable. Images are screwy no X when it is turned off with software.
o As a professional I cannot use this to do my job effectively becasuse
I do not trust it. To me this is a serious let down. Not worth the time
or money. This is really bad after using Microsoft products for over 10
years.
o No ssh or other secure mechanism to support the wide variety of file
uploads and server monitoring non-windows (non webdav). What are you
doing to support developers, and web development people? Just do not see
the commitment to quality. Do you realize what a market that is ?
