5 Reasons To Bring Back ASL-Lite Or Alternative
Posted: Sat Nov 16, 2013 6:59 am
Dear Atomicorp,
there are many customers who do not need the full ASL and prefer the liteweight ASL-Rules Only (ASL-LITE). Here Are 5 reasons to bring it back
1) Small Business: ASL is more expensive than ASL-Lite - you are hurting your bottom line by removing support for ASL-Lite
2) There are still more than enough ASL-Lite / Rules Only Customers that would happily shell out money for this, so you can easily justify the expenses (SEE HERE https://www.atomicorp.com/forums/viewto ... 014#p40014)
3) ASL requires a kernel upgrade, system admins are often reluctant to making big changes to a running system (it takes time and if something goes wrong it can get expensive). I'm strictly speaking about small business here
4) You already have a product that only requires a small upgrade to attract a lot more small customers. By ignoring the small customers you are hurting your bottom line (see 1)
5) Asl-Lite supposedly requires little maintenance and many customers would just be happy about automatic rules retrieval
In any case, you are losing money and customers. I for one know that I would easily shell out $300-$500 per year if you had a decent way to retrieve the rules automatically rather than upgrading to ASL
Please consider my request and I would be happy to see a comeback or possibly another improved lite-weight alternative
