[Vtigercrm-developers] VT6 Migrations

[Joe Bordes]

This is exactly why coreBOS was born: stability and leverage the 
investment in knowledge and time.

VT6 is a whole new application and it isn't even based on some common, 
extended and stable PHP framework, they rolled their own. It needs a lot 
of testing as can be seen in the forum and developers list daily. You 
may be better off going to zurmo, suitecrm or similar, in the end you 
have to spend a whole bunch of time learning a new system but at least 
they are tested.

Instead of spending 6-8 months learning and migrating lets spend that 
time taking an already stable and proven in many installations piece of 
software to the next level without breaking anything... it just makes 
business sense.

coreBOS is here to stay, it isn't about long time support (as some of 
have asked me) it is about a new path, a new community, a different 
future...
