<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Angelo,</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I fully agree with you.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Unfortunately my journey in your plan
ends at Step 1 because I'm not yet in the Git.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I'm happy to contribute if I can, so I
ask Vtiger staff to allow me in the code server.<br>

<div class="">Hi @all, this is the current status of vtiger open
source , in my point of view:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I had quite a few customers who simply ran away from
vtiger open source because of the bugs and lack useful features
vtiger competitors already have out of the box.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><b class="">You may think they ran away from vtiger
open source to vtiger on demand, but no, because of the bad
experience they don’t trust vtiger brand anymore and go to
Vtiger competitors.</b></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">You may think again, we as developers, can get paid
for fixing bugs and for introducing custom modules, or even
module replacements, but in the long game this is plain wrong
even from an economic point of view, because bugs and lack of
basic features scare away very good customers, those with big
deals and big ideas to implement in a crm project. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">Vtiger open source customers are not the same
customers who buy vtiger cloud subscription, even if on <a
href="http://vtiger.com" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">vtiger.com</a> the
access to opensource download is almost hidden!</div>

<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><b class="">I think this quote can be rewritten
like this: vtiger open source doesn’t have to suck so vtiger
cloud can win, because we can both win.</b></div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This email is not just a way to complain
pointlessly, the objective is to invite vtiger community and
vtiger team to take action together!</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">STEP 1:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If you, vtiger team, don’t have time to merge bug
fixes, engage in conversations with vtiger community on git,
review and merge new functionalities as fast as they come on
git,</div>
<div class="">just let us do it, please.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">STEP 2:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Vtiger community please submit on git all bugs you
want to get fixed, all the features you think could help develop
vtiger extending modules instead of replacing vtiger modules,
anything to help closing the gap between vtiger open source and
its competitors.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">STEP 3:</div>
<div class="">vtiger community please help with development of
anything set in STEP 2, if I fix something and you fix something
else we both win, it’s the same for new functionalities.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">So, @all what do you think?</div>
