[AccessD] The new way of coding.

WOW, DNN has come a long way since I used it for my web site (2.0 was brand
new I think).  I didn't try the upgrade to 3.0 and now they are at 4.0 I
think.  The add-ons were much more scarce back then and not as robust.

So my web site sits at DNN 2.0.

Hi All:

Considering the possibility of moving into a web based applications and
using .Net; the old way of writing your own modules, though very
instructional is not worth it. More and more it is better to simply buy a
module that you require and plug it in. If a module cost only a few hundred
dollars or it would take a week to write and test one of your own so why not
just buy it.

Until recently I would write or cobble together systems from code from other
projects but moving exclusively to Dot Net is too time consuming. 

I have been using the Dot Nuke Net application, building my own skins, as
per client requests, extensively configuring it, adding the costs of
purchased modules into overall bill.

Now clients can have a custom, web based application, with a full CRM, Word
Processor, Spreadsheet, high quality graphics, a full set of ecommerce
modules, user management module, a accounting system, along with a built in
email manager, at a reasonable price, fully field tested, in around month.


I am still looking for a descent POS but have been reviewing a couple. Any
suggestions?

Jim
