IMHO, the v8 (old) Powercode pricing was WAY too low. It was something like

We are using the Platypus database directly. Since it is only the first

Powercode's upgrades are crazy simple...

I just looked at the database and saw the version log. I think it was
August 2008 when we first bought Powercode.
Never had an issue with licenses. They come up with a new version
about once a week, maybe two. Recently bug fixes and small changes.
Features are a different issue, though.

Powercode v9 had a major price tag increase with it. Are you comparing
Powercode v9 pricing to Azotel? Or the old Powercode v8?

I have some clients running powercode. They have been having troubles
getting licenses and such.I was always a fan of powercode. The
powercode web-site has no new news since 2009. The forum link returns a page
not found. I have heard they turned things around in the company awhile
back.
How does Azotel stand up to Powercode? Powercode has been there for years,
but they did stagnate for awhile.
Azotel doesn't look nearly as full-featured as Powercode.
So then how does the pricing compare?

Chuck, how problem-free is your solution?
One of the things that I was afraid about a custom in-house solution, even
if it's just modifying a base platform, was the recurring cost of having
someone dealing with its issues, things getting out of sync, etc.

Powercode is all web based. Even the built in "web proxy". It's like
the Canopy AP to SM proxy but it uses the same port (444) as the

If you have a developer to make things work together, that's a great option.
Powercode's alternative is to shut the customer off and have them pay
their bill. I'd rather that then a phone call. Just my opinion.
Chuck - does your Wombat/Platypus shut customers off, track equipment,
etc or is it
Wombat/Platypus does it as well... $250/mth for under 5k customers...

We use Freeside with integrated RT Ticket System. The next upgrade of
Freeside (we are planning on implementing it next month) is also
supposed to include a calendar that is tied to RT.
This has worked very well for us, although Freeside has a few wonks that
have to be dealt with on occasion.
