Hi Maurice,
I really appreciate your honesty.
Most of us have invested a great deal of time and money in
Softimage/XSI so we are very
passionate about the software, for us it has been over 15 years.
It is almost like a marriage and religion, it is not easy just to walk
away from it and we definition don't want it
to be rip apart and put our to pasture like like other software have
been.

You know, I admit we are not perfect myself included, I admit we
cannot give the same amount of Marketing coverage as Softimage had
pre-acquisition, and I accept that you are justified in feeling we
have failed you. However I do not accept that we do not understand
the products or the industry. We do. And you know, if people in
Marketing did not fight for Softimage the default site for a product
in the same revenue tier as Softimage is would be:

I am not going to pretend what we do for Softimage is on the same
scale as 3ds max and Maya - it is not. We don't have the budgets to
do that but my team works hard to give it extra love and attention.
This is also true for people like Graham who is in Sales. I agree
that we are a small faction within Autodesk world but we are here to
try and help

I really think it's a case of the right hand not knowing what the
left hand is doing.
I think the devs, support, etc., folks are all going forward
full-steam ahead & have a great outlook on things.
I think the pr, marketing & management folks still call the software
"Soft Image" and don't seem to know what it does, who uses it, or
really care much to find out. (I still, to this day, get sales calls
from AD referring to it as soft image)
It doesn't take much to look at this list & see all the people who'd
love to showcase their use of Softimage.
It's a brilliant piece of software and really is the best solution AD
has to offer when you compare the 3 apps as they ship, unmodified.
It's a shame AD (corporate) doesn't seem to know, understand or care
about that.
