I totally agree with you... and so will probably every enterprise level customer. The SMB customers on the other usually don't have the ability to buy "peace of mind" for $10k/year.
Its not about price but about value. If Magnolia is of no value o an SMB, there is no point in trying to lower a price. We would instead have to increase value.
Finally, for non-profit organization the pricing of the Enterprise Edition is simply out of the question.
You mean the red cross (as an example) can't afford 10k a year? I wonder how they pay for their airline transports? Or their car fleet? Their employees?
50% off for non-profits, see our products page. Non-profit does not mean "no money involved".
Now most of the Magnolia users are probably not happy enough to be developing for international enterprises like Novartis...
We don't. But we do work for the Spanish Government, or for a UK research center, or for a US consulting business. We compete world- wide, and believe me thats no piece of cake.
