I agree to some extent. For those that don't necessarily require merge are happy with a fancy interface that works well for what it does. What bugs me is that sometimes it feels like Versions is too comfortable and doesn't see any competition. The truth in the matter is that when you invest in a product, you expect that product to dwell on your needs, like every other paid for product. We've seen a useful update recently, and for the price of Versions I'm happy with it. But if nobody starts to mention what other products are capable of doing we all stuck with a product that will sluggishly deliver bits and pieces to keep us hoping. Ask yourselves, how much longer will you wait for features that already exist elsewhere? Does money really become an issue then?
The reality is, if we don't give the competition some limelight Versions won't fight back. I think we all agree that there is only one feature that can change the life cycle of this product. It's time to put your money where your mouth is and deliver! Not saying that in a horrible way of course!
