31 Advantages of Plone and Open Source  Open Source and Plone is low cost software  No manufacturer dependence  Our site can change as fast as the world around us  Large numbers of developers ensure the security

32 From spaghetti to Sushi Before 2002  All resources were manually made from scratch  Some resources had a finite life span and had to be removed manually  Manual management of broken links etc.  Content delivery lacked workflow  Few colleagues were able to contribute

33 From spagetti to Sushi After 2002  Strong workflow model  Open Source, so the price was right  Use what you need rather than buy unused features  Don’t pay for software licenses, pay for development

34 Looking ahead

35 Looking for at long term relationship?
