RE: WebWorks vs. RoboHelp

[DBennett -at- Foundationsoft -dot- com]

Well, I was hoping to put in a proposal to buy RoboHelp for Framemaker in
the next few months, so I was very interested to hear that it was no longer
available!

I checked Macromedia's site, and sure enough, it's not in the store.
However, when I called them, they assured me it was a mistake on the web
page, it is still for sale, and will continue to be sold indefinitely.
They're even offering a special through the end of July!

Rumors, rumors...!

Well, that's what's being slogged out on many lists. My theory remains
that the product competes and complements Macromedia's direct
competition (Adobe) too much, the product isn't in a cash-cow position
that RoboHelp is, and the user base is low enough that it can,
unfortunately, be written off or perhaps bribed to switch to another
solution.
