Posted to the p5p list last week, here's a CNET story about Open Sales that has some broken sentence structure and apparently quotes ActiveState CEO Dick Hardt out of context.
It's C-Net... what do you expect?

Poorly written, inaccurate details, jumbled flow.
Oh, yes, it's a C-Net article.
Thanks.

I've taken a look at the software they've comme up with. It gave me a headache, I've never seen such a clumbsy installation procedure.
For a company that has a burden of $10 million USD, I would get some descent project managers and a few mission statement on QA.
but that's just the way I see it....
OpenSales is a poor choice

Sloppy code that look slike it was written in Perl4, no support for mod_perl or other speedup mechanisms, weak docs...
Do yourself a favor and try one of the other ones like MiniVend, Tallyman, or YAMS.
