UKNM: Homedepot and BV...

[Bill King]

from another posting board...


1.1 Even  BV's best developer's from their R&D

department were unable to come up with a workable

solution to allow book marking on homedepot.com.

Their suggestion, do the site in frames!?!


2.1 Bloated HTML was not really a factor on

homedepot.com simply because BV is not providing any

of the functionality one would expect on a

content-based site. Expected functionality would be

dynamic navigation, related links, etc. All of this

functionality was created using a production

called Frontier. Once again BV Professional Services

was unable to create similar functionality on the

server side.


2.4 BroadVision loves frames... it's the only way they

can manage session ID's. In fact, they'd tried to

convince us to move homedepot.com into frames

saying that was the only way BV could work

successfully.


2.6 We both know why homedepot.com *STILL* does not

have ecommerce functionality. Ad far as launching in 8

weeks goes, that was only because I and the rest of

the team was working 120 hour weeks.


2.8 BroadVision training is a joke!


2.11 BroadVision's interface *IS* 100% proprietary. In

fact, they don't even own the libraries needed to

developed new server-side components. They need

to be purchased from a third party vender.


2.14 BV doesn't support link's to external relational

databases, only single tables... You're stuck using

their database schema if you want to do any sort of

ecommerce.
