    Dominick got a reaction from interfasys in Blesta Vs Whmcs   
    Thanks all for the replies, updates and experiences.
    We took several months decided and up to a point even tried out unlimtied licenses of the both being able to compare them and we decided not to go with blesta, here is why:
     
    We feel blesta is focusing to much on a small group that have an extensive knowledge of php.
    We also feel because whmcs is so popular and there are soo many modules available that blesta should try to win the users over by creating new modules, organizing contents etc but they don't.
     
    We are based in the netherlands and 95% of our clients prefer to pay using a payment gateway called iDeal. We found a post dating back to 2010 where the users claims Blesta is currently working to integrate this.
    Unfortunately, we're in 2014 now and the module is still not available.
     
    On page one this comments was made: 'all of us developpers will help you and build it'
    I contacted several developers and before we made a clear overview of what it would cost to have the essential modules developers, we ready to have a module made,
    found out that the general tone isn't to help out the community (Develop the module and make it available (commercially / free) on the forums but they rather keep the modules to themselve,
    we contacted 4 developers and they all mentioned this to us.
     
    Further more,
    the fact that modules garden left to work exclusively for whmcs is never good for business but at least you could absorb the modules (which they handed over) and keep providing updates etc but what I understood from the page it's basically 'as is'. The same principle applies with a lot of the other modules developers here, a lot of them are 'as is'.
     
    So getting back to the post from @PauloV '3º- Can I sleep at night with Blesta?'
    Can you really sleep while using modules which the developer don't even support? We don't.
     
    And finally the translation; Like other choices made regarding blesta they are all well though out put we're properly executed(my opinion),
    the translation project is great but it is soo time consuming we stopped, we suggested on this forum to let google translate it at first and have users make it better but Blesta's view on this was different.
     
    The final reason that pushed us over to whmcs side was the fact that blesta doesn't have a dedicated support,
    we experienced pre-sale is good and fast and support is slow.
     
    In conclusion, for us as a Dutch company, blesta has the following downsides compared to whmcs:
    - Basic payment gateways are not available
    - Our language isn't even fully translated and doing so (only for us) will take us a day or so, doing so and sharing this with the community will take up a week or so... So users probably translated the language files themselves but didnt share them due to the extra days it takes to use the translation project.
    - None of the dutch registrars are supported. We contacted two and they both informed us they never ever had a request for using their api with blesta.
     
    Maybe if the bullet points mentioned above change we might look again at Blesta but at this point it would be 4 times as expensive for us to start using blesta than to start using whmcs.

    Dominick got a reaction from Michael in Improving The Translation Project   
    The reason why I think the translate.blesta project takes more time to translate is because I have to use to click to go to the next page,
    I often contribute to projects because I like my solutions to be in Dutch and Dutch isn't always available, Editing straight into a text file or use the POedit app increases the productivity because my hands can stay on the keyboard and it's just 'go with the flow'
     
     
    I thought that too so I talked to several people I know who also have small buz. regarding internet/hosting/design etc and they all know blesta and several of them use it for their english speaking clientele but dont use it for their dutch clientele (audience) because the translation is such a pain in the .... And I agree, I recently purchased myself a license for idevaffiliate and instead of translating that one to dutch I simply purchased the dutch language file.
     
     I also believe this is indeed a great option, and wmaybe even integrate a checkbox to 'use google translation'. I often use google to translate api docs to english (from dutch) and google often nails the translation, at least dutch <-> english.

    Hi,
     
    Blesta only has been translated to my language for 13% so I am eager to help,
    I translated other solutions so I thought it would be again using a code editor and downloading the language files straight on the server, zipping them and uploading them somewhere,
    However there seems to be an entire blesta translation project going on; nice idea!
     
    However, it's taking me several times as long as editing straight in the files because the page has to load after each sentence/word.
     
    My question:
    - If I translate the language files via my editor, can I somehow upload them into the translate project for others to improve?
    - Is it possible to get 20/30 sentences/words shown at the same time?
     
    I really wanna help translate blesta but I find this way very time consuming and not very productive...

    Hi,
     
    We were recently introduced to pushover via one of our support systems that integrated this in an update and I really like it,
    You simply get a notification on your phone about all kinds of messages or changes. I believe this would also be a great feature for  blesta for example when support request need an answer or when orders are placed.
