I writing for no other reason than to simply state I cannot believe how much ExpressionEngine kicks ass. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, blammo… out comes 1.5 with built in e-commerce and — holy moly — specific custom field instructions for the client. I’m working on a number of sites, only one of which is using ExpressionEngine, and right now it’s the only site I’m getting excited about. For the first time, whatever crazy ideas go on in my head can actually make it onto the web without kicking and screaming.

I will never, ever, ever, ever work on a site again without devoting at least an hour of my sales presentation to obtaining an ExpressionEngine license. You guys rock.

Our college Web site, parisjc.edu, recently won the “Silver Medallion Award” (second place) in Region 4 of the National Council on Marketing and Public Relations. It turns out the region is quite large, stretching from Texas to Wyoming and west to Colorado, and includes some institutions much larger than ours.

It’s a nice honor, though I consider it a stroke of luck since I know I’m no whiz-bang designer.

I also know it would not have been possible without the features and ease of use ExpressionEngine brought to the task. So the work you guys put into your product does indeed pay off for its users.

Just wanted to let you know and say thanks, again, for such a fine product.

I love ExpressionEngine and ExpressionEngine 1.4 rocks. I was lucky enough to participate in the private beta, and boy was it hard not to get online and say how great this or that new feature is.

I consider ExpressionEngine a major tool in my web solutions arsenal. Forget training clients how to do FTP or use Dreamweaver. I now just start most of my clients off with ExpressionEngine. I always feel effusive when reading about it. I feel like Lea, ExpressionEngine joins the list of technologies I’m willing to fawn over. That includes my PowerBook, my iPod Nano, iMovie, iTunes, FileMaker, BBEdit, and Delicious Library.

It really is a great tool. While it may not be perfect for every job, its a swiss army knife for 75%-85% of the jobs I get.

We’ve just used EE for the first time on one project and I have to say that I can see us using it more and more.

I think one of its greatest assets is the flexibility it offers, in particular for non-techinical clients to use. Having used several CMS/blogging tools this was one of the simplest to pick up from scratch and get to do what we wanted.

I’m looking forward to the next project that needs it.

I have fallen in love with ExpressionEngine over the past few months. It has allowed me to take on numerous new projects that before I would have had to turn down, not really being a back end developer.

ExpressionEngine is now my CMS of choice for clients and I am doing some exciting new projects with it right now. I recommend people give the Core version a go as it is free and there is still a decent amount of features included. The speed you can develop sites is another thing worth mentioning. There is much more there the meets the eye with ExpressionEngine and I recommend it to anyone.
