    If another developer asked you why you use EE and/or why they should look at it, what would be your top three reasons?

    Mine are -

    1. Allows me to design and code how I choose
    2. Professional support
    3. Data manipulation features that allow me to compete with bigger agencies

    I am coming from a newer users perspective so perhaps the more experienced among you will have other or better reasons!

    - powerful, flexible, does not get in my way, lets me do things the way I want to do them, add-on architecture
    - great support and community, regular updates, professional security
    - the price is right

    Now, perhaps these are more than three reasons, but at least I grouped them.

    flexibility
    ease of use
    support

    support is rated last on my list, not cause i dont LIKE the support, i truly do, but i find that reading through the docs, wiki, forum and knowledgebase has helped me MORE than my own requests for help. as time goes on, i spend more time reading threads and getting new ideas than i do asking for help. chances are, many other users have asked the same questions - Search! is my friend.
