About Web Business Builder

[ccto]

We see a Web Business Builder in your official site, is it the next version of Web Presence Builder?
Or how about the future of Web Presence Builder?

We have noticed this too, there seems to be a distinct lack of forum activity for WPB from Odin and outstanding issues with WPB being ignored (such as file updates in IE) ? As a paying customer some clarification would be nice...

Hi Both,

I've finally heard back from Odin and it appears that Web Presence Builder is to be discontinued (or moved into 'maintenance updates only' service for a few months before being officially EOL) and Web Business Builder is the new piece of software which will be priced per end-user site and will only be compatible with Plesk (no standalone or cPanel versions available)

Hi Jay

Have they given any indication if there willl be an upgrade path for users on Web Presence Builder to Business Builder?

Thanks.

There is rumoured to be an upgrade path for Plesk users, but details haven't been finalised just yet - they're hoping to have more info next month.

Web Business Builder is currently in use over at www.yola.com - sign up for a free account if you want to take it for a test drive!

thanks we have already signed up and had a look, I really hope there is a way to migrate WPB users over! Also there doesn't appear to be a way to download and upload snapshots in Business Builder which could be a big issue for us as we use that a lot in WPB.

I feel sad about this
