@milton: it's a phony excuse for being "bad at marketing" (which you claim and then cite your excellent SEO results) and kind of shoehorned in here to CYA, but your work with refuges sounds awesome and commendable. It's a great use of your product and talking about that more on your blog would be fantastic to read.
- songzme 14y agoThanks Boise, I wholeheartedly agree and I quoted you verbatim in my response. ;D
- milton_vsee 14y ago@Boise, please believe the following is the sincere truth :) 1. i am BAD at marketing. vsee does not have hundreds of millions of users. vsee uses managed peer-to-peer secure streaming to allow massive scalability but without the security downsides of skype. my goal is to create a tool that can impact millions of people. i have tried all sort of things to get marketing traction - and they have mostly failed - ie - we don't have millions of users yet. 2. we have a lot of competitors - so I get asked all the time how is vsee different from X. We wrote those articles to help our customers decide. We actually try to be fair in the articles - why we always include why they shouldn't use vsee. We are also the ONLY company that includes a list of our competitors on our home page (see the bottom :). I know vsee is not ideal for all users - so they should be able to learn all the options. 3. this marketing tactic is working a little (but not at the scale we would like). ie - we steal a lot of customers from tokbox. if you search 'opentok alternative' we are the first one :) if our goal is to compete w/ OpenTok - you may say we are great at marketing - but on the large scale - we are pretty bad since we don't have hundreds of millions of users.
