I definitely have a love/hate relationship with Sharepoint. Before getting the right backup processes in place, I lost a site as well. But as I mentioned in my post, Sharepoint was already integrated into the client's enterprise system. So it made a lot of sense to look at it here. If it hadn't worked out for them, there would have been many other quality options (open source and otherwise) to look at. Thanks for the comment!

But don't use sharepoint, argh. I ran a sharepoint installation in my youth and came to regret it. We lost everything, a couple years worth of work and if you need something custom, could there be anything harder. Look toward open source young man. I agree, why reinvent the wheel.

One of the things that I like about Timeforce is the web based system allows employees to see their timecards, time off accruals, and even request time off. I believe that a self-service portal is crucial to an effective time and attendance system. It looks like a nice product, but I didn’t look at Tensor because it’s a UK company.

There is no point in pouring money into certifications that are completely unrelated. It makes no sense. My focus is Web Analytics and Intelligence but i have a background in Computer Science. I am shying away from the vendor-based certifications because they don't always tell employers that you've got the actual foundation to do the job. As a computer guy, there is now enough roads that a person can and should focus in an area and for myself that is Web Analytics and Intelligence. Excellent article. It reminds me of one i wrote on another one of my sites... http://webmasterfarms.com/2007/10/10/visual-sciences-web-analytics-certifications-are-they-worth-it/ Talk soon, Luc Arnold Hello,
