Guests - Ferdinand Rios and David Corrales from SAPIEN
Chatroom Highlights:
For anyone new to the chatroom, please place ## in front of questions for the guests so Jon and Jason can easily see them, THX
would you say Primal Script userbase were among the core early adopters of Powershell?
Are SAPIEN concerned that if Microsoft were to start building more support into Visual Studio for PowerShell (and many of us believe they should), it might start removing a lot of the requirements people have for tools such as PowerShell Studio?
Good point raised about WPF, was there a reason PowerShell Studio uses WinForms and not WPF as well? (or it might now and I may have missed that?)
Is it too late in CY2014 for User Groups to get Dr. Rios scheduled for visit? We had him scheduled earlier but bad weather didn’t allow it to happen.
I’ve been reading up on and would like to set up an internal PowerShellGet repository. Does sapien have products to help facilitate this or similar?
Why are the price points of the Sapien tools so high? PrimalScript and PowerShell Studio are nearly $400 apiece, more expensive than professional versions of Office, Windows and Visual Studio. Is this targeted at corporate customers, or individuals?
that concept would work well in our environmet. only 2-3 scripters and 10-14 sys admins who don’t want to climb the learning curve. ability to easily create apps for internal modules would be nice
Thursday May 29th, guests on the PowerScripting Podcast will be Steve Hall and Alan Sharp-Paul from http://www.scriptrock.com/ Please join us at 9:30 PM EDT.
