Marketing

The following is a collection of various ideas, data or files for promoting SMC, learning more about its users and gathering various feedback, distribution, etc.

Key Features / What SMC does for you?

Software:

  • No installation and no upgrades necessary. (drawback: what about breaking code?)
  • No licensing fees: open-source.
  • Run your own software inside your project.

Zero configuration: start one of the project types and you are ready to go.

Backup:

All your data is periodically saved (technical term: "snapshot") and stored (+ encrypted??) off-site. This is like a safety net for everything you do and run.

On top of that, you can use established revision control systems like Git, Mercurial, SVN, ...

Summary:

No time is wasted with setting up the environment to actually do the work or having to restore your working environment after a hard drive crash, system corruption, virus, etc.
