12. © Novell Inc, Confidential & Proprietary History…. Why it started? Director is a very good framework, with out of the box developer experience. It’s weakness is, missing the out of the box end user experience. Director is dificult to sell as it is, client business managers needs and pains are not met. Studio functionality is purely based on client business users feedback and not on technical requirements. Reduce intranet implementation time (Down to 15 man/days)
