Yeah whatever, what comparable products? there are no
comparable products when you compare real world
trading functionality.

Good Morning Omega Users:
Taking all the complaining and emotionalism out, here
is what you got.
A PRODUCT THAT SHOULD STILL BE IN BETA TESTING.
This is fact. Omega has seen real competition come
into a market they had
dominated for years. In my opinion, they have been
under the gun and running
scared of the competition for the last year. They see
comparable products at
half the price. Their market share is probably
declining in midst of the
biggest growth period of individual traders in
history.
Omega has not been able to keep pace in the face of
rising complexity. The
consumer wants high-quality products at low prices and
they want them NOW.
Every business, whether it's a producer of products
and services, or a
supplier to that producer, has to deal with shrinking
time to market while
keeping quality high and price low.
Omega has not been able to shrink it's product cycle.
Updates, revisions and
new products take longer and longer and with lower
quality each time.
I believe Bill and Ralph Cruz had a cutting edge idea,
at the right time. It
is easy to mark success, when you do not have
competition. Success
initially, is measured by how much money you make, at
least until
competition comes about. Then, it turns to the ability
to manage your lead
in the industry and the value you bring to your
customer. As the competition
grew, they have not displayed the ability to manage
this complexity. They
do not have the business intelligence to let go, and
turn the reins over to
more qualified leadership. My father once told me, the
difference between a
good leader and a great leader is a great leader knows
his limitations,
admits them, and find the resources to overcome them.
The consumer has an extremely negative view of this
company. They are where
the future revenues will come from, not from analysts
expectations.
The time has come for Bill and Ralph to bow out. If
not, they may face a
declining business environment at Omega Research and
lose what they have
already built.
Please, for once try listening to the market place.
Respectfully,
Richard Chehovin
