Go Ahead...Try our Portal

Vignette will now let you download and try out its Vignette Application Portal (VAP) for free. We think this speaks volumes about the difference between the CMS and Portal marketplaces at the enterprise tier. Vignette is banking that you can install VAP with minimal help and develop at least lightweight portal functionality before your two-month trial period runs out. Not so with Vignette V7 or -- to be fair -- any other enterprise-tier CMS, none of which can be sampled on a trial basis, to our knowledge. Vignette should be lauded for its approach here, but the move may also represent a subtle shift in the company to lead with its Portal (an easier sale at a lower price point), then try later to get you to buy its content management capabilities as well...
