    Mike54 got a reaction from Matt in Best Move I Ever Made   
    BSchwarz and I have been teasing back and forth on Twitter these last few days about purchasing licenses and converting from vB. (Don't tell him, but I think he's become addicted to IPB. ;))

    But it really isn't a joke, after all. Whilst he's buying licenses at the rate of two a day, I just jumped in the deep end and purchased four licenses up front. I figured if I was in for a penny, I was in for a pound. (OK, OK, so I'm addicted to IPB as well. :blush:)

    I was with vB just shy of five years, so I don't have the history with vB that BSchwarz does. But five years is a long time, so you can imagine how hard it was to make the decision to leave. I posted a random tweet about looking seriously into switching over to IPB and within a few minutes, both Matt and Charles were there answering questions for me. I hope they both know what a positive impact that made on me.

    BSchwarz is braver than I, so I opted to pay for conversions on my sites. Site #1 is set up for tomorrow! (w00t) But I did set up a test site so I could start learning. Wow, am I ever impressed with the software. It has a very polished and professional feel to it vB has never had. The scripts all integrate so well with one another and IP.Content is incredible. The blessing is the learning curve is much more gentle than I had anticipated. I admit I was reluctant to give up vBSEO, but when I realized that was the only reason I was staying with vB, my decision was already made for me.

    Between the help Matt and Charles provided, the 'feel' of the software and this friendly community, I have to agree with BSchwarz. This is the best move I ever made. You can certainly list my name in the Satisfied Customers column.
