Product Info Reviews

Description:

NetObjects Fusion 5.0 provides a what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSWYG) interface, good for building business Web sites without HTML expertise. A great tool that makes the process quick and easy, NetObjects includes a variety of predefined styles, with graphics for banners, buttons, horizontal lines, and navigation bars. (Unfortunately, as usual with such predefined styles, most are too garish for business use.)

A warning before continuing: in testing this product, it crashed twice, the second crash resulting in a significant loss of data. Most frustrating, the company provided no option for phone support, and the online support was woefully inadequate.

But if you are new to Web publishing, NetObjects Fusion is still a very good tool to get you started. The crashes we encountered came in testing some Javascript features, which can easily be left out of simple Web sites. The program also comes with literature for a whole host of add-in products that make creating your first Web site even easier. If you are an experienced Web developer, you may want to look at Allaire's Homesite 4.0, but for beginners looking for a robust Web authoring tool, NetObjects Fusion is a strong choice for business application. --Rob Frankland
