    Hi folks,

    Being someone new to this forum, I'm a little surprised that e-consultancy have not upgraded their forum to a dedicated forum software such as v-bulletin.

    Is it my or anyone else, that finds the listing of discussions via the drop down not usability friendly? I've used vbulletin for a number of years and managed to scale sites that have a good page ranking in Google. I think e-consultancy should be at the forefront of engaging with users by providing a suitable medium for conversations to take place, otherwise I find it increasingly challenging to click on each category and then find a discussion that I may be interested in.

    Kind regards,
    Hanif Rehman

    Hi Hanif

    Yes, it is indeed time for us to upgrade the forum!

    We've been holding off doing it because we're currently redeveloping the entire site which is due to launch this August. So unfortunately we'll have to live with the existing forum until then but we hope the new version will be much more usable.

    We developing it in-house rather than using an external platform like vBulletin as it gives us greater scope to integrate it with the rest of the site.

    Regards

    Ashley
