I loved using MPA3 & MAS at Shane's World; it took me maybe an hour of poking around in the programs to learn how to use them, and their support has always been nothing short of spectacular. The only issue I had with either system is that there are some pages that contain typos (can you say "OCD"? I knew you could!). With that said, I hereby offer my proofreading services to Mansion. :1orglaugh

Never having used NATS or Carma, I've nothing to say one way or the other about their programs.

True, we did not expose the licensee, This is due to confidentiality clauses in our agreements with all our customers, nor are we permitted to reveal any information about any of our customers unless they permit us too. That said, we did make sure that their program was Frozen the second we saw what they where planning to do and then closed it the next day after speaking to our lawyers first!

Don't you think that with the heat we got for this 4 years ago ( and yes, it is now 4 years ago since we took this away ) that mpa3 would be the safest program to use in the business. We are getting audited all the time by a lot of people, and if we ever accepted something like this we would go down hard ! Trust me when I say that it will never happen! We have worked too hard for too long for something like this to happen! 27 families are depending on salaries they draw from Mansion every month and we would never do anything that could hurt our business. That is also the reason why we did not go publick with the name of the program we shut down.

As for " yet to see an apology publicly " That is NOT true. Do a history search here on GFY and you will see that we have done that several times already.

I am sure that I'm not the only one who has done something really stupid in my life. But we have learned, and since then Mansion has grown tremendously and more great news is due very soon :-)

I hope by this Dre that you accept my apology and that we soon can start thinking about the future and begin to put the past behind us.

Garry and Oystein have great technology, they're honest and super-reliable. We've got a lot at stake I wouldn't entrust our business to anybody else.

I've talked to Gary for the first time. He explained me his point of view, and how it changed (he thought of program as his clients, then realised webmasters were actually driving the market).

And publicly apologized in this thread about the MPA2 shave feature.

Everything is A+.

I wanted to see theses words : '"I apologize for the shave feature". And I think we've seen the attitude change in this thread ;)

This was mostly what I was trying to explain from the start. I know for a facat that MPA + MAS are great products and never claimed they weren't or that NATS was better. (I've looked at both closely and they are both strong products.)

More than a poll, you need to make a decision based on your own needs. Price, features, even hotness :1orglaugh (I mean how comfortable you feel with the service, support and such)

You'd also inquire on custom solutions, or even packs like Mambo for CMS.

As for clickman's... dunno. I wouldn't advice to, but as I said before, you'd try different choices. We had a pretty unsatisfactory experience with them, to the point we ended using CCBill's own CC features and it worked way better than Clickman. And getting a mod done could take a lot of time. We ended with a full custom solution, more expensive than NATS and MPA3, but way more affordable in the long run and when adding more programs. However, I wouldn't recommend the custom way for processing, the optoions you mention are good enough :thumbsup

MPA3 is the way. The best affiliate software out there !

MPA3 simply because they're the only people I've had to deal with out of the two and they were great people to do business with.

If you are starting up a serious affiliate program but lack experience I would most certenly go with MPA3. The support is superb, which is important since you in all cases need support to get started. Remember that the learnign curve is steap for all kinds of advanced software. The Mansion software has prooven to be extremely stable and fast. When you get the hang of it you will find that you'll never lack any kind of functionality. You will allso most certanly see that everything you do inside the menues is really well thougt through in terms of usability and serviceability. The help menues are allso very good and self explaining.

For MAS i would just say.. after you have started to use that you will curse yourself for not getting it before you did.

And last but not least.. The mansion design team rock's the world!!!

So guess in which direction my vote went..

i dont promote mpa progams unless I HAVE to

I already know, Alleyboy will go with NATS.

wow the poll is close

Oh, almost missed this one.

I love my MAS, it rocks. It doesn?t happen often that I cheer for a product that I pay for as much as I do. In addition to the product being great, the service rocks. It is like the foam on an excellent cappuccino.

I haven't met John, but it's not easy to find better guys then Garry!
Him and Oystein are running a excellent company, and all my dealings with them regarding MPA3 and MAS have been top class.

Their support department are great, and the few problems we've faced have been taken care of quickly.

Not to say anything bad about NATS, but I just don't have any experience with them.

Just look at Oy and his norwegian Locks of hair ....need I say more

Bahahahaha

yes, however you'll see there are a few MPA3 supporters signing for this thread or posting for the first time in months/years :winkwink:

For teh record, I voted "Shut Up Faggot!" :1orglaugh

funny stuff :)
