Hi, does anyone here uses or used the "IntranetFactory Modeler"? We are considering using the free version but we do not know how reliable it is or what type of issues I should expect. here is the link of the product am referring to. http://intranetfactory.com/IntranetModeler.aspx If you can share your experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. John

Note to all: As this product is for both SP 2007 and SP 2010, only experiences with the SP 2007 version are relevant here in this forum. Moderator pre-SP 2010 forums SP 2010 "FAQ" (mainly useful links): http://wssv4faq.mindsharp.com/default.aspx WSS3/MOSS FAQ (FAQ and Links) http://wssv3faq.mindsharp.com/default.aspx Both also have links to extensive book lists and to (free) on-line chapters

As per Mike's clarification, I've used this for both flavours of SharePoint but will only share my 2007 experiences. I found this to be a useful tool when looking at concept modelling a few months back or for wireframing but less so when actually utilizing the output. You start off modelling your site in an multi-tab Silverlight Application, which can then output this into either wireframe or an actual template for use within your SP2007 farm. it's strength comes in the fact its easy to use, excellent value when looking at rapid prototyping and wireframe visualisation. I found it a little weak when working with the output as some of the webparts references are parts of the full suite and I had to tweak a lot of the generated output. I didn't see much activity on the support forums either.Steven Andrews | SharePoint Professional | http://www.twitter.com/backpackerd00d | https://baron72.wordpress.com/
