Devs are Expensive
Hosting can be Expensive
Money Time SupportTime to Market
Steep Learning Curve
Release Cycle
Lots of Configs
Bloat: Performance
Poor Documentation
“Half-Cooked” Developers
Spotty Community
Open Source Hibigeebies
Long Release Cycles
Dude-ruled
Updates are not “One Click”
Drush (enough said)

Let’s do
this in
Drupal!

“WE CAN’T AFFORD IT; IT’D BE TOO
EXPENSIVE”
Boss Client
Yes, and believe you
me… we’ll do what
ever it takes, including
cranking at night and
weekends, to make it
happen.
Yes, and we will not
charge you any extra
than we’ve already
talked about. Drupal is
the right option here.

“WE CAN’T AFFORD IT; IT’D BE TOO
EXPENSIVE”
Boss Client
Yes, and I’ve never
led you astray. This is
an investment and it
will expand what we
can do for our clients.
Yes, and after working
together for so long, you
know we wouldn’t be
recommending this unless
it wasn’t absolutely the
best option for this
project.
{intimacy}

“WE CAN’T AFFORD IT; IT’D BE TOO
EXPENSIVE”
Boss Client
Yes, and you know
me, I will not allow it
fail. This is an
investment and it will
expand what we can
do for our clients.
Yes, and we’ve had great
success with this
approach before. Drupal
is the best option here.
