Support Tiki in the 2010 Open Source CMS Market Share Survey

Rick - - ( Reads)

The 2010 Open Source CMS Market Share survey by water&stone is now open. The survey will be used to gather data for the third annual Open Source CMS Market Share Report. This is YOUR chance to help the Tiki Community grow.... and it only takes a few minutes. By participating in the survey, you can receive an advance copy of the final report.

While development and community activity has been quite high over the life of Tiki, (with 200+ code contributors, 800,000+ downloads, 50+ events, and such) until recently little effort had been put on Tiki branding and communications.

In the 2009 report, the authors stated that Tiki faces "...significant challenges in terms of brand strength and market share." The report went on say that "...it seems clear that if steps are not taken to stop the slide in interest levels and boost use, then the project faces significant challenges

In the past year, the Tiki Community has taken significant steps to improve the Tiki brand, visibility, and interest. Completing the survey and indicating your support for Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware will help to strengthen the Tiki Community.

Take the survey today, and support Tiki!
