Liferay Community (CE) vs Enterprise Edition (EE)

Why convince your Liferay customers

One of the major difference of Liferay CE is that its free, licensed under LGPL and distributed "as is" does that mean we should tell our customer to go ahead with CE.
Where as Liferay EE is not free but:
  • Security and bug fixes.
  • Subscription & support package.
  • Hardened for security.
  • Designed to be rock solid stable.
  • Stable version of the product that is offered over an extended period of time.
  • Direct access to engineering-grade technical support.
  • Training and support tools.
  • Additional features within Liferay.
Being a Liferay partner we have an option of proposing Liferay as a solution to our customer and helps them get a discount on there overall cost that varies from region to region.

You might have faced the following issues in your clients production environment while using Liferay CE:
  1. Server is running very slow.
  2. Memory Out - Error.
  3. Heap space Issues.
  4. Reduced concurrent User scale.
    and..... so many more.
It truly boils down to the Non Functional Requirements that you or your organization commit to the client. In some case's the clients them self's have no idea and believe your organization is best to understand there needs.

I recommend "don't propose some thing today and not being able to show face tomorrow".

If it works, it could eventually transform communication among speakers of the world’s 6,000-plus languages. The company has already created an automatic system for translating text on computers, which is being honed by scanning millions of multi-lingual websites and documents. So far it covers 52 languages, adding Haitian Creole last week. Google also has a voice recognition system that enables phone users to conduct web searches by speaking commands into their phones rather than typing them in. Now it is working on combining the two technologies to produce software capable of understanding a caller’s voice and translating it into a synthetic equivalent in a foreign
