Question 44:
What aspects of CF keep you and/or your company using it? (Check all that apply)**
The answers don't make sense the way the question is asked
Thanks for putting this together each year. We appreciate your hard work and dedication to the community!
Would love to know if Adobe is going to update the CFExchange tags since MS is ending support for Basic Auth.
The questions have been modernised since the last time I looked at this (which was last year, I think). Good work.
Still waiting for full SQL support for query of queries (especially left join)
I am french, need to know if they are Lucee users in France, and also CF users.
To get a nearer relation.
Continue with your great work! I was very positively moved by your talks about cold depression. It's been a great help!
The entire cfml universe needs so much improvement with the onboarding of new developers. From a newbie perspective, its not very inviting or easy or modern.
When you ask Standard or Enterprise, also ask how many servers and instances are run in production. Would like to know the scale of production installs. One standard? One enterprise with 2 or 3 instances? 10 enterprise servers, 8 instances per server?
We are moving away from CFML. I wish it would be open sourced by adobe. It's time to move on. Personally I am already know the .NET which allows me to have better career and better salary.
It was a good survey. I really liked the questions. We are a community in Turkey employing approximately 500 people. We have been developing Workcube for 20 years. We love the Coldfusion community.
Feel like CF hit bottom a few years back and is having a modest resurgence. But it's not new people sadly, but people coming back to CF because it now offers features it previously lacked that forced them to leave the community.
There's a real opportunity for CF to gain popularity with Lambda/serverless as the easy to use solution. I'm hopeful but realistic they might fumble the opportunity.
We're currently beginning the transition from CF <= 2016 on three different OSs to CF 2021 on Windows.
Answers based on previous employer. Working with CF was harmful to my career because of low usage. Now working with node.js express. So nice to use same language in both front and back.
Convert the survey to be a mobile-first or friendly typeform type experience.
Organize the questions between mandatory and optional
Ask what people are looking for in 2022 from Lucee/CF
Thanks for all your work in doing this 🙂
ColdFusion is supposedly on a comeback trajectory. Is there any evidence to support this rumor?
Might be a good idea to ask if the person answering does only in house work (ie, a developer for a company that has a lot of Coldfusion projects) or works in a code shop that does CF work for client companies, or is an independent contractor. Also in addition to salary, ask what hourly rate contractors make. I've done both and it's a pretty big difference.
Check to see if participant is actually using cold fusion right at the start and curtail survey if they are not..
Adobe too slow fixing the bugs and far behind the features, tools compare to NodeJS. Plus license cost is too high. Coldfusion perceive as dead language.
No - thanks for coordinating it
Most of us in my small local CF community feel that Adobe is not fully committed to CF. It does not market it as a great alternative to existing platforms, it is very slow to launch new versions compatible with new OS versions, its cloud/serverless offering is lacking, it is slow to adopt trends (i.e.: it will probably take it about 5 more years to integrate with the Ethereum blockchain and NFTs), they no longer support visual development with Dreamweaver, and many other little things.
