HOSTING 321, LLC.
After discontinuing Windows-based hosting due to the high cost of
software, our clients are thrilled with Apache::ASP and they swear ASP
it's faster than before. Installation was a snap on our 25-server web
farm with a small shell script and everything is running perfectly! The
documentation is very comprehensive and everyone has been very helpful
during this migration.
Thank you!

I would like to say that your ASP module rocks :-) We have practically
stopped developing in anything else about half a year ago, and are now
using Apache::ASP extensively. I just love Perl, and whereever we are
not "forced" to use JSP, we chose ASP. It is fast, reliable, versatile,
documented in a way that is the best for professionals - so thank you
for writting and maintaining it!

WebTime
As we have seen with WebTime, Apache::ASP is not only good for the
development of website, but also for the development of webtools. Since
I first discoverd it, I made it a must-have in my society by taking
traditional PHP users to the world of perl afficionados.
Having the possibility to use Apache::ASP with mod_perl or mod_cgi make
it constraintless to use because of CGI's universality and perl's
portability.

First, I just want to say that I am very very impressed with
Apache::ASP. I just want to gush with praise after looking at many other
implementations of perl embedded code and being very underwhelmed. This
is so damn slick and clean. Kudos! ...
... I'm very pleased how quickly I've been able to mock up the
application. I've been writing Perl CGI off and on since 1993(!) and I
can tell you that Apache::ASP is a pleasure. (Last year I tried Zope and
just about threw my computer out the window.)

Working in a team environment where you have HTML coders and perl
coders, Apache::ASP makes it easy for the HTML folks to change the look
of the page without knowing perl. Using Apache::ASP (instead of another
embedded perl solution) allows the HTML jockeys to use a variety of HTML
tools that understand ASP, which reduces the amount of code they break
when editing the HTML. Using Apache::ASP instead of M$ ASP allows us to
use perl (far superior to VBScript) and Apache (far superior to IIS).
We've been very pleased with Apache::ASP and its support.
Planet of Music
Apache::ASP has been a great tool. Just a little background.... the
whole site had been in cgi flat files when I started here. I was looking
for a technology that would allow me to write the objects and NEVER
invoke CGI.pm... I found it and hopefuly I will be able to implement
this every site I go to.
When I got here there was a huge argument about needing a game engine
and I belive this has been the key... Games are approx. 10 time faster
than before. The games don't break anylonger. All in all a great tool
for advancement.

Cine.gr
...we ported our biggest yet ASP site from IIS (well, actually rewrote),
Cine.gr and it is a killer site. In some cases, the whole thing got
almost 25 (no typo) times faster... None of this would ever be possible
without Apache::ASP (I do not ever want to write ``print "<HTML>\n";''
again).
