Interesting... on the one hand, $1500+/month seems like crazy money for a CMS to a hacker (particularly when you could, of course, build at least 90% of any given page fairly easily - though I'm not so sure about the "studio", infrastructure, etc.)

BUT - to your average BigCo (which, at least judging from the Customers page, is the target market), a few $k/month is a rounding error in the coffee budget - particularly when compared with the labor costs for a "webmaster" whose job often consists of 20% content production and 80% helping the Marketing department use Wordpress.

"Market at the speed of social"

Oh my god fire your copywriter this minute.

"Design and publish websites, social pages, and mobile experiences in lightning speed with the first Web CMS in the cloud. It's built for social, so you can easily add Twitter streams, Facebook likes, and more."

And his boss.
