I think there is probably a significant community out there using CCS for everyday business. I think the community is probably far, far greater than what is reflected in the traffic in this forum.

CCS Version: 5
Used For: A variety of internal web-based business apps for a charitable non profit
Primary Language: ASP.NET VB - InMotion

This is not a toy for us.
we have application for 6 Big Bank Corporation and 5 Small Bank
Aplications for 42 Companies Lawyers
Aplications for more than 11 Gyms
Entry Control Access System
we have like 12 Different Aplication that talk to ASTERISK VOIP
Aplication for Goverment Company Statistic and Money Control
Like 100 Company Pages Designed with our Custom CMS ( i hate this but we have to) not worth the $$ in time consume.
IVR Developed for ASTERISK installed in Insurane Company and Banks. Totly Done with CCS
Call Managment System
Few Invoice System.
Routine and Medical Examination.
Sale Managment System for big Multinational like ABBOT, GOLD'S GYM, AOP, HEINEKEN, CHIVAS REGAL,PFIZER(viagra) and others
My Company has a Programer team of 4 People with CCS License, Plus my License.
(we dont buy the License as a Company, Programer need to pay forit)
Application for more than 10 Country all over the word.
our CRM is fully Customable for any type of company
as you can see is not a toy for us. we have around 10 years using CCS.
All is Done with CCS4 but the graph system, since must of the marked is IPAD used by salesman and people outside office (and flash not able for IPAD) we use Javascript Graphic Addon. (more friendly for any kind of TablePAD)
Even the Support is not 100% good, i dont think you will find another Application like this one
(Easy and Speed)
NOTE: The CCS Learning Curve is really a PAIN so. sometime people just give up

Used to be:
- Mortgage Banking Quality Control for small-mid-large size companies, including largest banks in the world. Also, large government financial institutions.
- .Net, IIS 7.5 on Windows 2008 R2
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008
- 4 licenses
We don't use CCS for active development anymore. Yes Software unresponsiveness scared my management to death. After silence from Yes for a couple of years we gave up and moved to MVC and Visual Studio 2010.
Now we have twice more developers for the same task moving slower than with CCS, but my management is much happier because we are backed up by company that doesn't disappear for years.
I'm monitoring this forum because I like CCS even though I don't develop on CCS anymore.

Vasily - you may want to reconsider.
I am an experienced .NET developer - going back to the very first 1.0 beta Framework.
No doubt, CCS saves tons of time over developing .NET apps from scratch.
Yes - the company doesn't focus on PR, but - they are definitely there. 5.0 demonstrates
the life of the product, and the fact is - while they don't necessarily participate here, people who purchase support licenses Do get support. I have already had a Ton of questions answered by the company very promptly.
I'm very glad I got back in the CCS boat.
While the .NET framework has evolved substantially over the years, it's Still a PITA
to do very basic stuff, compared to working with a good RAD tool like CCS.

I have been using old Codecharge and all versions of CCS up to 4.3 (thinking about getting v5 after yes will clean up most of the bugs).
I use CCS mostly as data provider with my own designs (PHP & ASP)
I found that Artisteer's styles to be very heavy and also time consuming to modify.
Projects: ecommerce websites for small businesses, inventory tracking systems, online quatation system with dynamic PDF docs generation for electronic parts brokers, online PDF brochures/postcard design & printing + more...
California, US

I am a longtime user of CCS, but I went away from it for a couple of years since the product looked to be dead. Now that there seems to be life I have chosen this for a big project for a company to manage the deployment and in-field updates to a specialized sensor, that's about all I can say but management is very impressed with the result of what I have so far. Other than that I have used CCS for all kinds of internal web projects, never a public facing site though. The current project uses mysql, sqlite, php and (of all things) perl. the sensor has a small web server running cgi and the perl target is what I am using for that.

I too am a longtime CC user pre studio. I've done everything and CC has taught me so much.
I've built learning systems for the government, fleet managment systems for Toyota, Parts location apps, so many things.
For apps you can't touch it. I love it. Would never build a web site with it.
I won't be upgrading as I can't see the benefit.
So for no I'll stick with 4.3

Developed a cloud accounting service www.ezyaccounts.com for small and mid size organisations. Developed in Australia for use globally.
Used CCS for 4 years (PHP, MySQL) and recently upgraded to Version 5 converting almost 400 pages. A few pages did not convert, seems to be something to do with panels. Custom styles had to be exported from V4 then imported into V5 as simply copying does not work.
It's great to see that YesSoftware are committed to upgrading CCS and actively supporting a very capable toolset. This effort is really appreciated!
My most important request now is for the Report Generator to include page breaks after groups.

I have had CCS since the early 3 versions. I use it as a hobby/work. I have made some websites for a few groups including forums, stores, informational pages, and some lab submission forms that print the accession forms in a pdf. Strangely, the lab has no way to let you enter information online, match it up with an accession number on the samples and mail it. Even if I enter online, print pdf, they will retype it when it gets to the lab.
I am switching to CCS5 and really like what Artisteer and CCS5 have done.

CCS versions 3, 4, and soon to be 5.
Mysql, Postgres, with PHP
I have created a Student Portfolio System and what we call an Accountability System to track our students from the time they enter our college until after they leave. Primarily developed to help us meet our accreditation requirements which we did last year with flying colors.
I would never have been able to do what we needed done without a tool like CCS.

Using CCS since version 2.x. Love/Hate the tool. Love how fast I can create or modify an application. Hate that it crashes so much. ALWAYS save often!! Greg and Helen do a great job of support, just may take them a couple of days to get back with the solution. Artisteer added a whole new demension for me. I don't want to know a lot about CSS. I am an Applications Designer/Developer and don't want to spend a lot of time on making a page look pretty. And I am a Joomla user, so I can have a common look using Artisteer.
I will buy CCS 5, but will not use it until 5.1 comes out. Being a single developer for a company that should have 2 more, I don't have the time to convert from 4.3 to 5 and then find there are lots of problems that require redesign.
Other than that, I really like CCS and will stick with them for the long haul.
35+ years slinging code and still learning....

To Whom it may concern.
We have developed a Content Management System (KrisonAV CMS) with Codecharge Studio 5 and Artisteer.
Since the list of its capabilities if quite long and is often updated, please visit http://www.krisonav.com/index.php?module=articles_show&...=61&itemid=1276 for more info.
Moreover you can find available screenshots at http://www.krisonav.com/index.php?module=ajax_fetch&ite..._id=screenshots
Please download the free fully functional open source version from http://www.krisonav.com
Below is a list of some nice websites built with KrisonAV CMS:
http://ferienprofi-lanzarote.com/ http://6dim-xanth.xan.sch.gr/ http://www.fakty.sk/ http://www.kappos.gr/ http://4dim-xanth.xan.sch.gr/ http://jinsongtrading.com/ http://golfaddons.com/ http://www.yemencalling.com/ http://getskynet.com/ http://comunigest.com/ http://www.neurolan.es/ http://balaustreslosvolcanes.com/ http://cashlee.es/ http://www.montanaclub.es/ http://grupochacon.com/new/index.php

Hey Waspman!!!
Glad to see you are still around. Many have jumped the CCS ship over the long wait for CCS5.
I do gotta tell you that CCS5 with Artisteer 3.1+ rocks. I finally upgraded and it was worth it.
Here is an example of what you can do with this set of tools.

It is interesting to see a lot of names that went away and returned with V5.
I have used it very little on outside projects but most work has been continuing the expansion of a backend and web facing tour company that I am a partner in. It started with CC 1.0 way back and I've upgraded each time until currently on V5.
As a non-programmer, it is amazing how completely it has solved the complex problems of creating tours, scheduling tickets/appointment times for museums, assigning guides, creating visa invitations, filing reports in 2 languages, creating tickets on-line, booking, credit card processing, generating dozens of required reports, on-demand PDF tour color tour guide books that are assembled automatically from stock page files each of 250 venues, museums and palaces, a blog, an agent affiliate program and all the accounting tasks related to having 142 agencies booking directly in their own web-account, mobile access with iPads at the port terminal to log in arriving cruise ship passengers and many other tasks. It works really well, and generates about $6,000,000 in direct web site sales each summer. As far as I know we are still the only tour operator to automate almost all tasks related to creating, booking and conducting customized tours in this field.
I just started my own independent tour company, much smaller, and using CCS to build a shopping cart with dynamic tour itineraries, ticketing and reporting to handle every task in the office. Still, a non-programmer, but have no doubt it will work and soon because I've done it before and this one will be simpler with more specialized programs that will be easier to automate.
To say it has been a wise investment is an understatement. My first purchase of CC way back was due to be sent SPAM which by luck clicked on the ad and was intrigued. I had just been asked to create a library inventory system for a large archive of manuscripts and recordings for a Zen center, about 100,000 tape recordings and original documents. I bought CC and did a crude system using my first use of MySQL and PHP. It was not fancy but worked, and was done in a week. CC was fast and simple to work with. Events were not so easy to work with as in CCS but simple DB tasks were a snap. That lead to another request for a library system for documents from Nepal from the Dali Lama's compound. I did that and later redesigned it using CCS. That lead to a tape restoration project that consumed a year of recovering old tapes for two Buddhist sects for which I created a side business of recovery of analog tapes for archives and museums. My business had been in the record business so that fit pretty much to my experience better than building web and cloud applications that I am doing with my own projects.
I imagine these projects never would have been done at all if YesSoftware had not sent me that SPAM years ago. And I am still not a programmer. I bought V5 even though I liked and had no problems with V4. Somethings are slower to accomplish(more key strokes) in v5 but it grows on you quickly.

Yep still around knocking out CCS stuff, although don't do websites with it.
I use it with Foundation 3 cos is responsive.
Won't be upgrading, don't like Artisteer
In the process of trying Wakanda and Wavemake. First impressions are that they are no where near as good as CCS:)
Still don't think YES get the recognition they deserve for this brilliant product:)
