I wish I had the benefit of hindsight while writing the review. Frankly, before writing the review I looked at your company's entire product portfolio. And I could make out that you have been doing other things as well, which means that the 5 year thing is not in isolation but a progression of efforts made during that time. I think the general tone of Romasha's email announcing the launch probably led me into this. Look forward to interacting with you some time in future. regards amit Hi Apurva,

Cynapse has been building collaboration, communication and productivity products for the last five years, in 'various shapes and sizes', for example an enterprise platform for collaborative applications, called Amieo, or an end user web/desktop/mobile based small information management service called SyncNotes. Technically, all these products including a few others like CMAS that were specifically marketed directly to other technology companies, share a lot of codebase, concepts and philosophy among each other. cyn.in essentially is the next generation product that replaces Amieo (at least in the majority of its markets, however we continue to selectively deliver Amieo for highly customized, very large requirements). That's basically where we spend the last five years. I completely agree that one of the true benefits of the Web 2.0 offerings is the evolutionary, iterative development model that the 'beta' generation brings with it. cyn.in did go through a similar iterative evolution, just that it involved real enterprise customers, who we continue to service today. We ruled out public betas as we believe the enterprise usually does not risk adapting beta software. cyn.in is our step to deliver our technology that has finally matured, to a global spectrum of audiences. I have pointed out some of the hurdles that we have faced with getting the enterprise adapt to web 2.0 here: http://talkback.zdnet.com/5208-12352-0.html?forumID=1&threadID=25715&messageID=482423 you might find to be an interesting read.
