If any organization wants to use our site and if they want any special customization then we will charge for customization development.<p>2. If any organization wants to deploy netvorx within their network rather than using http://www.netvorx.com then we will charge for maint & support.

This is probably going to be a common sentiment - But the signup is an issue - I think people are getting increasingly intolerant of the signup/confirm email hassle... Especially now that there are sites that do it so well.<p>This system required 1. entering your details, 2. getting a confirm email, 3. selecting a password and 4. logging in <i>again</i> after setting the password. That last step is bad enough, but even without that it's still too many.<p>The barrier to entry a lot lower (i.e. 1 step) if you considered supporting OpenID - as well as streamlining the existing process.<p>The style is fairly minimal, which is good, but this rendition is not really to my taste. To be honest, for me it was reminiscent of the "Microsoft ASP Verdana everywhere" style from the Office 2000 era.<p>Functionality wise - Well - Not sure. I wasn't sure what I was meant to do. I think the design doesn't really take you through the site. What do you see as the main use case? you should really explain these to the user and prompt them as well (e.g. You haven't entered a Profile yet - entering a Profile lets you XYZ).<p>I did have a click around. Not sure what environment you're running with, but it was a little slow (I'm overseas, so that might be a factor). Either way, for that kind of functionality an AJAX model would help a lot.<p>So... Yeah... Not really sure :) I think it needs a more fleshing out.
As I understand it your product is a central place for a team to communicate within. To me, I think of it as a personal social networking site. You can have profiles, blog, image gallery, status message, etc. Also get group discussion boards to collaborate and internal messaging.<p>I know you are not trying to be a social networking site, but in my opinion, my first thought is, "hmm maybe I can just use a private ning account for managing a small team".<p>I'm not saying this is right or wrong. What I am saying is that I think you really need to provide an optimal use case. It's one of the hardest things to do, but as an entrepreneur you need to explain your product and why it benefits the user in ONE SENTENCE. What problem do I have that this simply ..SOLVES. It is very hard, but this ensures that you can convey your product in the greatest light. Note that your customers are not hackers taking the time to give you constructive criticism, they will go to your home page, say ..."i don't get it" and then click away.<p>All the best.
Don't tell me what Netvorx is "for", tell me what Netvork "does" - what it does for me, my company, my friends, my network. What's the benefit of registering, using, promoting, etc.<p>I had to look at your blog to get any idea of what might be behind the sign-up. That's bad. In real life (ie: not when voyeuristically looking at someone else's start-up), I'd have not stayed on the home page for 5 seconds and I'd have back-buttoned, or apple-l'd (hey, my MBP is old) away.
"Purpose is to keep messages at central place and stay in touch with all user in group."<p>This is ridiculous. There are four grammar mistakes in that sentence alone. Why are you targeting English users if you are not native English speakers yourself? Build a service for speakers of your own language - at least they won't be put off by glaring editorial errors.

Yammer has announced my idea ( point 2 ) today... lets see whether it came from Hacker News Posting or it came from their brain :) We will see when Yammer releases that ...
