There's a lot of information missing from your page that I'd want to know before even considering becoming a customer...

Where is/are your datacenter(s)?

What virtualization technologies are in use?

What type of hardware is in the physical hosts?

What operating systems are supported?

Minor complaint: clicking "Enterprise" or "Education" in the footer opens up a new mail message. That's not what I wanted nor what I expected.

And if you don't have a mailto: program, the "Enterprise" and "Education" links do nothing.

To add to your suspicions, the website layout is exactly the same as one of the new bootstrap v4.0 themes, and is just as vague about it's product. (http://themes.getbootstrap.com/products/marketing)

> ... the website layout is exactly the same as one of the new bootstrap v4.0 themes ...

Wow. Yeah, that's bad.

Why is this bad? Is there a licensing issue?

Otherwise, re-using a known layout will not play into my purchasing decisions.

It's a carbon copy!

Even the pricing $9, $45 and $119 are the same and the footer text is the same too.

"We’ve been working on RamGrid for the better part of the last couple of years and are super proud of what we’ve created. If you’d like to learn more, or are interested in a job, contact us anytime at business@ramgrid.com."

Is this some kind of MVP to test the water? Probably not, and just a silly joke...

I absolutely can't stand pages like this. I know it's completely minimal and not really a big deal but this keeps happening.

Show HNers - If I've hit the bottom of the page and I click on a "Features" link, or heck, any link in the footer I do not want to jump back up the page. I already scrolled past it. It doesn't give enough information. Either have a separate page that goes into more detail or don't link in the footer! I'm at the bottom of the page, you're safe to assume I already went past the part you're linking to!

> ... I do not want to jump back up the page.

I thought the exact same thing and almost mentioned it. That's very annoying to me.

Yeah, as someone who would be interested in the "Education" section, a contextless email is...not as interesting as I was hoping for.
