Great software!
It does what I need, and it is easy to use. The devs have managed to make lots of features accessible from a simple to use interface. One thing I look at with FOSS is how long the project has been active. Epesi has been actively developed for a long time. The devs are in it for the long haul.
Epesi is rock solid, and so are the people behind it!
