Yes, it does crash alot, but since it's got continuous autosave, I never lost any work. You just re-launch, send the report, and pick up where you left off. There is a semi-private beta available (verion 1.1) which, according to the developers, addresses the crashing issue, but I was able to get my site going using 1.0.4,

I believe I made a good choice with Sandvox; I was able to convert my old hand-coded website into a modern professional-looking site by myself, in days instead of weeks. I looked at RapidWeaver and Freeway, but both of them seemed like they were going to take me longer to get a professional-looking site. iWeb would be good for high-school kids, personal family photograph albums and blogs, but that's about it. Sandvox can actually be used for a serious business, but this is pushing the envelope, so you'll need the "pro" ($79) version.

Like RapidWeaver and iWeb, your Sandvox site is based on a pre-made "design". There are about 25 to choose from, and with a little hacking I was able to modify the color of one of them. Because it is based on pre-made designs, you are not free to put anything where you want it. But, in exchange for this limitation, you get some really nice artwork. If, like me, you're not a graphic designer, look at the designs in Sandvox. The constraints may actually have been beneficial, because it kept my wild imagination under control. My old hand-coded site was kind of wild and wooly. But Sandvox forced me to keep things elegant and coherent.

I gave Support / Documentation an "excellent" rating because of the support. Documentation is on a wiki, not too well-organized.

I decided to not rate Quality / Stability, since the crashes are not an issue for me, and maybe the beta will fix the crashing.

finally, and this is important: It's a modern Cocoa app with a fairly intuitive interface, so it has potential to get alot better. There are many features which could be added, and I expect will be. The developers seem to be actively and enthusiasitcally working on it.
