I'm certainly no expert, but I've found features lists to be rather meaningless for a couple of reasons: 1) rarely does one need/use all the features to meet their business goals 2) there is no consistent definition of a particular feature 3) the existence of a feature doesn't say anything about the quality/usability of said feature I guess I'm saying that benchmarking software products based on the writing on the package is just usually a waste of time and only reflects the merits of the vendor's marketing department.
