@MrBuddyCasino - I tried incorporating the design on the site we launched 5 seconds ago. lmk what you think (alex @ vectorized.io ) is my email in case you feel inclined :D thank you tho.
Without scrolling, all the text thats displayed is this:
"Redpanda
A Kafka® API compatible streaming platform for mission-critical workloads.
Try Redpanda today"
It tells me what it is, which is good. It does not tell me why it is better, for that I have to scroll. Kafka is already suited for mission-critical workloads, so that is not a unique value proposition. Maybe:
"Redpanda - 100% Kafka API compatible, but without the headaches. Forget Zookeeper, forget rebalancing issues. Instead, enjoy reliable message delivery, 10x faster speed and ultra-low latencies due to our thread-per-core architecture."
Something like that, plus a visible "call to action" button, maybe "try it out" or "download".
Could also think about a pretty graph comparing latencies or smth. People love pretty graphs.
