Is this OK? - YES IT IS

This Article[^] shows a Product of the company where the user is working. It has 2 free plans, but for me it really smells like too much self promotion for me. User "Priyanka Sharma - Solutions Architecture Lead /// codeproject.com/Members/User-16112872" created 4 days prior to publication @sean-ewington I really doubt she is a sponsor. I ask just to be sure. Is this OK? Or do you want to have a chat with her? EDIT 2: WE WERE WRONG, THEY ARE SPONSORS
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

For me not really spam as there are free plans, but site driving / self promotion... hell yeah!

Using an article to promote a "freemium" product is definitely spam. If you're charging for it, you can afford to pay Chris to advertise it! :)

Yes, yes it's OK. They are a paid sponsor. I forgot to put the sponsor icon on the author again. I'd like to say, "this was the lesson I needed, I'll never forget again," but just in case that isn't true, you can always check this text at the top of the article: "This article is a sponsored article. Articles such as these are intended to provide you with information on products and services that we consider useful and of value to developers"
Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject
