ContaX 1.5.5 Released

26/02/10 10:56 Filed: CrM | ContaX | Software News | Software Release

We released 1.5.5 of ContaX today. This is probably the last release prior to the MySQL Multi-User version which is due soon (I said this last time, but I was mistaken ).

1.5.5 has the following small but useful update:

Attached Vault documents from ooSooM are now shown against the appropriate contact within ContaX and can be opened in their original application by double clicking them.

You can see this in the annotated screenshot below:

This is a small but useful feature that gives added value to the document management features of the ContaX CRM solution.

MMM Now Free to Help Parents Protect their Children Online

MonitorMyMac our software that produces Timed Screenshots and Webcam Images with FTP Upload, is now available Free of Charge for Parents. The official Press Release can be seen here: http://bit.ly/c66d2I

ico_monitormymac

MonitorMyMac takes timed snapshots of the computer Screen(s) and / or takes snapshots from the connected Webcam. These images are stored locally, or remotely, and are also optionally uploaded to your FTP server or MobileMe Account meaning they can they be accessed from anywhere via Webpage Bookmarks.

You can view the Computer / Webcam from Your iPhone, Netbook, Computer or any Web Enabled Device.

The reason I have done this is simple. If just one child is saved from abuse using technology I have developed then that’s fantastic. Making it free means that any parent who’s child has an Apple Computer can obtain the software quickly, easily and without cost. Introducing this extra element of security and safety may make all the difference.

ContaX 1.5.2 Released

27/01/10 20:50 Filed: ContaX | Software News | CrM

We released 1.5.2 of ContaX today. This is probably the last release prior to the MySQL Multi-User version which is due soon.

1.5.2 has the following updates:

User Interface Improvements and Chart Expand Capability
Database Layer Re-written with added MySQL Compatibility
General Performance Increase
Preferences Window Updated

The information below is repeated from an earlier post and answers some of the questions ContaX, the MySQL Edition:

ico_contax

We’ve been working hard on the Multi-User version of ContaX CRM recently. ContaX CRM has been a great success, people generally seem to like the simple approach to CRM and the interaction with the other R10Office products such as ooSooM and R10BatchMail.

However, the current version of ContaX works against SQLite which is a Single User database making ContaX CRM more suitable for Individuals, or the Self Employed.

A Multi-User version of ContaX CRM has always been on the cards but development has been accelerated due to the many requests from potential customers who desperately need an easy to use CRM package for their small business and they don’t want to spend the earth. In my opinion Mac users particularly have hardly any decent choices in this category of software.

There are three main areas that I am being regularly asked about concerning the Multi-User version of ContaX. How the pricing will work, Can I upgrade and what database(s) will be supported.

ContaX Multi-User Pricing

The licensing will be very simply a multiple of the Single User price and a one off additional fee of £100. For example, let's assume you require a 10 user license for ContaX. ContaX retails at £44. Therefore your price would be:

10 x £44 + £100 = £540. This is a one off fee, there is no monthly charge.

Additional users would be £44. Licenses are 'Mix and Match' and will work on either Mac OSX or Microsoft Windows.

The combination of attractive pricing, simple licensing and easy to use but powerful CRM functionality means that when it comes to CRM solutions for the Small Business, there is no need to look anywhere else.

ContaX Upgrade to Multi-User

To upgrade from the Single User version of ContaX requires only that you purchase the Multi-User License. The program is the same whether you are Single or Multi-User.

ContaX Multi-User Databases

The initial plan was to make the first supported Multi-User database REAL Server from REAL Software. REAL Server is an incredibly easy to use, inexpensive and powerful database. Listening to our customers however has made us change our minds and put our development efforts towards making the first supported Multi-User database MySQL.

MySQL is incredibly popular, it has a lot of loyal supporters, a lot of expertise is available and best of all it is available free of charge. We expect MySQL support to be available within the next couple of weeks.

Additional database support, including REAL Server, will follow in due course. We are developing a powerful object oriented structure that will help us support multiple databases whilst refusing to compromise on speed or features. See my separate blog post for details.

Another Note from a Customer

27/01/10 20:46 Filed: Customer Feedback | Arten Science

Received from a Customer today

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL

' ... I purchased a Mac copy of R10Office yesterday for my own use. I am a professor and the University at which I teach resides in the sad environment of the hard copy world. I have been trying diligently to demonstrate that technology can be user-friendly, cost-effective, and far more efficient than current practices. After just one day with your product, I am convinced that it may be the tool that could change the system. In order to demonstrate the possibilities, I would like to purchase a second copy of the software for use on my UK University computer. My goal is to set up and use the program, then share the results with others who could either purchase the systems interdepartmentally or personally'
