In addition as mentioned in the recent

Product Update Frequency

I have been asked why I often go through a patch of frequent updates to a product, for example ContaxCRM has had four updates in the last week or so.

The reason is quite simple. From a customers perspective they can choose when to update based upon the features that have been added, they are not forced to update every time I upload a new version. For those customers however who are waiting for a particular feature they can have it immediately with no waiting around for a particular ‘scheduled update’.

From my point of view it allows me to do several weeks or months on a product and see the results of my work ‘out in the wild’ where customers and prospects can give me immediate feedback.

Another reason is, because I can. I think the fast development, immediate distribution model is where we need to be nowadays to stay relevant and current and to give our customers value for money. This is where a small company like mine can add value over the larger companies, our ship can be turned on a dime, their ship has a lot more inertia and finds it difficult to turn quickly to react to changing market and customer needs.

ContaX 1.5.5 Released

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 Happy ).

ico_contax

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:

contaxopendocs

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

Product News ooSooM Pro Coming Soon

Product News: ooSooM Pro. Task Management and Secure Digital Filing.

Thanks to our customers ooSooM has been very successful. In only a few short months ooSooM has been registered well over 2000 times. It's great to know that so many people are using and enjoying the product.

ooSooM is available Free of Charge and we make revenue from the Encryption / Decryption security features that are enabled by purchasing either an R10Cipher or ooSooM Pro license. For those that don't want or need these features ooSooM is entirely free, with no strings attached.

As a registered user you may receive an email from us every few weeks telling you about the latest offers from Arten Science, but you can unsubscribe to that very easily, and you won't hear from us again.

I think any customer of ooSooM who has been using it since version 1.0 will see that the product is now far better and more sophisticated than those early versions, your feedback has been very positive.

Products have to evolve and change to improve and ooSooM is reaching the point where the features that we would like to put in the product and the features we are being asked for by our customers, as well as our commitment to the R10Office suite mean that the next version of ooSooM is no longer viable to be released as a free product. Developers also need to eat Happy The current free version however will remain supported for at least the next 12 months.

The next version of ooSooM will be called ooSooM Pro. Anybody with an existing ooSooM Pro license can use this license with the new product. In addition anybody with an R10Cipher license can apply for an ooSooM Pro license free of charge.

The cost of an ooSooM Pro license will increase when the new product is released, so if you are toying with the idea of upgrading to an ooSooM Pro license for ooSooM, you should do it soon while the price is still very low.

ooSooM Pro will offer a more complete, more reliable and better looking experience that the current version of ooSooM. Some of the features that we have either already completed or we have in progress or planned are:

Separate Journal Function
Multiple locations for Digital Filing
Encryption for the filed Documents
Recents Option
Tags and Tag Search
Tab Delimited and XLS Export
Attachment Names included in Quick Search
Post to Twitter
Text Processing Capabilities
Basic Project Management Capabilities


ooSooM Pro is going to be an exciting product for us, able to easily compete with our competitors. ooSooM Pro will also remain Cross Platform for Macintosh and Windows. Linux is also being considered, let us know if this is of interest to you.

If you have any comments or questions, please use the new forum: http://getsatisfaction.com/artenscience

ooSooM Version 2.2.0 Released

ooSooM is a Todo Management and Secure Digital Filing System for Macintosh OSX and Microsoft Windows. It integrates directly with other Arten Science products as part of the R10Office suite.

ooSooM is still available free of charge.


ooSooM 2.2.0
ico_ooSooM

Updates in Version 2.2.0

The Todo and Vault items can now be sorted by dragging and dropping the individual rows in the list. Each context has it's own sort order, so for example an item can be bottom of the list within the Urgency heading, middle of the list within the Type heading and top of the list within it's own heading category.

This functionality replaces the Priority dropdown menu from previous versions.

ooSooM 2.0.0 Available

ooSooM is a Todo Management and Secure Digital Filing System for Macintosh OSX and Microsoft Windows.


ooSooM 2.0.0
ico_ooSooM

Updates in Version 2.0.0

Version 2.0.0 is a significant upgrade for ooSooM. Nothing has been added to Version 2.0.0 that has not been suggested by several of our existing customers.

Vault Attachments
The most significant change in Version 2.0.0 is the ability to
attach multiple documents, for example pdf files, jpg pictures, word documents etc. to a single Vault Item.

There are many uses for this functionality. For example you can create an entry in the Vault titled ‘Website Marketing’. You can then enter text concerning website marketing and then drag and drop supporting documents and pictures that will then be moved and stored and accessed from within ooSooM.

To access this new functionality it is necessary to first go to the Preferences window (which for ease of use can now be accessed from the Toolbar as well as the Menu, another version 2.0.0 change), go to the Configuration tab and use the ‘Choose’ button to select the location for your Attachments. Once this is done you should restart ooSooM and then you can use the Attachment functionality.

Highlight List Items
If you wish an entry in your Item or vault list to stand out you can now choose to Bold, Italic or Underline the entry.

NanooSooM
NanooSooM is now included as standard in the Mac OSX download. More information on NanooSooM here:

http://www.artenscience.co.uk/artenscience/Blog/files/nan1.html

Item Properties
Item properties are now accessed from the separate Properties window.

You can see some screenshots from Version 2.0.0 below:

ooSooM Updated to 1.2.5: Pro Serial Available

ooSooM is a Todo Management and Secure Digital Filing System for Macintosh OSX and Microsoft Windows.


ooSooM 1.2.5
ico_ooSooM


Prior to Version 1.2.5 if you wished to take advantage of the Encryption and Decryption features of ooSooM you would need to input your R10Cipher serial number, if you had one. For those of you who don’t have one and have no intention of purchasing R10Cipher on it’s own merits, then it was perceived as an expensive way to add those useful Encryption / Decryption facilities to ooSooM.

So, catering to the many requests I have received, as of Version 1.2.5 of ooSooM you can choose to purchase an
ooSooM Pro License which is available very inexpensively and once input into the Encryption tab of the ooSooM Preferences window will give you full Encryption / Decryption capabilities.

Here’s the link to the ooSooM About Page, from which the ooSooM Pro License can be purchased. Payment can be taken in GBP, USD or EUR.

For relationships such as Trade Association, BNI Group and HOG Chapter you would obviously apply the organisation name to the description, for example: Sherwood HOG, BNI Phoenix etc.

The Mac OSX
New Connections window is shown below:

ss_contax35

Relationships are set as either Outgoing or Incoming by ContaX. From the ContaX main screen assume I have selected contact A. I select the Connections tab and press the ‘New Connection’ button. I then choose contact B and a connection type of ‘Subsidiary’. In this example the connection is set so that contact B is a subsidiary of contact A. contact A has an Outgoing relationship and contact B has an Incoming relationship. The relationship can be viewed from the perspective of either contact A or contact B and it will be shown as Outgoing or Incoming appropriately.

This new facility is ideal for exploring the relationships between your contacts, recording them, evaluating them and viewing them with a view to working your contacts whether for the purposes of generating new business, marketing to existing customers or just keeping your data up to date, complete and as accurate as possible.

New Product Release: ooSooM

Today I released my latest product: ooSooM.

ooSooM is a Todo Management and Secure Digital Filing System for Macintosh OSX and Microsoft Windows.

The idea behind ooSooM is simple. To get on with the job in hand you need to get thoughts of what needs doing and what needs remembering out of your head and safely and securely logged, in a way that means you can find them later when needed. Bits of paper are so yesterday
smiley_smile

ooSooM does not attempt to force a predetermined 'methodology' on you, rather it's very free format and open allowing you to use it however you like, but with enough structure to ensure that once logged, information can retrieved easily and readily.

ooSooM is
Windows 7 and OSX Snow Leopard compatible.

ooSooM is supplied FREE OF CHARGE for PERSONAL USE.

One of the unique features of ooSooM is that if you have an
R10Cipher license then Todo or Vault items within ooSooM can be Encrypted / Decrypted on an individual basis. This allows you to use ooSooM to store confidential information such as Passwords, Serial Numbers, Credit Card Numbers, Bank Details Etc.

Another unique feature of ooSooM is that it integrates directly with
ContaX, our CRM package. This means that Todo items and Vault items can be linked to particular Customers, Suppliers or Contacts. This link can be seen both from within ooSooM and within ContaX.

You can see some pictures of ooSooM below, and you can view the Getting Started Guide
here.

R10BatchMail Update - Personalised Bulk Email

Version 1.7.1 of R10BatchMail supports the injection of the recipients name into the message body. For this to work you need to type **NAME** at the location within the message body that you wish the name to be displayed. When the mail is sent the **NAME** is replaced with the recipients name. If the recipients full name is listed in the recipients column of R10BatchMail, then only the First Name is used.

For Example: Steve Cholerton becomes Steve, and Steve remains as Steve.

This function only works for messages that are entered into the message box of R10BatchMail, for aesthetic and layout reasons this does not work when you are Direct Linking to an HTML file.

Bulk Email Sending Now for Windows

The success of R10BatchMail on the Mac made me decide that it was worthwhile to produce the Windows Version.

The Windows version runs natively on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.

The feature set is identical to the Macintosh OSX version, apart from the ability to read from the Apple Address Book ... as there isn’t an Apple Address Book on Windows I guess that is no surprise Happy

You can download a free copy from the website:
http://www.r10batchmail.com

There are only a couple of restrictions in the free version, more details on the website, but at only £25 for the Standard Edition - you know you want to Happy

As always, feedback is welcomed.
