It’s been over a month since we released the beta and we want to thank all of you for the feedback and support!

We’re almost ready for a v1 release. There are just a few more things to iron out.

We fixed a bunch of bugs and UI issues during this time:

  • Installer UI and workflow was corrected. In addition, read/write permission is auto-detected prior to installation and you will be notified if you failed to grant ASPNET/Network Services the proper permissions.
  • Application Errors section now reports every possible system error.
  • The Task ID (along with Task Title) is now displayed for related tasks in the Milestone Overview page and in the Discussion posts.
  • Clicking the File name will allow you to download the file (before you had to click the file icon).
  • An error message will appear if you select a Task Status of Duplicate and leave the Task ID field blank.
  • In the discussions, Published discussions and milestones are clearly labeled with a Published Tag.
  • In the discussions, Closed milestones are clearly labeled with a Closed Tag.
  • Lock/Unlock fixed for Client Contacts and Users (A client contact or user is locked out of the system for 1 hours after 5 unsuccessful login attempts.)
  • Various other GUI improvements here and there.
  • Fixed a bunch of spelling mistakes.

Please note this important workflow change:

Project Managers will not be able to modify the project team members and clients. Only the administrator can add/remove team members and clients for projects.

Our reasoning has always been that users should only see what they need to see. And since a Project Manager is just merely a user who has been given special privileges for a specific project, they should not have the ability to see all users or clients.

We have a few more things left to do:

  • Fix the grammar and spelling for error and warning messages.
  • Correct the UI in a few more places.
  • Hook up credit card transaction and payment system.
  • Finalize the CRM Portal.
  • Complete the documentation.

Most of this should be done very soon. Thanks again for all your support! We’re almost there!
