Hi Dan007,

My name is Alex from Mindsystems. I was pointed toward OutlinerSoftware.com by some members that have also been communicating with us about the newly released Amode.

I am not going to get into the game of shameless self-promotion :-) or offer subjective opinions. Of course we think it is great, but as any new product we are building and working hard to improve it (our responsiveness helps that process allot).

It is important that people realize Amode is much more than it appears to be at first glance. There are actually 4 separate apps merged into one here, and over 12 months of stability testing on that integration. We’ve done stress testing on files as large as 55Gig!! Not that anyone should EVER build a single file that big!!!

As a matter of interest, the feedback so far is extremely positive in terms of usability and overall appeal… but the message is clear, people miss the depth of functionality up front, and therefore we as a company run the risk of people dismissing the product for something it is not.

So for us, this means one thing ? we need to quickly improve the customer message and enhance accessibility.

We think we can handle this by producing a pack of tutorial videos taking people through usage, but also building some real world usage scenarios to see how Amode could apply to them.

So we are going to that ASAP and let people know when we do.

We are not trying to re-invent the wheel with this project. We have been in the info management arena for 16+ years, all we are doing here is answering a strong call to combine common tools, and we have done it using our expertise on what works for most people.

Thanks everyone!

Alex
