RSSWe just released our 1.7 for single users which comes with a free named license and unlimited read only access. It’s only been one day and already we’re getting a huge response. This option is a great way to get started with no hassles. Just download Contour, install and your off and running.
This release is very exciting for us, most notably for the subtle and indirect changes.
We have a new logo, which I think is a huge improvement. Something about the circle captures our belief, that the whole team is in it together. Can you feel the love? Also, and this isn’t so small, we have a new web site. The site itself is worth perusing, there’s actually a great paper called “Requirements Redefined” that is based on the premise that Requirements Management is valuable but a pain in the @*s#!, I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on it.
Contour itself has a much improved installation, one button….well almost. There’s a “what’s new” that tracks events in the system and then displays them when you log in, so you can see who did what and when. We also did some color tweaking and UI cleanup.
It’s good to get a release out the door but I’m always looking towards the next release. We have so many cool ideas bouncing around, it’s hard to know what to tackle first. We’ve set up a “backstage” site where the public, as well as current customers, can post support questions, comments or feature requests. We’ll also be posting our ideas looking for feedback. I hope you’ll join us there, the more the merrier.
