We are happy to announce the public availability of our next product: Communications module for activeCollab. We released the module to our customers last month, as a part of our anniversary celebrations. The module is now in version 1.2 and available to all new customers.
What does Communications module do?
Communications Module is your Swiss army knife for team communication. You can use it as a formal announcement system or as an impromptu, informal communication channel. Use Communications module to get your team together. Use it for instant live chats, posting news updates and announcements, brainstorming with your team from around the world and microblog about your project.
We promise you and your team will love it!
So how was the response to the internal launch?
Crazy to say the least. We had 60 people buy it in less than an hour. As of now, we already have 113 customers and have received amazing feedback. You will find some of what our customers said on the product information page. The first version was awesome already, and v1.2 is super awesome!
What does version 1.2 add?
