So please come support the show and stop by our booth to say hello. We’ll be in the Mac OS X Zone, at booth #228.

Billings Pro 1.5.5 Available Now

December 23, 2011 on 10:04 am | AJ

Billings Pro 1.5.5 is finally available on the Mac App Store.
It has some important fixes for our Cloud users – essentially better error handling.

If you are a cloud user, I urge you to update.
If you are a self serve user, it is a nice update, but not absolutely necessary.

You can get the update from this screen on the Mac App Store.

Until next time…

Cloud Rolling Downtime this weekend

December 2, 2011 on 4:05 pm | Ryan

Over the weekend, we’ll be moving accounts from a problematic server cluster to a new one. The move will take about 10 minutes per account.

The downtime will be intermittent beginning at 7:00 pm EST today, starting with our European customers and working our way to our Australian customers. Our plan is to move your account when you are sleeping :)

Customers on other clusters will not be affected.

You can continue to use Billings Pro and Billings Pro Touch during this time.

A number of customers have experienced problems during the month of November. Putting our money where our mouth is, we’re not going to charge any Marketcircle Cloud customer for the month of November.

Willie The Bee Man

December 1, 2011 on 1:26 pm | Ryan

Our latest two case studies both come from Willie The Bee Man, an expert in bee removal.

Willie uses both Daylite and Billings Pro to help manage his company’s busy schedule and invoicing processes.

Because of Daylite:

“The technicians can complete more bee removal jobs in a day because of the better organization and planning”

And with Billings Pro, Willie said:

“I receive payments faster, and address customer satisfaction issues quicker because I have more time to spend with clients”

Also, a big thanks to Tito at MacWorks for helping WIllie and his team get setup.

November 23, 2011 on 12:03 pm | Ryan

Marketcircle’s CEO, AJ, was kind enough to sit down for a chat with us and talk about their thoughts about the cloud, how their company got started, and what they’ve learned from running a cloud service. It was a very interesting talk, with a number of bits of info you might find surpassing about a company you already knew about!

A big thanks to Matthew Guay for taking the time to interview AJ for Web.AppStorm.
