Portable and standard edition merged

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

It had to happen of course. PeerAware now simply detects if a user has admin priveleges. If he does then the normal edition will be installed. Otherwise PeerAware will run in portable mode.

PeerAware is shared knowledge management software for use in the enterprise. Teams use it for group chat, for sharing documents and for the shared whiteboard.

1.05 is out! And now it is fast!

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Today I released PeerAware 1.05. I just found that now is about time. I have been making tons of improvements, and today I found a huge bug! For a long time I have been getting reports from potential customers that PeerAware is slow. I never quite understood why they would think so, but now I know. If browsing shared folders with Asian letters it was not only slow. It just did not work, and would stay idle for ages! How I managed to let that bug slip past me I don’t know. All fixed and much much faster now of course.

As usual a lot of work has gone into improving the whiteboard. A great new functionalty is the full screen support. Just press F11 and you get much more screen real-estate for drawing.

Apart from that a lot of work is going into the web site. It is time to focus more on helping people use PeerAware efficiently, and part of that means better introductions to the program. A new video will be online soon to highlight the most important functionality, and a bunch of new web-pages are scheduled as well.

Enjoy the new release, and as usual you can download it here.
