Email Update: improved deliverability, tracking & more
By Daniel Barnett - WORKetc | 29-01-2011
Late last week we successfully rolled out a fundamental change to the e-mail system that powers WORK[etc]. This is big news as it allows us to not only improve end-recipient deliverability, but also include a bunch of cool tracking features. For example you can now see if an invoice was received by a client and […]
New Pricing Announced… and explained in detail
By Daniel Barnett - WORKetc | 23-01-2011
I’ve made a number of references in this blog, on the community forums and privately to many about a planned price increase for WORK[etc]. Universally it has been met with encouragement which surprises; I’d been bracing for a whole lot of resistance, but that just isn’t coming through. To be absolutely clear, this will not […]
The WORKetc Liquid Road Map
By Daniel Barnett - WORKetc | 11-01-2011
Late last year I tentatively started announcing roadmaps for WORK[etc]. I say tentatively for a few reasons: We keep a mostly fluid development plan as WORK[etc] is wide and deep; a full range of business management tools each covering wide spectrum of functionality.

New Projects… bigger than we thought.
By Daniel Barnett - WORKetc | 14-09-2010
I know a lot of people are hanging out to test the new project tool and we are getting closer. The reality is that it is a far greater project (!) than we thought. Projects are a massive part of WORK[etc] and as such provide core information through to contacts, billing, timesheets, reports and just […]
New Feature: Enable logins for all customers.
By Daniel Barnett - WORKetc | 09-08-2010
Last week had to solve a long standing UX problem in WORK[etc] regarding access for your customers, to your customer portal. If you’ve enabled customer access for your WORK[etc] account then you already know that each account needs to be configured manually, which is pretty lame from a usability perspective. And having to keep saying […]
