- Arabic Typing Tutor 3.3, Type It Now! — There are many typing tutors/keyboard trainers in the world, though most of them address either English or European keyboards, leaving aside many popular languages and keyboard layouts. Many of those keyboard layouts «forgotten by major software developers» have a very different logic and relationship to language, so English/European typing patterns can do nothing for the fast and correct typing in other languages. Fortunately…
- Antamedia Internet Caffe 5.6, Customers Would Be Happy! — Antamedia Internet Caffe suite has amazed me. Really. For a system administrator with an average experience and common sense, there are obvious minimal requirements for the Internet café management. As well, it’s obvious that creating software that would meet at least those minimal requirements is a rather hard job. Even harder is to create something «more than the minimum», capable of handling non-obvious cases, and…
- KDT Soft. Recover Product Key 1.1.2, Gimme The Key! — The «product key» concept has become usual for most of us. Typically, when you take a copy of some software, you don’t own it, you just use it. What you own is a «product key» — just several letters and numbers of the «personal key» generated for you by the vendor. It’s an industry standard, and it’s almost fine, except of several questionable situations. What…
- OTK Custom dbinstaller 2, Database Comes Along — Have you ever installed an application that required a database, but had no database in the setup file? What a hassle it was to find the database software, install it on the computer and finally configure it the way that it would actually work with that software! When the preparation was finally over, no strength or desire to continue with the software had remained in the body. And all that had happened just because the…
- Beyond Remote Support, Focus on Problem, Not on Getting to It — Solving a tricky problem on a remote box is often not as hard as getting to that problem. Helping a newbie to obtain, install and run a remote assistance program sometimes may be harder than resolving the original problem. A remote assistance application has got to be something really easy, not harder than making just a few mouse clicks. This idea was picked up by Data Apples Corp., and they came up with…
- Tech-Pro World Clock 2 — Today, we live in the world of global connections. This definition equally applies to businesses that can be separated by thousands of miles and personal contacts, where friends can be made all around the world — from Hawaii to Sydney, from Tokyo to Moscow, from Iceland to Los Angeles. Whichever the case may be, we should always «mind the gap» and remember that our friends and partners are located…
- Instant Housecall, Support 'em All! — If your work is about providing support to users of some computer system (for example, you sell the system or sell consulting services, etc.), you can think of it as of almost unsolvable problem. Typical users have an extremely wide range of qualifications and experience, so your recommendations (provided through email, phone or some messaging service) can be easily misunderstood, ignored, forgotten and…
- Registry Trash Keys Finder — There always comes a day when you feel that urgent need to bring your operating system to order — uninstall the unnecessary applications, defragment drives, purge temporary files, clean up the desktop, sort files by folders and, we suggest, also wipe out the «trash» entries clogging up your system’s registry. Not only do these actions improve your system’s performance, but they help insure a smoothly-running…
- Customer Backup – a solid foundation for establishing great relationships with your clients — Any business, be it a one-man company or a large enterprise, depends on clients. Constant communication with your customers, including newsletters, announcements, special offers and follow-ups, helps increase sales and improve customer loyalty, which is extremely important today, when competition and customer mobility is high. If your customer base is growing and you start experiencing problems with keeping in touch with all of them…
