Just a few minutes ago, we decided to extend the 25% off sale to January 15. We were a little late getting Studio Manager 10 out the door, releasing it on December 22nd. A little too close to Christmas for a lot of people. When we sent out notifications, we got a lot of gone for the holidays notices. Under the circumstances, we are really happy with the response to our sale.

And, we are pretty sure more of you want to upgrade to Studio Manager 10 but need a little extra time to evaluate the demo which didn’t come out until December 23. Some of you may want to deduct this expense in 2010 rather than the less than stellar 2009. Whatever the reason, contact us by phone 415 789-5219 or email Janet to discuss your questions or place an order.

The Studio Manager 10 Demo is up and available on the Demo tab above at the far right. If you have any problems, questions at all, please let me know. You will find good help in the ReadMe document that is included in the demo folder that you download and unzip. Things like what’s the user name and password are included there.

It will take some time to update all the screenshots here on our site and also in the Demo Manual and Getting Started Manuals. Probably mid-January. Sorry, but we can’t start them until the product is done and these are serious and hopefully very good manuals. We trust that the Studio Manager 9.2 versions of the manuals will tide you over. And, if you find something confusing, don’t hesitate to call or email me personally.

One more thing, if you put Studio Manager or SM in the subject line, it turns red for me in Apple Mail and makes it easier for me to see your request.

We’ve got the latest version of the product ready to go in demo format now. Loaded up with fresh data. Just fill out a few quick fields so we can track interest and grab the new Studio Manager 9.2 demo!

We have the demo up which will let you see Studio Manager 9.1 plus it will let you run under FileMaker Pro 10. We did have to revise the first version of the demo since it first went up on Monday. An improvement we made had an unexpected consequence of losing your place in contacts. That bug has been squashed!

We recommend that when you download the demo, you get the short Getting Started and Demo manual.pdfs too. But, don’t forget to also click over to our new online SM9 Demo: Getting Started lessons. We think they are a bit more fun with step-by-step illustrations – 1 screenshot per step.

Drum roll please. It has been a long haul to get Studio Manager 8 out the door. This will be at least a two part process. First out the door is the Studio Manager 8 Demo and the Studio Manager 8 Demo Manual.

You are gonna love this new release. For quite some time now, we’ve been promising an overhaul of our Studio Manager interface. We had over 300 layouts and no simple way to change styles on multiple layouts at once.

We were waiting for FileMaker to release OS X transparency tools and what not but got tired of waiting and just said enough is enough! So, we grabbed FileMaker 8.5’s new tab control features and ran with them.

Now we have these amazing new native tabs in Studio Manager 8. You’ll see more tabs but in return you’ll see less on the screen, more white space, a simpler UI and even professionally designed icons! One of our clients helped us out.

We recommend that you hustle yourself over to the downloads page pronto and check this stuff out. If you don’t have time or inclination to download and try the demo, check out all new screenshots in the left column.
