Jacknife v1.3.2

[Bozkid]

Enterprise Software for FileMaker Pro 10

Bozrah, CT - November 27, 2009 - Jacknife™ v1.3.2 is versatile enterprise software for businesses and organizations. It includes several specific types of programs and you may choose which to use simply by selecting a program type in settings.

Jacknife Studio is ideal for studios of all kinds, including dance, gymnastics, and karate studios. It includes classes, registrations, rosters, attendance taking, products and purchases.

Jacknife Medical is perfect for doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals. It includes billable treatments and CMS-1500 capabilities, such as automatic entry of primary insurance data, direct printing to "red" OCR forms, plain-paper printing of black and white forms, e.g., for insurance companies, and billing-provider support for electronic claim submissions. RxAssist support is also provided.

Additionally, there is Jacknife Salon, which includes billable services; Jacknife Education, which has classes and rosters; Jacknife Business, with editable time slips and projects that can span multiple days; and Jacknife Law, with time slips and billable services. The "General" edition (the default type) includes ALL of the above capabilities.

Key features common to each program include:

* Contacts, merge letters, reminders, passwords, barcode tags, and audit tracking

* Scheduling, with date and time blocks, presets, conflict checks, and availability searches

* Network messages and alerts, and regulatory security (including HIPAA)

* FREE updates

* Plus, much more!

Jacknife requires a screen resolution of at least 1280 x 1024 dpi. No plug-ins are needed.

In trial mode, the program is single-user with just one schedule. You will not be able to make entries more than three weeks into the future, and you will not be able to import data. Nevertheless, the program is otherwise fully functional so you can test it with "real world" data.

This is not what I understand as shareware. You are misusing the word simply to give yourself publicity.

Normanicus where exactly does the thing offered here differ from what Wikipedia describes as:

Shareware is usually offered as a trial version with certain features only available after the license is purchased, or as a full version, but for a trial period. Once the trial period has passed the program may stop running until a license is purchased. Shareware is often offered without support, updates, or help menus, which only become available with the purchase of a license. The words "free trial" or "trial version" are indicative of shareware.

Aren't you confusing it with "Open source"???

This says that:

EITHER

certain features are only available after the license is purchased

OR

as a full version, but for a trial period.

Does your offer satisfy either of these conditions?

[Søren Dyhr]

Yea! isn't it exactly the case here?

With my limited knowledge to english does it fit, but a lawyer might be able to spot a crack or two in the terms.. :qwery:

It does exactly the former. I think the posting is clear. It says, and I quote, "The download is single-user with just one schedule. It is also shareware. You may use it freely and it will not expire. However, you will not be able to make entries more than three (3) weeks into the future, nor will you be able to import data. These and other limitations are removed when you register the program."

Apparently, you are thinking of open source, which Jacknife is not. Otherwise, I can't see the reason for the confusion. Plus, the price is just $29, which is extremely low. Are you looking for something of high quality that is both open source and free?

Your marketing approach fits the description of Shareware, see Here

The problems I have with your ads, do not involve pricing, or your method of distribution. It involves the use of FM Forum (and every other FileMaker List to that I belong to) to JUST spam your ads.

I can not remember a time where anyone from your company has posted a how-to reply, to a member's question. I do see replies, but the only thing you post is a suggestion for them to look, (purchase) one of your products.

Couple that with the fact, that you seem to feel it necessary to post an upgrade announcement () every month, which seems nothing more than another opportunity to Spam the lists.

Why not buy an ad from the FM Forums with a link to your site, which would then be present on the different levels of the Forum, and then you can forget about the constant spamming of your product, at least on this list?

Thanks for your reply. We wanted to release Jacknife as shareware while significantly lowering the price in order to "give back" to the community. I should point out that there was a bit hesitation in doing this. But we went ahead anyway. Your comments and those of normanicus now show that our initial reluctance may have been justified. Also, while we don't believe in spam, your comments seem to indicate that you think we do.

Consequently, to avoid any possibility of being accused of posting spam, we will no longer add announcements to this forum.

I hope this meets with your approval.
