What's the beta program?The TopoFusion Beta program is pretty simple. When we have a relatively stable version of the software, we make it available to our users. It's not considered a full release, but it has passed certain tests of functionality.
Users get to check out new features and we get testing, feedback and assurance that things are working. Win-win. Sometimes we're not the best at determining how a new feature should work, or be implemented, so it's nice to have some other users to bounce ideas around with. Our "power users" have often shaped the program in the past.
How do I join?Just send an email to
beta@topofusion.com. We'll add you to our beta mailing list. All of the discussion happens on this board -- the mailing list is only used to notify beta testers that a new version is available. (It's an extremely low traffic list, that only TopoFusion developers post to).
Do I need to be a registered (paid) user?Unfortunately, yes. We only release one version of the betas and it requires a name and code. We do this mainly because our most dedicated users have purchased the program and don't want to see the demo tiles.
If there are beta features you'd like to try out and leave feedback on, we
can produce a demo version of the beta. Just send us an email and let us know what you're interested in.
Thanks!
Team TopoFusion
