Yes, that's right, the much anticipated release of EMM v1.0.1.0 for AspDotNetStoreFront has occurred. I've finally gotten my act in gear and finished up all the features that people have been asking for.
Want to try out EMM without having to buy it first? You've got it! You can now download a copy of the current version of EMM. We've enabled a key system that allows anyone to download and try the product in their environment and the only thing that they won't be able to do is send emails to the non-test target audiences.
Looking for WYSIWYG editing of HTML version of a campaign? Done! This is one we previewed in an earlier posting but it is certainly worth crowing about here as well! We've integrated ASPDNSF's WYSIWYG editor into our tool to make it easier for non-coders to make good looking newsletters and emails. Say you don't like that editor and have it turned off in AppConfig variables? No problem, we honor that flag!
Do you want simple, one-click newsletter sign ups? We've listened to you and integrated what we think is the best system for doing this. No longer will you need to require that potential newsletter subscribers create an entire profile in ASPDNSF in order to send them emails. We provide you with the tools to no only define Double and Single Opt In email collection, but you can also force the potential subscriber to provide their first and last names on the jump if you'd prefer! Even better, you can keep these individuals separate from your normal customers by posting them into EMM External Customer database. Say you want to insert them into your standard ASPDNSF customer database? No problem as we can handle that as well!
Note: The proposed defaults discussed in this earlier post have been modified. We are still defaulting to Double Opt-In email collection (the smart way to do things) but the default behavior of data collection is to only require email addresses rather than forcing first and last name as indicated previously. That post also indicated that we would be defaulting the insertion of newly subscribed users to the ASPDNSF Customer table. After much consideration, we've decided that our customers might need access to adding customers to both customer tables within the same website so we've placed the controlling logic in the forms that subscribers will use to sign up from.
Of course, you still get all of this for a mere $100! If you aren't currently using this application with your ASPDNSF storefront, you owe it to yourself to download the evaluation version to give it a shot!
