All software has bugs, however we have included a ‘Bug Reporter’ option right on your Task Bar. Should an error occur, a pop-up appears with all important information for our programmers (webpage, browser version, line number, error number and/or message).

Just enter the information in the bottom of the form and tell us what you were doing when the error occurred, then press ‘send’.

This email will go directly to our support department.

Note: You must have email set up in your PC. Web-based email client will not work with this, so you’ll have to cut (PC ctrl-c/Mac cmnd-c) and paste (PC ctrl-v/Mac cmnd-v).

Should you have an idea or a suggestion, feel free to use the ‘Bug Reporter’ for that also.

The idea of bringing WIMP software to market began in the late ’90s. With the explosion of the internet and browser technology, we felt any Content Management System should be done using a browser.

1) No software to load. Works with Mac, PC, Linux, iPad, etc.
2) No equipment to manage. Lower electricity costs.
3) Use open source community software to reduce costs and increase availability of labor (programmers, designers, etc.)
