Roger Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Oh please, please, please..... I got tied up in some other work and wasn't able to download the RC. Oh please, please, please Mr. Matt.... throw me a bone..... I've been a good boy, a loyal supporter since 2005. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylove4life Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 He won't I asked... but I'm sure v4 will be out of beta soon anyway now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 Not asking for the RC.... begging for a quick release of V4.... Before you all jump in with the "He'll release it when it's ready" stuff. yes... I know that... just being humorous here a tad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RikeMedia Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Is there actually a projected or fixed date or is it a 'when its done its done' situation? Just curious as the RC release thread didn't specify anything regarding a gold release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scurrell Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Is there actually a projected or fixed date Hopefully not. or is it a 'when its done its done' situation? Hopefully yes. Nothing worse than software that's rushed just to meet a deadline, rather than being actually ready for release.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlinpa1969 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Im waiting for a few of the mods like CAMM and true login share to get up to speed with 4.0 before I even care if it comes out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACscr Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 He won't I asked... but I'm sure v4 will be out of beta soon anyway now... There was no public beta. An RC is not a beta, but a Release Candidate. Thus we should be extremely close to a stable version unless the RC's were riddled with bugs, which they shouldnt be since they were RC's.

freedombi Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I wouldn't say riddled, but judging by forum posts, there have been a few bugs. Of course, if this were a different software package, 4.0 would have been released a month ago, and 4.0.6 would be getting released tomorrow. And with that thought, I find it easy to be patient.

mm1250 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Why are you so in a rush for v4?? Would you rather Matt release a buggy product that causes all types of issues? Let's get serious here. This is a billing software and billing software is the front line of the business which needs to be handled and developed almost flawlessly. I rather wait until Matt is 110% certain the product is ready. I don't need to be installing it than finding out it over-bills or this and that screws customers accounts. If you want products that are released without vigorous testing than try Modernbill, Trust me it's no fun. Hold on to your pants, it will come soon. Besides, is v3 not holding it's weight or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

openmind Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 The same problems faced Helm when they release v4 before it was anywhere near ready two years ago, in fact it is still now riddled with bugs. WHA released a buggy and unstable product mainly down to the pressure that users put them under, they caved in and the whole thing went tits up. I couldn't care less if WHMCS v4 takes one week, month or year to be released as long as it is 100% stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylove4life Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Don't even get me started with v4 of Helm... After that screw up I moved to something else..

bear Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Some of you guys are wound a bit too tight and are a bit to eager to jump.... What do you mean by that!!! . and I own a Modern Bill license. Been there done that Managed to sell mine just before they stopped allowing it. Terrible experience. I'm in no hurry for v4, but from past experience, there are generally few bugs that make it to the release version, and they are usually fixed quite fast. No complaints from me at all.

Roger Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 I tried MB first and just couldn't make it work.... and after their "upgrade" it was even worse. I accidentally discovered WHMCS while googling and I bought it back in 2005. ... I've watched WHMCS grow from just Matt, phpBB forums, no mods and he was answering live chat himself. WHMCS has never lost it's individual service attitude. Matt and his crew make you feel important when you ask for help. Something that many have lost a long time ago. What do you mean by that!!! What do mean, what do I mean...!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have asked many questions of Matt and always got concise and informative answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detailservice Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 This kind of thread must be every software companys dream... Hungry customers eagerly awaiting a new version - not because the previous was buggy or bad, but simply because all of us are getting used to the high quality work from Matt and his team! Yes, I do care if it takes a week or a year befora v4 comes out, as I do need the multicurrency feature and some of the other new features, in order for me to move all my billing onto WHMCS... But I still want a bug-free piece of software - so don't rush as long as you release it soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
