Benefits of Participating in Beta


Each release of StrongMail EAS and Message Studio goes through a rigorous testing and certification process. From the software engineers who unit test their code to the quality assurance engineers who hammer on the application in every way they can think of to try to break it, StrongMail software gets put through the wringer in order to make sure that our customers get the most robust product possible.

Unfortunately, there are just some things that we cannot reproduce in our testing environment. For that, we need the help of our customers. We need customers to put StrongMail EAS and Message Studio through real-world trials, including high-volume and high-frequency sending, very large data sources and advanced targeting queries.

As we get closer to the release of StrongMail EAS and Message Studio 4.2, we are looking for customers who are willing to install the Beta software and test it out using their own templates, mailings, and process. Testing those types of scenarios will make sure that we have captured any remaining issues before the final certification process.

What, you ask, would make someone want to participate in the Beta program? Well, there are many reasons, including

  • Early access to new features, enhancements, and bug fixes
  • Opportunity to provide real-time feedback and have direct influence on the software
  • Extra support from StrongMail for installations and addressing reported issues
  • Test new software in advance of its availability
Below is a short list of some of the new features that will be available to 4.2 Beta program participants

  • Numerous usability enhancements
  • New EAS clustering options
  • New and improved APIs
  • New dynamic content testing engine
  • Enhanced standard reporting options
  • Business Intelligence Server integration for advanced and ad-hoc reporting
If you are interested in being 4.2 Beta program participant, contact us at product@strongmail.com.
