Are you ready for 2.5?

 ABS is really close I would say days away. Another important request came to us, and we couldn't resist including it in 2.5.

Now ABS is capable of uniquely identify USB drives! What this means to you? Well, if you created a backup in a particular USB, and you happen to have multiple USB pen drives, and external hard rives... well ABS will only backup to the particular USB where the backup was done first! You always overwrite this option.

                 Even more! ABS if configured properly, will automatically launch the Backup Profile, right after the right USB drive is connected!!!

LiveUpdate Progress

Hi there! Live update as expected is turning in an incredible tool for ABS. The idea was to create a new LiveUpdate tool, capable of work different for different regions. Basically now we can control the updates for Americas different than the ones in Europe.!.

This new enhancement creates an incredible flexibility, now we can issue builds faster as each region will have his own update repository.

The UI was as expected changed, but since it was so simple to begin with, you probably not see a lot. Believe me, we constructed from nothing! As we didn't want to carry old code to the new version.

Are we there yet?

Have you noticed the Blog-Post Icon? Well, we are getting ready for the alpha release. It is incredible the transformation, and the road we traveled so far... Since we started we knew two things; this would be a great challenge and also ABS will be better than ever.

Don't get exited yet, just few more things to work on, and we will be ready for the alpha testing. Hopefully not so many bugs will be discovered, and we can GA version 2.5.

For the progress report: We just need to re-write live-update, and we're done!!!

just as a preview I'm adding some screen shots of the new ABS 2.5.
