Abraquest 3.0 is coming!

Abraquest 3.0 is coming! Free for Abraquest Software Assurance customers, £199.95 + VAT for Abraquest users not on Abraquest Software Assurance.

If you are not on Abraquest Software Assurance, now would be a good time to do it, because it only costs £149.95 per year and you will get Abraquest 3.0 free when it arrives! This option will dissapear when Abraquest v3 is finally released.

At the last count there were 30 new features on Abraquest v3.0, 12 enhancements, and 4 bug fixes and counting - because we haven't finished just yet!

I am currently working on a feature to allow teachers to be emailed outstanding book details, which is something many customers have asked for.

There are many changes in Abraquest v3.0, too numerous to list in one blog post.

Please refer to the following links:

I'm just reading the release notes and there is so much to talk about. I'll just pick on one for now - Abraquest Automated Backup will now optionally automatically back up when Abraquest is closed.

We will have release notes, but even with the size of this release, what you are most likely to see when you install it - is little change initially. This is because a lot of the options will be turned off. You have to go to Configuration Options on the Base Data menu to turn hidden features on or off. We are happy to schedule an online session with any or all of our Abraquest Software Assurance customers to go through the changes and work out what is of interest to you and set it up through the base data menu for you. This of course will be free of charge.

Also please contact us if you have any questions.
