We have offered a 20% discount to existing Timeslips customers switching to Tabs3 Software for years, and this popular promotion will continue.  Beginning today, the maximum discount that a firm can receive by switching to Tabs3 from Timeslips will be $200.  You will soon see this change reflected on the web site.  As a reminder, it only applies towards a new purchased license of Tabs3 (including Client Server), and firms must provide us with proof of purchase to receive their discount.

Since Palm has not made any changes to the Palm Development Kit since 2004, we will not be providing a Palm Conduit for Version 16 PracticeMaster.  The most current Palm Development Kit that Palm provides to software companies was released in 2004.  The Palm Development Kit was not designed to work with the tools that our programmers use today.  Palm also stopped selling devices that use this technology in 2007, so we feel this will affect a relatively few number of users.  In addition, we have made significant improvements with Outlook synchronization in Version 16 which will provide a much better user experience when synchronizing handheld devices to PracticeMaster through Outlook.

Version 16 Beta is right around the corner and is packed with features that clients will love.  Here are just a few of the new features that you will see in Version 16:

• A new easy, more automated way to e-mail statements to clients
• New Client Inactivity Report in Tabs3
• Automatic two-way Microsoft Outlook synchronization of contacts and calendar entries in PracticeMaster
• PracticeMaster Premier WorkFlows to automate and make sure that you don’t forget tasks and procedures (e.g., when you save a new client, get prompted to add a calendar entry for your first meeting, etc.)
• Enhanced Contact Management in Tabs3, PracticeMaster, and Tabs3 Trust Accounting
• New Log Off User feature for Client Server Versions 
• Enhanced Outlook Sync with Exchange Server for Client Server Version users

To obtain your Version 16 Beta, e-mail [email protected] and we will reply with a beta agreement.  Be sure to share this e-mail address with eligible clients that are also interested in receiving a Version 16 Beta.  We anticipate Betas will be available by the end of September for you, followed in a few weeks to your users.
