Hi Maximizers,
Well MergeCRM has hit the iTunes store. Here is a link for download: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mergecrm/id386656607?mt=8
Actually, it has been there since August 18th. Since the release we have found a few bugs which we resolved. So if you downloaded version 1.0 and have not yet updated your version, please do so now. Please note that as updates become available your iPhone will let you know, so don’t ignore your app store icon.
As for the Synchronization engine it can be downloaded from http://www.islandcrm.com/mergecrm.html . Please remember that you will need to use a third party ftp server to share the data between your MergeCRM iPhone app and MergeCRM sync engine.
If you are a Maximizer Reseller and you are interested in becoming a IslandCRM Reseller, please apply through the following link: http://www.islandcrm.com/ResellerApplication.aspx
Cheers,

Greetings Maximizers,
If you have been watching our IslandCRM website and patiently awaiting the release of the Maximizer iPhone app “MergeCRM”, you may notice that our release date was scheduled for July 1st 2010. Unfortunately, we are behind schedule due to unforeseen development issues and Apple’s release of OS4 for the iPhone, which required us to rework our code. Our expected new beta release date is now July 12th 2010, pushing our market release date to August 16th 2010. Thank you all for your patience. We promise it will be well worth the wait!
We are still compiling our beta tester list, so, if you are interested in becoming a beta tester, please send your iPhone serial number to us at betas@islandcrm.com as soon as possible. To find your iPhone serial number please follow these steps:
1. From the main screen on your iPhone, tap the “Settings” icon.
2. On the Settings screen, tap the General section.
3. Now tap the About section.
4. Scroll down a ways and you will see an item for “Serial Number”.
If you have been curious about the iPhone 4, here is a great link to Tech Republic’s iPhone 4 review covering everything you wanted to know about the new iPhone 4 and more. Plus, if you really want to get a good look at the inner workings of your iPhone, but you don’t want to risk voiding your warranty, then check out this other article by Tech Republic, “Cracking Open the Apple iPhone 4”.
Cheers,

Greetings Maximizers,
Long time no speak! As you know, MaxPost’s scheduled release date was to be May 1, 2010, but, of course, there was a delay. However, we here at IslandCRM are pleased and excited to announce that MaxPost is now available for purchase. We are able to take sales orders over our sales line at 1-866-960-9831, option 1, or, you can proceed directly to our purchase page by clicking this snazzy graphic:

Visit the MaxPost Purchase Page
The funny thing about the delay is that the product had nothing to do with it; it was our website’s fault. We had to have a site that supported certain technologies to allow online ordering, and our current registrar didn’t support what we needed; we had to make a switch. If any of you have had to switch registrars while using a website and emails registered to them, you can understand the nightmares that can ensue – I think we experienced all of them! Then, when we thought we had everything figured out, we discovered we didn’t have one of the options we needed selected with the registrar (Microsoft SQL vs. MySQL). Little did we know that changing this required a server move which disrupted us for another 24 hours. It looks like we are now through the worst of it, and although our website looks very similar, it has completely been reworked under the hood!
As for MergeCRM (Maximizer for iPhone), production is on schedule for the July 1, 2010 release date. We are currently working through features and the interface feel. Updates are coming weekly! I have received overwhelming feedback from those of you wanting to be involved in Beta testing. As soon as we are in Beta, we will be selecting candidates to work with us. Please understand that although we’d love to let everyone test MergeCRM there will be a limited number of spots available for this testing phase. Any business partners currently using Maximizer version 10, 10.5, or 11 who are interested in participating in MergeCRM Beta testing should contact us at betas@islandcrm.com .
We’ll keep you posted on more details! If you want to keep up to date on all the happenings in and around IslandCRM or if you are interested in Maximizer tips and tricks or you just want to be kept up-to-date on MergeCRM, MaxPost or future Maximizer plug-ins we have planned, subscribe to our RSS feed, befriend the Maximizer Guy on Facebook (direct link to follow shortly), like the IslandCRM Consulting Inc page (direct link to follow shortly, as well), check out our YouTube channel and follow us on Twitter.
We’ll be in touch,
Shannon Porter – The Maximizer Guy
