Lots of new code coming soon!!!

Posted by Roger Devine Wed, 01 Apr 2009 00:47:00 GMT

We’re currently testing a bunch of upgrades and fixes to key parts of the Tofino Auctions software.  It’s exciting stuff, and when we get it up, (e.t.a: April 9th), I’ll post here about the changes.

Live Webinar tomorrow night

Just a reminder that our regular webinar on "Training Your Event Night Volunteers" happens tomorrow night (and every Wednesday night through April) at 7 p.m.  We’ll review the NEW option for assigning bid numbers, along with everything else a smiling auction volunteer needs to know about using the Tofino Auctions software.  Sign up at:

What we've been working on

Posted by Roger Devine Sun, 15 Mar 2009 23:09:00 GMT

We’re in the thick of one of the busiest auction times of the year, and one of our best seasons to date.  Alongside helping with events, we’ve been working on lots of updates to the software and new ways to help: 

  • We’ve streamlined checkout by giving cart-adjustment and address-modification controls to checkout volunteers, right on the checkout page.
  • We’ve been reorganizing and weeding out the reports list, to remove redundant reports and make the others easier to find
  • We’ve added credit-card processing options, and tuned the returns process to work better with a wider range of card-processors
  • We’ve added the ability to reassign individual bid numbers on event night.

In addition to all of this, we started running event-night training webinars every week (go to http://webinars.tofinoauctions.com/register to sign up for one) - the first five have gone over really well.

AND… in slightly older news (but well worth repeating), we have online registration working for all customers.  To use you need to pay an additional….  nothing.  It’s there for you to use free, just for being a Tofino subscriber.  (Just like online auctions, for which we also charge an additional… nothing. When you become a Tofino subscriber, we believe you deserve to get everything we develop that helps you run a fundraising auction.)

Watch this space for future release notes - we roll out new code just about every week, and you can see what’s changed here.

Roger
