| What happened to Realty/Auto Manager?
Listings Manager, Auto Manager, and Realty Manager are now the same program Actually, Realty Manager and Auto Manager have always been the same product, but with different templates and different fields configured. This was great for Auto dealers, but users in other industries sometimes assumed that the products were separate, and "hard-coded" for Automobile/Realty listings. Now, with Listings Manager, you get exactly the same product - including the starting templates and fields - but you choose which industry you want to use when you install the product. We've also added a "generic" industry to use as a starting point for complete customization. Having a single product makes it easier for interactivetools.com and our customers. Developing one program is easier for us than 2 (or more) subtle variations of the same product. It also makes it easier for resellers to order multi-packs (we've always honored mixing Realty Manager and Auto Manager, but now it's more intuitive). Upgrade users don't need to do anything differently. When you upgrade Realty Manager, you'll still see "Realty Manager" when you log in. Ditto for Auto Manager. The program will use your existing templates. And although we've changed the program executable to "admin.cgi", you can change it right back if you want. |
