GoalPro 2010 (version 6.5) is an update to the GoalPro 2008 code base. The code base in 2008/2010 has been an ongoing project since 2002, but written with (what is now) older development technology. Since you are a programmer you know exactly what I am talking about.

Version 7.0 is the start of the next phase of GoalPro, using the latest .NET development language, with the implementation of a more user-friendly interface. While GoalPro 7.0 is much more user-friendly when compared to previous editions, it isn’t yet quite as feature-rich as the more mature GoalPro 2010.

GoalPro 7.0 is just the start and its code base will continue to be enhanced in coming updates, and will quickly catch up and surpass features found in 2008/2010.

GoalPro 2010 was released for those customers who depend on GoalPro 2008 daily, but who now use the latest version of Windows (Vista and 7.0) and needed better compatibility.

GoalPro 7.0 is already much more popular than 2010 for both new and existing users. New users prefer its easy-to-understand interface, and the learning curve in GoalPro 7.0 is far less than any previous edition. GoalPro 7.0 is extremely solid and underwent over 6 months of beta-testing before its eventual release. This provides us with a solid foundation to build on.

I’ve never heard of Goalpro until yesterday. I’ve been looking into goals for a while and have products from Brian Tracy etc. I’ve found some of this material hard to put together into a systematic approach to be honest; to me it seems like there’s a fair bit of information compiling. I was glad to hear that there’s a goal setting software out there that’s been around for a while and that will make things a little easier, so thanks. I’ll be downloading the free trial today!

However, I will say that I agree with Ron and David in regards to the naming convention. I’m a software developer so I’m used to working with software. I think that naming the less complex edition, GoalPro 7, and the more complex, GoalPro 2010, is very ambiguous indeed. I understand that the webiste explanation will probably vindicate the names. However, the fact is, at first glance, Goalpro 2010 looks like a new product and GoalPro 7 looks like a previous product and I can imagine people that are not so PC literate becoming confused and buying the wrong product… I know my dad would

Like Ron said, I would take the criticism and explain to all of us the way it is; diplomatically and not so defensively.

GoalPro 2010 is for those customers who have become accustomed to the process found in previous editions of GoalPro, such as version 5.0, 6.0 and 2008. GoalPro 2010 is updated to run on XP, Vista and Windows 7.0.

GoalPro 7.0 is for those individuals looking for a more streamlined goal-setting process, without the learning curve. GoalPro 7.0 allows the user to quickly focus on their goal-setting efforts and not the goal-setting software.

The best part is that you do not need to decide which version to purchase because when you buy GoalPro you get BOTH GoalPro 2010 and GoalPro 7.0 — both editions for the price of one.

I first used Goalpro 6.0 a number of years ago and was very impressed. Unfortunately, I am a serious procrastinator and stopped using the product to my detriment. Now I have returned and I am looking forward to using this in a serious way. However, I must say that I am now a bit concerned about your personal attack on one of your users. I hope you won’t attack me for this, but I have no history with you and I have no axe to grind (I was just searching for Goalpro Android apps when I came upon this). From my outside and customer centric point of view – you sound defensive and vindictive. I know that David’s comments were somewhat harsh, but that is life. Why not take the opportunity to hear his complaint and take it as useful criticism. Especially since his second comment was very conciliatory – a bit of an olive branch I thought. Besides, I agree with him; your project positioning of GoalPro 7.0 and Goalpro 201 IS confusing. I could not tell what I was buying so I bought both and I am not too happy about that.

As a small business person myself, I have learned that you get little from positive comments. It is from your users that take the time to provide negative comments that you LEARN. As I said, I just stumbled across this, but if you believe that you have “set the record strait” you are wrong. To me you just look unprofessional. Sorry, I like your product and I bought it (version 7 and 2010). I want you to be successful so that you will be around in a few years to support and improve it. If you are this defensive it causes me to wonder about the state of your business.

Ron

I’m sorry you are experiencing issues with Autobackup.
Can I have one of our Support engineers reach out to you directly? It would be interesting to look at the logs to see what is happening under the hood. There may be some interaction with another process or application causing the issue, since it doesn’t sound like there are any active backups occurring.

You can contact me directly at ross@memeo.com.

Thanks,
