A call for feedback on monetisation
As we move towards a more stable, scalable product our thoughts turn lightly to money. Specifically, how do we get this thing to pay for itself (that would be a nice start). Or better, actually become a product that has sufficient traction in terms of revenue to allow us to devote more time and resource to it’s growth and future development (we do have some pretty cool ideas we’d like to devote time to rolling out).
Our thoughts so far revolve around some of the common SaaS business models. Freemium, flat rate monthly or charging tiers based on items tracked (effectively similar to impression based charging), a combination of all? And what about price points? What are people prepared to pay on a re-occurring basis for access to the app?
We obviously have some ideas but in in true Web 2.0 style we are open to comments below from any of you.
Thanks in advance :)
Multiple User Support Added
We have just released the ability for admins to add multiple users to an account. This is the biggest functionally change since the complete recode of the core and we couldn’t be happier.
What does all this mean?
Adding the ability for multiple users allows each person on the team to have their own account instead of using and sharing one set of details.
Another feature of the new multiple persons on one accounts is the ability to assign a “User” or an “Administrator” role to a person. A “user” is person who can read all the information but is unable to add, edit or delete things. For example you may want to give access to a client but dont want them to accidentally delete anything the user role is perfect for them. An “Administrator” has free reign in the account.
How do I add new users to my account?
After selecting an account from the account list you will notice the top right menu now has a link called “Account Settings”.
In the “Account Setting” page you have will see that we have added a users panel. To add a new users just click the “Add Person to Account” link in the bottom of the panel and then just follow the steps. Simplez
Accounts with Multiple users added.
Air Analytics now supports accounts and multiple users. Yay…. So what does this mean? Well accounts are now the center of Air Analytics users. So a user can belong to, have many, and even create their own accounts. Applications are now attached to accounts, you can still add an unlimited amount of Applications to each account. Unlimited users can also be added to user each account. Roles have been also been added to Air Analytics. The three new user account roles are:
- Administrator – People who own the account or need to be able to change everything in the account
- Developer – This is for the application developers, this role can add type and edit some areas in Air Analytics
- User – This is a general user of Air Analytics, it is a read only account best suited for product mangers, clients, etc.
An administrator can add users and assign user roles to the account. We have gone out of our way to make “users”, “accounts” and “roles” a seamless and non obtrusive in Air Analytics.
We have also made added some major performance enhancing changes such as html caching, script and sql performance changes.
