1.3.0 Release Notes
Release 1.3.0 was launched at 11:00 PM (PST) on Monday, September 21st, 2009. Included in the release were three key features:
Usage-Based Pricing
We’ve been inundated with requests for this. We understand that every Bluyah user makes use of different features within the application and having a single monthly price for access doesn’t makes sense if you only need a handful of features.
Moving forward, the price you pay will be based solely upon how much you use the service. At a high level it’s pretty simple:
$5 a month and $0.50 per 1,000 views
So what does that really mean? Well, here are the details:
- To begin with, we’re going to deposit $10 of our own money into your account (just to get you started!).
- As you use the Bluyah service to render ad-hoc reports, or charts, or maps, or other things, we’ll deduct $0.50 for every 1,000 times you or another user views one of your creations.
- Each month there will be a small monthly fee of $5 deducted from your account.
- As time goes by, refill your account as needed by logging into your account and going to the My Account section.
To help you calculate what your potential usage fees may be under this new plan, we’ve put a handy usage calculator online.
Free Account is Fully Functional
This has been the biggest complaint from users of our free service. We’ve removed all restrictions on the free account. You now have the full range of features at your disposal. Have fun!
Daily Usage Chart
Given the new usage-based structure, we figured folks are going to want to see how much they’re actually using the service, so you’ll notice a new “Usage” section in My Account. The page will give you a summary of your usage to-date. Detailed usage charts will be coming soon.
As always, feel free to contact us at support@bluyah.com if you have any questions.
