New Support Site

Greeting Response Users!

We are happy to announce our webpage for Response support documents will soon have a new look.

We’ve been busy updating many documents that needed a facelift for 10x and converting all to .pdf format. PDF will provide speedier and uniform viewing across many platforms. Our new site allows for better visual categorization as well as extended descriptions of each document. Best of all there will be keyword searching! Long overdue, it will help you locate the documents that contain the information you need. Try to keep your keyword searches short and use search terms that match terms commonly found in Response. For example, if you are looking for information about coupons you might search either “Coupon”, or “Coupon Manager”. Keeping your search short will ensure that you end up where you need to be until we can make our keyword search more robust.

Our support staff will still be here to help too! We know even with better tools it’s often never as easy as we’d like it to be. So don’t hesitate to let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll be happy to provide a link and often even a page number within. We try to provide document links when appropriate. We believe this approach gives you the better information on the topic in general and encourages you to learn more if you’re so inclined J

We hope you find our documents provide answers as well as a better understanding of our Response product. They are a continuous work in progress. If you have suggestions to make them better or find errors, please share with us. We can often make corrections within minutes.

As always, we appreciate your feedback.

New DSA Report

We have completed converting our DSA report to instead use a SQL stored procedure to run all the calculations made against the data. With this change the DSA report now completes at lightning fast speeds! One comparison we ran showed that the old method took 2min, 35sec to complete for a 4 day specification. However, with the new changes the report took only 2 seconds to run with the exact same criteria.

We hope that you enjoy this upgrade to the DSA report, and look for more updates like this in the near future!
