Allmyapps new release coming soon… here’s a preview!

March 9th, 2010

Hi Everybody! The last weeks were pretty busy at Allmyapps as we’re readying a new exciting release for you! We thought it could be a good idea to let you test what’s coming next so we’ve set up a beta version of our new release for you to see:

1. New Easy Setup interface. Browsing Allmyapps to find cool Applications are nice but when you just want to quickly setup a new computer, you don’t want to go through every category to find the apps you want to add in your list. This is why we’ve setup an “Easy Setup” page which gathers the best applications by category so that users can just create the list of applications they want to install in a few seconds.

2. Allmyapps Bundles for 1 click offline installation of your list of applications. Allmyapps now allows you to download your list of applications as a 1 click installable Bundle that you can transport on an USB key. It is especially useful if you need to install applications on PCs with no internet connection or if you just want to install the same list on several computers without having to download each application all over again.

3. Enhanced user interface. Our search interface has been revamped to be clearer and more efficient: each application is now shown as a small widget containing the most relevant information about the app. It makes finding applications much more efficient and fun.

4. Much improved usability. We were not satisfied with our current installation mechanism which required having Allmyapps Secure installer preinstalled for the service to work. With this new release, there is no need to preinstall anything; Allmyapps will work right out of the box! This will also simplify sharing your list of applications a lot!

5. A top notch application catalog. Having a great (read: complete &up-to-date) application catalog is key and we have a dedicated team working day and night to create the best application catalog out there: the best desktop applications out there are now installable in 1 click from Allmyapps. And users need not worry: every application has been carefully tested by our team: it is a 100% toolbar and virus free catalog.

So do not wait any further and go check it out in exclusivity at this address: http://beta.allmyapps.com by using the invitation code “AMABLOG”.

As always, we’re looking forward to reading your valuable feedbacks that keep us increasing the quality of our services and make managing your PC always easier.

PS: Techcrunch has posted a nice article on Allmyapps new release!

January 14th, 2010

Allmyapps has had a very good CES show last week in Las Vegas: Good business, good contacts, good mood… exactly what we love :-) Thibauld will tell you more about it in a next post.

Today it is time to go back to work so we’ve put online the first new apps of 2010! Be assured that a whole lot more will come this year as we recently upgraded our internal tools to increase our efficiency and reactivity when it comes to adding new applications. We really aim at providing you with the best applications in their latest version and one of our new year resolution for 2010 is to deliver you new applications each week, the famous ones, the new ones… every application that you might need. So do not hesitate to blame me (Arnaud) if we ever fail on that point, but I can already tell you that this will not happen :-)

Ubuntu 9.10 now live on Allmyapps !

October 29th, 2009

karmic_koala
As you all probably know by now, Ubuntu 9.10 (aka Karmic Koala) has been released today. This is a great step forward for the Linux desktop and we surely did not want to lag behind with Allmyapps! So we’re happy to announce the immediate availability of Allmyapps for Ubuntu 9.10 (also in available in french for the first time).

We also setup a custom search page to provide you with a comprehensive and visually appealing list of the new desktop applications in Ubuntu 9.10 compared to Ubuntu 9.04. As you will see, this list is not truly exact as some “old” package will show up among the new ones but still, it gives you a very good overview of what’s new in Ubuntu 9.10.

This new release also brings a lot of small improvements like a new home page [I must admit I am particularly fond of our brand new fading carousel :) ], the ability to propose applications that should be installable from allmyapps and other things like an application submission page which we’ll talk about in a future post with more in-depth details about our strategy here.

Meanwhile, we really hope that you’ll enjoy using Allmyapps with your brand new Ubuntu 9.10 and please continue to send us your ideas and feedbacks as they are really valuable to us !

Once again, congratulations to all Ubuntu developers for this great new release !
