Alpha tester: applications

Great!,
Now it’s the norm to keep your “primary” system specs on the forum as a signature.
Obviosly, if you are like me you may have 1 work system and one home. Just use the PC that you use the most and have admin rights too.
Because you may be asked by the dev team or you yourself may want to change settings to see if it resolves an issue at some point.
Other than that, write your posts clearly. if you have any ideas that you have about powerarchiver tools, features or even new requests please post them.
If you feel it’s for the dev team only which can happen, just email them via the support page.
Your a programmer, so you are more than aware that at Alpha “prealpha” you are accessing potential unreliable software and even more importantly a glimse into the future of the program.
So it takes time for the dev team to trust a person to reach alpha level as you can fully understand.
We obviosly dont want the competitors to get wind of any new features in the testing motion before it’s offical.
;) If you are a PA fan, you will remember the time we brought out the 1st ever archive tool with ribbon interface.
Winzip soon followed… and in our opinion they still cant get it rite :D
Ow, and speak your mind! if you feel pasionate about something dont give up but explain why. I still remember arguing the toss over why PA should have FTP! and adjustments to the way it looks or works in certain aspects and many of them are still in thought and some are in the program and to me thats the rewarding aspect.
hope this all make sense and welcome!
PS: Remember, there is 2012 Beta 2 out now so start testing buddy!

I am an unofficial tester….I like stealth mode :P

I am using Powerarchiver 2012 at the moment, it’s stable, but has a few issues which need addressing but other than that it is a vast improvement.
I am installing VMware tomorrow and will be running Windows 8 and will be trying this on Windows 8 to see if it works as well.

Hi Jonessie,
We hope that you have reported any issues you find need addressing. You can report it here on the forum, in the Tech Support section or email support which you can find in the support section on the main page.Tx!!!

I would like to become a alpha tester, in our company we use PA 2013, and always before we put new version via group policy, we are testing if everything works as it should.
We use Win 7 Enterprise, Win 8, and Win 8.1 on the different hardware

keep in mind these are not for production environments - well at least not to install on co-workers computer… Alpha’s are really alpha’s, not beta’s that we release to general public. However, they will not burn the house down :P

It is very clear to us, the alpha version would be here in our IT division tested on a dedicated PC that are designated for such things, and we would like to help with the development, and by the way we have good security against fire :P :D :D :D

Need more people with fast CPU’s, lots of cores and memory :-)

As I can already access the Alpha testing forums I’m guessing that I need not apply.

I think big colorful Alpha Tester sign next to your name should be indicative :-)

Thought as much. ;-)
