I see a lot of similarities with this self-hosted newsletter mail application: http://sendy.co/

#132I do think this is a market long forgotten and I do love the application itself. Congratulations on getting it to market!
The one thing I can really agree on here is the installation procedure involved with users. I know someone brushed on it but it may be worth looking into Linode StackScripts and Amazon EC2 Images?
It might not even be a problem or suit your needs but I think it might help in some cases

#133Hi, this looks like a nice and affordable product for freelancers like me. Great job! If I purchase this app now, will I get free updates (eg, bug fix) for at least a certain period of time?

#134Nice work! At $49 you are seriously undervaluing this product. I'd think you could easily charge $395 or more. If I'm looking for a self hosted option for project management, I'm likely in an org w/ some security restrictions, etc - AKA the Enterprise. $49 may even lead me even think it's "too small" to buy if i'm the Enterprise purchaser...
When I first decided to start building this product, I had just started my freelance career. I seriously considered ActiveCollab which is in the price range you're talking about, but I just didn't have the resources to buy it. I want this to be accessible to as many people as possible, even those people just staring their business. But I agree, I will definitely lose out on some customers because they think it's too…
Thank you for doing that! As a freelancer, I'm much more willing to try a product out for $45 than anything above $100.

#135I can't find the system requirements. It's difficult to buy software you'll run yourself without understanding what dependencies I'll need to support in order to host it.

#136Earlier quoted context omitted.
Just out of curiosity - your site doesn't seem to mention whether customers would receive product updates or not, or even if there will be any. Is this something you have planned out?
Yes, customers receive all updates for free. I should probably add that to the landing page.
Fantastic! That's nice to know

PHP 5.3 andy Mysql. I'll add a more prominent requirements section now since a lot of people have trouble finding it.

#138Great design! Is it possible for both clients and admins to add tasks? I can't seem to find the action to add tasks as a client...
No, clients can't add tasks. It would be extremely simple to modify the app so that they can. It wouldn't take more than 5 minutes to make that change. I can help if you decide to purchase it...
Fantastic! That would make this perfect for me. Once I read (in an above update) that updates are included, I purchased the app in a heartbeat!!
I just shot you an e-mail via codecanyon.
Looks great! Looking forward to giving it a shot tonight.

#139Constructive tone: When I try to print, it looks really bad.
I have never thought about this feature for an app like this however now that you mention it, this is something I could see myself finding very useful, especially printing the Tasks list

You sure do. If you purchase the app you will get all updates for free.
