Pamela update released (4.8.0.107)

We released an updated Pamela version. This release addresses an issue with Skype group video call recording as well an issue where Pamela Call Recorder would not record unlimited after it has been activated. Also some other smaller issues were resolved.

In addition we’ve changed the way Pamela updates itself (starting from the next update). Instead of a download via your browser, Pamela will download the new update by herself and start the update process. This is much easier and secure.

You will be notified of the update automatically. Enjoy!

PamFax update released

We are very proud to announce a new PamFax release, version 3.5. Some major changes were made and new functions added. In detail.

  • Address book function with upload option.
  • Custom cover page function (allows to upload your own templates with logo, etc.
  • New drag ‘n drop send fax UI.
  • New recommend to friends.
  • Further changes made to: Online Storage and Notification Settings.
  • Minor improvements and fixes.

The address book function is a function which will allow to upload address information with fax numbers via an import option. Once uploaded PamFax will make available the fax numbers to you when you want to send a fax.

We have also added an option to upload custom cover pages. Now you can create a custom cover page with available variables and your company logo and upload it to PamFax. When you then create a new fax the custom cover page can be easily added to the fax.

We’ve also made fax sending a lot easier. Windows users can simply drag and drop a file on the PamFax window and it will be prepared for sending.

It is now also possible to make easier recommendations to your friends via Facebook, Twitter and Google+.

In addition we optimized other areas like Online Storage and Notification Settings.

There is no update required if you have the PamFax Windows or Macintosh application installed. The above functions are available immediately and at no extra cost. We hope you enjoy the new version and as always look forward to your feedback.

New Pamela update released (4.8.0.91)

We pushed out an update for all Pamela editions today (PCR, Basic, Pro, Biz). We had to make some changes for Skype 5.11 Beta which was released recently. Users who have Pamela installed will be offered the update automatically. Just download, install and you’re ready to go!

Pamela update released (4.8.0.88)

We released an update for Pamela for Skype (including the Call Recorder). This update is a hotfix addressing a few issues. One key issue which has been resolved is when trying to record video, Pamela could in some rare cases show an error message (Error occurred in Media recording. Unable to connect to Skype Audio Ports.).

This resulted in only audio being recorded and not the video.

You will be notified automatically of the new version, just download, install and you’re up to date again.

PamFax for iOS updated

An update of PamFax for iOS was just released. We have made the registration easier and also improved the workflow when you need to buy some PamFax credit before your current fax can be sent in the latest version 2.0.3.
Your iPhone/iPad should automatically notify you about this update.

If you like PamFax for iOS, consider rating it on iTunes. Thanks!
