This just in, again!

pluGGd.in, a great showcase for startups wrote about Remindo today.

While Ashish gave us a thumbs up in the interface department saying:

(Remindo interface is) the most apt way to get started when it comes to building social software for (the) enterprise market

In an interesting turn of events, he insists that we are more about project management than an intranet!

Now this is a great affirmation that the project management and collaboration features that we have built in are useful, he has also given us some valuable advice on how to take things forward as an intranet.

As expected, a fair and intelligent review from pluGGd.in. Read the full text here

One of the biggest features (see tour!) that has gone live with the new Remindo 1.0 release is the power of branding your free intranet with your company logo and getting a custom URL for your business. Since both of these are sensitive for any business, we thought it would be a good idea to allow only one person in an intranet to be able to do this. We call this guy the ‘domain administrator’.

A domain administrator is a super-admin user that gets to:

• Upload and edit your company’s logo
• Get a custom URL for your free intranet like https://yourcompanyname.remindo.com
• Remove users from the intranet
• Make somebody else a domain administrator

Typically, the best person to have these privileges would be a C-level exec (like a CIO/CEO) or a system admin. Nevertheless, we let this decision lie with you and your team. You just need to place a request with the domain owner and upon his approval, you can become the administrator. There can only be one domain administrator at a time.

If you want even more personalization and want a URL like http://intranet.yourcompany.com or http://www.yourcompany.com/intranet  just get in touch with us here or simply email us at remindo[at]remindo[dot]com. We’d love to help you with the process.

It’s been a long way, but we’re here now. Presenting, Remindo 1.0 (applause!)

We have completely overhauled Remindo from the inside-out. Here’s what has changed:

• A swanky, new UI that puts sharing at the heart of the Remindo experience. This new UI will make navigation simpler and let you interact with your team and clients just like you do on Facebook and Twitter (see this in action!)
• Personalization and company branding options. You can now personalize your intranet on Remindo with your company logo and get a customized URL like https://intranet.yourcompany.com. After all, if you are a virtual team, nothing says “organized and professional” to your clients like a sleek, personalized intranet plus collaboration space.
• Email integration. You no longer need to log in to your intranet on Remindo to post comments on discussion threads. Just reply to the notification in your email and the comment will be automatically posted. You can also attach files to these emails and they will be uploaded as well.

Of course, all the other great things about Remindo haven’t changed. Your intranet will be secured with VeriSign SSL and Amazon Web Services (look for the https in the address bar). Support will continue to be 24×7x365.

And just so there’s no confusion regarding this, your secure and free intranet on Remindo will be open to unlimited users, clients and projects.

One last thing; from the entire team at Remindo, a big THANK YOU to our users for supporting us with feedback, comments and ideas. You will find a lot of that feedback in action inside. So, please do give the new Remindo a spin, while our developers actually go home and sleep today!

And if you are still too lazy to sign up and try things for yourself, take the tour here.
