Ismuser.es already available!

Ismuser keeps moving forward and the spanish version of our service is finally here! After some months working exclusively in English, we decided we could not ignore 410 million of Spanish native speakers around the world, so we translated our website and did all the necessary to start operating natively in Spanish.

From now, you can access Ismuser in Spanish through www.ismuser.es and there you will find the same as always, but now totally translated. If you already have an account from ismuser.com, you are able to keep using it in ismuser.es.

If you find any kind of glitch, don't hesitate to report it using http://ismuser.es/bugs or just by [email protected].

Support and status pages now available!

We know problems may occur in every different way when dealing with code. Problems are something usual and they show up when you don’t expect them. We think they must be solved as soon as possible and keeping that in mind, we decided to improve our documentation adding explanatory images, segmenting and clarifying the whole document and finally adding a support page in where, we bring together a bunch of services fully dedicated to solve your problems.

The support page collects important information that probably might help when you get stucked or just get lost playing around with Ismuser. For instance, with the release notes you can check every update made on each Ismuser service or look for your doubts in our FAQ, where we’re trying to collect the most important issues from users.

We have even set up a mailbox where you can send us your problems and questions to get your issues fixed ([email protected]). Besides, we're starting to offer premium services related to extra support for critical businesses or for embedding Ismuser in third-party projects if you don’t want to get your hands dirty. If you are interested in either of the both services, just contact us by email.

Last but not least, we've also created a status page where you can check the current status of all our services or even if there is some maintenance in progress or scheduled. This page is meant to work every time, no matter what happens in our main infrastructure. Remind its existence when you got connection problems with our servers.

Ismuser rocking on Pecha Kucha Las Palmas vol. 10

Last Friday, we took the chance for attending to Pecha Kucha Night Las Palmas, an international event where people are able to put into words their projects facing a big excited crowd. Perhaps you may have heard it before, because it has been organized around the world in 600 cities for 10 years.

Pecha Kucha is originally a different and fresh way to show an idea or project. All the speakers have 20 slides which are automatically changed every 20 seconds, so the speaker has to take a deep care of timing.

Ismuser was there introducing itself and how videoconference can change the way a company works with its clients. We tried to focus in the fact that some current videoconference solutions are not enough for the most of the companies. And indeed what it is the most important thing, how companies are currently dealing with its clients when they use videoconference solutions that ruin the user experience, because they compel users to get registered, to download, to install, to log in, to call, etc. A bunch of steps that can be totally avoided.

We explained Ismuser is offering a way of communication in which “simple” is the most important word for the companies that are meant to use it, for the developers that are meant to embed it and finally for those users that are hopefully meant to enjoy it.

If you couldn’t attend Pecha Kucha last Friday and are curious about what we showed, just try it out in our live demos in http://demo.ismuser.com.

Incube, a nice way for moving forward

We're near, pretty near from the final release of our new API iteration. An iteration that even brings you a new web along with a new awesome dashboard to manage your API usage. But right now that's not the big announcement.

In this case, we're excited to tell you about our involvement in Incube, a great initiative from SPEGC for creating a big space where new startups may share knowledge and pushing them to get their goals. This is an amazing chance for us and we're focused to take the most out of it while we'll be working here.

We'll be participating in Incube for around 5 months, and in the meantime we'll place our headquarters into the new building that was built precisely for that purpose. It looks quite nice and we've already started to work there.

Incube is offering us the chance to get the right training for a wide range of startup topics such as corporate finance, marketing, product design and many more. Besides, we'll be mentored by Raul del Pozo who is meant to be a great support and an advisor for Ismuser.
