What's New In PerformerTrack?

Previous Topic Return Home Next Topic

 

When someone asks "What's new in PerformerTrack?" it is difficult to answer.

 

The short (and we must admit, exciting) answer would be "all of it" – simply put, this is the most extreme and large-scale upgrade of the original program (ActorTrack) that we have ever released. Practically every single aspect of the program has been overhauled and countless new and valuable features have been added, some of them exceptionally powerful. We have paid close attention to the feedback from our large user base and put in place all of the most demanded features, plus many functions that you may have never even dreamed of … but will not want to do without!

 

Don’t fear, all these advances don't mean that the application will be unfamiliar to you … quite the opposite. Our number-one priority was to preserve the "look and feel" of the original program and its unique and intuitive design so that existing ActorTrack users will feel instantly at home when logging in.

 

The main new features and improvements introduced in PerformerTrack are the following:

 

STRUCTURE
