The thing we need most while building CSRemoteDesk is feedback from people who use it for real work. We do not leave that contribution unrewarded: meeting just one of the conditions below earns you lifetime free use for personal purposes.
What you will be testing: the CSRemoteDesk beta release.
You do not need to do all of them. Completing any one of the following qualifies you — doing more makes you far more valuable to us, but it is not required.
Tell us about at least one bug you have run into. It is enough for us to confirm it — you do not have to wait for the fix.
A small interface glitch counts just as much as a dropped connection. If it is something we already know about, we will say so and you can qualify another way.
Describe something you would like added. If your suggestion is reviewed and makes it into the product, you qualify.
If it goes onto the roadmap we will let you know, and you will see it credited in the notes of the release that ships it.
Put in at least 8 hours of actual use before the beta ends. Using it for your day-to-day work counts.
You report the time yourself; we do not track you. A short note now and then about what you tried is all we need.
Even if the product becomes paid later, you keep using it indefinitely and free of charge for your own personal use. You will not be asked to pay afterwards.
Feature requests from beta participants are reviewed first. You help decide where the product goes next.
You try new features before anyone else; release notes and builds come straight to you.
Your issue does not join a call-centre queue. It reaches the person who writes the software, and you get a fast answer.
If you like, your contribution is credited in the release notes and on the site. If you would rather stay anonymous, your name appears nowhere — your choice.
The free right covers personal use. If you later want a licence for your company, beta participants get a permanent discount.
No membership, no forms, no sign-up. All you have to do is write to us.
The "Geri Bildirim Yapın" button on the connection window opens a form where you pick a type: bug report, feature suggestion, security issue or general comments. You can format the message, paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V and attach files. Your version, Windows version and ID are filled in automatically, and if you close the form before sending, what you wrote is kept.
Putting "Beta Test Programme" in the subject line helps us pick your message out quickly.
If you are reporting a bug, these details speed things up: the version number you are running, your Windows version, whether you used the portable or the full installation, how to reproduce it, and a screenshot if you have one.
Send an emailNo. Any one of them is enough. Reporting a bug that we confirm qualifies you on its own, and so does an accepted feature suggestion or 8 hours of testing.
It covers your own personal use: connecting to your own computers, helping family and friends, and so on. The right does not expire even if the product becomes paid, and you will not be charged later.
The only thing outside it is commercial or business use — running it as part of your company's operations or to serve your customers. For that, beta participants get a permanent discount.
We do not — your own word is what counts. There is no counter watching you. Just tell us now and then what you tested and what did or did not work; those notes are the valuable part anyway.
We will tell you straight away. That particular report will not qualify you, but the other two routes stay open — report another bug, suggest a feature, or take part through testing. We will help you find the route that suits you.
There is no fixed date; it will end when the product reaches a stable release. We will announce the closure on this page. Entitlements earned before then are unaffected — once you have qualified, it is permanent.
We would suggest joining early: the easy-to-find bugs get scarcer as the beta goes on.
A beta is a test release; unexpected behaviour and interruptions are possible. Connection security (AES-256 encryption) is active in the beta as well. We would not recommend relying on it as your only option for critical work — keep a backup way in.
Note also that beta builds stop running 30 days after they were compiled; keep an eye on the download page for the current one.
Download it, use it, and write to us when something does not work. Taking part needs nothing more than that.
