Intro CC: New Product Manager Joining the Team
tl;dr: Product manager coming in to help CC development. Talk to us, contact info below!
Hey Everyone, My name is Alex and I am joining the Calibre Companion team! I'm extremely excited to work on this tool you love. I understand there have been some problems with the application and I'm here to hopefully resolve all of these moving forward. I have years of experience handling product development and we as a community should start seeing some great improvements. Moving forward I want your voice to define the new features and updates. We want to drive the app to be user centric. Please send your contact information to the email below if you'd be open to speaking with me, I want to conduct interviews and gather your feedback. CCfeedback@goldtreeway.com I look forward to speaking to as many users as possible! Rev |

Open discussion here is better IMO.

I think not for what he's talking about. One of the downsides to group discussions is that sometimes suggestions can be shouted down, or people hesitant to make suggestions. There have certainly been more that a few posters on MobileRead who seem to strongly feel that their opinion is the only valid response and any disagreement is not to be tolerated.
There is still a suggestions thread that you can post to if you want to. |

Admittedly I'm an Android-only CC user and have, so far, been spared any disruption to service. To Alex, here's my personal feedback (no private conversations required) I won't care if you never add a single new CC feature as long as you keep the Android version running as-is on newer versions of Android (Google permitting). |

Feedback Email should work now
Hey Everyone,
Sorry about that email bounce, had to toggle a setting on our side. Please try reaching out again so we can schedule some calls! As far as the feedback communication channel, the forum is not the proper way to capture clear user requirements from a product development standpoint. Also phone calls and face to face is the best way in my opinion. I hear you on the app stability, if that is priority #1, let me hear it! Please be patient with us. Our goal is to establish that same communication you had with the previous owner and I'm here to talk to with you. Alex |

- Oops, my bad, I overlooked the "My name is Alex and I'm . . . [here to help]", I thought his name was 'Rev'. I was wondering if Jackie was reaching out to a newly discovered member of the CC development resources that Rev/Alex/Sam are driving ever forward
