After a laborious 2010, the Remobo team is excited to announce the latest release of Remobo v0.50 at the beginning of the new year. This marks a significant milestone for the Remobo Service:  the PRO features has finally arrived.

Here’s the New Year Resolution list for v0.50:

PRO Features

We’ve completed re-architecture the whole Remobo program and separate it into front-end user interface and back-end service modules.  This allows Remobo to run in Unattended-Mode and support AutoStart Service.  It also means you can finally control Remobo Service via the newly debuted Command-Line Interface (CLI) for Remobo. These PRO features are handy for things like media center, file sharing server, database server, source repositories, and any type of servers that you wanna be able to connect to remotely without attentions.

Better User Experience

The #1 complains over the past versions was the user registration process.  We’ve completed redesigned the registration flow, and now you can register from either the Remobo program or web site

Notice that the Remobo Forum is now integrated with the Remobo user database, which means you can use the same Remobo UserID and password to sign on the Forum and make your post.  Because of this single-sign-on Account consolidation, we are unable to migrate the old Forum's user & their contents into the new one. Let us know if this is a problem for you.

Also, all 3 platforms are updated in this release. This has become a tradition & commitment for Remobo team to always maintain the latest versions across all 3 major platforms of Windows, Mac,and Linux, while providing the same, consistent user experiences on all of them.

Quality Improvements

There’re literally hundreds of bug fixes that go into v0.50. Kudos to the Remobo team and thanks for all of you who provides comments and bug reports  There’s also a great deal of performance enhancement under the hood.  We’re confident that Remobo offers one of the fastest VPN solutions you can find today.

New Website and Logo

A Remobo Logo contest was held earlier last year, and we are met with a lot of ensuthiastic designers over the contest.  The winner is now unveiled along with the new web site layout.  We hope you enjoy the new slick design of the logo and the website. Be sure to visit the new Forums and give us your feedbacks. Remember you now have integrated account on both the Remobo web site and the Remobo program, by using your existing Remobo UserID. You can register your Remobo Account here if you don't have one yet.

v0.50 is a big achievement for the Remobo team.  Since v0.30, we have trimmed down the integrated Apps, and focus on delivering a high quality, stable, zero-configuration VPN. We've accomplished this mission in v0.50. Going onward, we'll bring back the Integrated Apps like VNC and others. Be sure to voice out your favorite apps on Remobo through the new Forums, or to email to us at the usual address: "support (at) remobo (dot) com".

Stay tuned for more!
