After much testing in private Alpha mode, the new Aruna Send interface and service is now live for the public to try out.

Aruna Send has evolved from a file sending only service to a service that makes SENDING, STORING AND SHARING files on the Internet easy.

There is a more detailed blog post up at Aruna Labs and you can read more about the new Aruna Send release there.

VisionTEN has helped to plan and build this release for Aruna Labs. We will continue to work on both the front end and back end infrastructure for Aruna.

Aruna Send has many more exciting features to come but we will let their team fill you in on those as they come down the pipe.

Today the service was promoted to public beta so go try it out!

The team has been busy working on a new release for Aruna IM, the enterprise instant messenger. The info about the release is pasted below for your convenience (from the Aruna Labs Blog)…

“Today we are releasing the next version of Aruna IM. The development team has been working hard to make many small improvements and it shows. Things are working very well and we are happy to introduce a major new feature. Web Conferencing.

Originally, we found that clients and companies using Aruna IM needed to have employees inside their company chatting in a secure manor. That has been solved by Aruna IM and has helped communication and efficiencies within the company. But what to do if you want to chat with a client, a vendor, a temp, a consultant, a supplier or any other third party? You don’t really want to provision an ID on the system for them for both security and management reasons. How do you chat with them easily?

Or what if you want to have a group chat and share some files with a few people involved on a disparate project team? Some people are inside the company and some are in USA and some in Europe, what to do now?

Aruna IM will allow you to create and send a web link to your conference participants, which will direct them to a web page to chat to you and the conference members. It can also be password protected for privacy if you like. And as with the regular Aruna IM, your chat sessions are always secure and encrypted.

The web chat also logs into your history to the server for compliance and regulatory reasons so your legal and compliance departments can remain happy! There is a even a file sharing capability so you can share files internally AND externally during your conferences and chat sessions.

If your company is looking for a corporate instant messaging solution that is secure BOTH inside and outside your company, let us introduce you to Aruna IM.

(Existing customers will be upgraded to the new version automatically)”

Yesterday we released a new version of VTwitter (0.51b) with a couple of small, but handy changes.

1. It can now convert URLs automatically into a short URL using ArunaURL. This helps free up space so you use up less of the 140 character per message limit.
2. You can now drag and drop an email onto the VTwitter Zimlet. The first 140 characters of that email will be entered automatically into the message to be sent to Twitter.

VTwitter is available on Aruna Email now. It can also be downloaded for Zimbra ZCS administrators to install on their Zimbra installations.

Aruna Labs wanted to offer several alternative access methods to their new file sending service - Aruna Send. We helped them build a “widget” so that both Mac and PC users can send files for free, right from their desktop and not have to go to the web if they don’t want to. The post about the widget release on their blog says it all so look there for all of the details.

The initial version was launched 4 days ago and there has already been 1000+ downloads of the software. The Aruna Send widget is available immediately and can be found here.

We have recently helped Aruna Labs with the development of two Zimlets for their Aruna email product. It integrates their Aruna Send functionality into Aruna email. It allows their customers to send large files directly from their email webmail interface. The second zimlet allows connection with Aruna URL for the conversion of any long or unmanagable URL to a short URL link.

We will continue to maintain and develop the software releases for Aruna.

Here is the announcement of the Zimlet release from Aruna Labs.

We have been working with Aruna Labs on their new product called Aruna Send. It is a service for businesses to send large files easily. Their service has launched today and is in public beta. You can try out the basic service and send and recieve large files for free. See their blog for more info.

We are excited and look forward to helping Aruna Labs roll out more services and to build out their product portforlio.
