Allow me to introduce you to Arnie

As I have mentioned before, Shockey Monkey Pro is going away, as is Shockey Monkey Free and Fro. With Shockey Monkey just over a year old, we’re stepping up our game – as a matter of fact today we got our GFI Max integration figured out. But more about that later, allow me to introduce you to Arnie:

Arnie is a Windows desktop application (“fat client”) for Shockey Monkey.

You can download the beta here.

What? It’s a fat client giving you fast access to your tickets, contacts and companies.

Why? We got a lot of users that were used to and wanted a fast desktop application where they could open a ton of tickets and work without the distractions of a web browser.

How much? Free.

Now, this is not a beast of an application that is going to take a lot of horsepower or replace the ShockeyMonkey web portal – and that’s the point. It’s fast, it’s easy, it’s local and it’s meant for the folks that need to close tickets down fast. (You doomed, doomed sons of bitches. Quit now while you’re ahead and go to ITT or DeVry and learn how to do something…anything but tickets.)

Download it. Use it. Remember it’s broken beta so if you find something that’s not working please log the bug at https://support.ownwebnow.com under Development > Bugs.

P.S. That’s not really the name; It’s just us paying homage to the pioneer of the SMB PSA’s who helped me figure out the strategy behind the next Shockey Monkey.
