I just saw that Axosoft is running a special discount for their project management/bug tracking/help desk software. The 5 user edition of OnTime normally costs $495 and is available for just $5 until Friday. I thought this might be of interest to some of you in case you are not already using such tools.
(I haven’t used OnTime yet and I’m not associated with them in any way, but getting something like this for just $5 is rare.)

Interesting excerpt from their website:
“Axosoft is conducting a social marketing experiment. We are giving away 5-User copies of OnTime 2006 Small Team Edition, a product we sell for $495 for just $5 ($1 per user!) . This offer is just available through social marketing sites and there are no links to this page on the Axosoft web site”
I was going to pick it up and check it out, read that, lost interest in less than a minute…
If you would have read just a little bit further:
100% of Proceeds Will be Donated to American Red Cross
We’re not doing this experiment to make money from selling our software at a 99% discount. Therefore, we will take the $5 fee of each sale and donate it to the American Red Cross to help the victims of the Mudslides in the Philippines and other recent disasters.
Their so called “social marketing experiment” was just a way to get more people interested in their software and get many blogs etc to link to their site. The software looks great and is a good deal for just $5 so it’s a win-win situation for them and for the new customers in my opinion.
We ordered a copy ourselves when we saw the offer even though we are already using another project management tool (trac). Who knows, it might come handy in the future.
