Thanks for all the feedbacks on 3.0 Beta from our customers during the past month. The official version — SourceAnywhere Standalone 3.0 was established today. Congratulations! 
Maintaining all the welcomed source control features in SourceAnywhere, such us fast remote access, IDE integrations, cross-platform, etc., we would like to make sure that every feature added to the product is based on sound decisions. Our customers’ participations help us make the process much easier. Since the release of 3.0 Beta, many customers downloaded the trial version and gave their valuable feedbacks as to the new features, including email notification, multi-database storage, Shelve/Unshelve, etc. One of our customers said in his email:
The checkout folder information and operations of trying to checkin from a different location and so on seem to work well, from a quick experiment. The Status column is very welcome – it just helps give a warm feeling you know what’s going on. The link to the working folder is a nice touch.
Tell me how you think about SourceAnywhere in this post, or email me at kgao@dynamsoft.com. Any comments will be appreciated. To evaluate the new version of SourceAnywhere Standalone, you can download the fully functional trial version here: SourceAnywhere Standalone 3.0

Thanks to our team’s hard working, we’ve just released an amazing upgrade for SourceAnywhere Standalone – Version 3.0 Beta.
With Microsoft set to wind down support for Visual SourceSafe, many VSS users turn to SourceAnywhere for its impressive source control performance for distributed teams, embedded VSS Import Tool, familiar user interface, etc.
SourceAnywhere 2.x was proved to be stable and fast during its long existence. Based on 2.x, our developers applied ZIP compression technique, optimized caching mechanism, etc. to further boost the performance. In addition, as per our customers’ requests, many fantastic features are added to this major upgrade. I’m glad to share some of the improvements with you here.
- Multi-databases storage. It breaks through the maximum capacity limitation of free SQL Server Express. Meanwhile it makes the individual repository backup possible.
- Email Notification System. If you would like to get a notification of source control operations, like Check-out, Check-in and Label, done by your team members, you will find this feature very useful.
- Shelve/Unshelve. It allows you to save local changes to the repository without meddling with the server copy.
- File Status. The following five file statuses are supported: Normal, Missing, Old, Modified, and Unknown.
- Pending Checkin. Pending Checkins window is added. You can track the computer name where checkout happened in it.
Supporting integration with multi-IDEs, such as Visual Studio, Eclipse, Dreamweaver, etc., makes SourceAnywhere competitive in the source control market. In the new version, we introduced Add-in technology to perfect the integration with Visual Studio and enhance the speed at the same time.
Besides all the above mentioned improvements on the “technical” aspect, you may notice that version 3.0 Beta is much more “considerate” and user friendly compared to previous versions. Check out the user experience improvements.
Try the 30 days’ free trial of SourceAnywhere Standalone 3.0 Beta now. The production version of SourceAnywhere 3.0 will be available soon. Stay tuned.

I’m pleased to announce that version 6.1 of SourceAnywhere for VSS, the fastest Visual SourceSafe (VSS) internet access solution recommended by Microsoft, is released today.
In this “minor” release, old customers of SourceAnywhere for VSS will find a great improvement on transmission performance. By applying compression technique on the network layer, the performance of source control operations, such as Add, Get, Check In and Check Out, is increased by 5% – 40%. For operations like Show History and Refresh, the improvement is extremely obvious – 40% at least!
If you would like to try it out by yourself, 30-day fully functional free trial is available for you.
The release of SourceAnywhere 3.0 is also on its way. Stay tuned.
