FREE - Investigation Management Software

They should just approach 10 or 15 companies and ask them to beta test it. They shouldn't need much of a sales pitch for that!

I agree - and that's the more accepted method.

Sometimes (and I'm not saying that's going on here) the ploy is to get future customers "roped in" because once they start using a particular platform - especially a data platform or an operating system - it can be much more expensive and troublesome to change to another one later even if you're not really happy with your "freebie/cheapie".

I have a feeling to get the software, we have to go through the sales pitch at gotomeeting.

I didn't open every single page on the site, but I found nothing about eSolve.

Believe it or not, the odd time a commercial vender develops and releases a product for law enforcement and secuirty professionals that is not cost prohibitive. The people at Trinus Technologies Inc. (www.trinustech.com) have created eSolve – an Investigation management program that is being developed into a Major Case Management program. Trinus is making this software available to investigators at no charge.

So what is the catch. This is even more surprising. There is none! Creating law enforcement computer software is a challenge these days as policing and protective pressures and needs and continually evolving. Trinus is looking to develop a very mature full major case management package. This would include the usual entity management components such as people places and things, but also the ability to record and analyse activities and the investigation of events and objects. Objects of course can become evidence so the need to maintain continuity and produce a judicially worthy package of disclosure for court is a necessity.

In order to create the most mature and robust case management system, Trinus needs the law enforcement communities input. Therefore, those who are given the pre-release product for FREE to try as they wish in a live operational or test environment are welcome to do so with no strings attached. Trinus is looking for volunteers who will prove the product and provide casual feedback on development and enhancement priorities. Once Trinus has compiled the information needed to make it the best system available – then the true hard core creation work continues.

Those who were given the product to begin with get to keep it! Even more incredible, they are invited to join a user community and supplied with regular updates on advanced versions as the development evolves.
