Greetings,
I would like to announce release of Microstock Analytics 1.3.

New version comes with new pricing. Now it looks following:

Basic 500 files (500 files analytics) - free.
Pro 1000 (1000 files analytics) - $9.99/3 months or $29.99/year.
Pro 2000 (2000 files analytics) - $19.99/3 months or $59.99/year.
Unlimited analytics - $39.99/3 months or $119.99/year.
Unlimited Owned License - $299.99 One Time Fee.

All existing paid accounts were upgraded and extended depending on remaining balance.
Pro 1500 accounts were upgraded to Pro 2000.
Pro 3000 accounts were upgraded to Unlimited.

New version is optimized a lot for big portfolios - increased speed of rendering thumbnails, database loading and stats fetching. Graph updates are up to 40x faster.
Image matchmaking algorithm become much more precise. It can detect same files on different sites much better. And there is a possibility to manually join and split files.

New features:

First of all it is search function. Is allows you to search for files in big portfolio using keywords, titles and descriptions. Also there is filter by upload month which helps to narrow search results even further. It makes file set (collection) creation pain free even for huge portfolios.

The second is export to CSV format. It is possible to export stats per file of per day. Totals earnings and downloads for all agencies as well as per agency data. It is possible to filter by fileset and or export stats for selected files.

The third is keyword analysis. This allows you to see complete list of keywords. Soft keywords by revenue, by RPI or file count. Display monthly/weekly/daily earnings per keyword as well as all other stats.

The last one is filesets/collections sorting. Sort by file count, ROI, RPI, Total Revenue or arrange in Custom Order.

i think some video sales are messing with things...

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #3 on:** June 27, 2011, 01:23 »

Tyler, thanks for trying out new version. Errors are related to referred earnings on Shutterstock. I will work to fix that. Apart from that most of the features should work.
What do you mean by "video sales are messing with things"?

Today released new version of Microstock Analytics. There is new feature that allows you to compare several filesets on one graph. Simply select few filesets using ctrl key and see graph below. Hope you enjoy this feature.

New features in previous build:
1. Search by negative keyword. Use "not" before keyword to exclude files from search. For example "business not isolated" will search for all files containing business keyword but not isolated.
2. Filter to display only unassigned files during fileset creation/modification.
3. Yearly view mode (for the bottom graph).

When can we expect support for 123rf? Their earnings are (at least in my case) surpassing both FT and DT and it would me nice to have support for them.

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #7 on:** August 04, 2011, 17:05 »

I already started working on 123RF support. Would expect to finish in couple of weeks.

There is currently an issue with iStock login - I'm working on it. Other sites should work fine

Is fixed ? Why can I change my agency account ID... I try to remove this software and re-install, but the data still there!!!! no confidence using this software again...

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #13 on:** September 09, 2011, 02:43 »

Still working on it. Software is using agency account IDs to identify that account is used by the same user. Otherwise it would be possible to use same account by unlimites number of users

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #14 on:** September 15, 2011, 16:26 »

The issue with iStock stats update has been fixed in Microstock Analytics 1.4.9 release.
Please update using following link:
www.microstockanalytics.com/MicrostockAnalyticsSetup1.4.exe

New version will force full update from iStock. This may take up to one hour depending on size of portfolio, but will happen only during first update.

2 Year Revenue Estimate for all files no working.

can you also do a force full update for fotolia or give us a button to do it?

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #17 on:** September 16, 2011, 02:24 »

CoisaX, Revenue estimates cannot be calculated if you have files newerthen 7 days in your selection.

Tyler, yes, I will make force all button for each site in next release and also checkbox where you can select which agencies you want to update. Just wanted to release iStock fix faster, so this feature didn't made it in release.

leaf · « **Reply #18 on:** September 16, 2011, 19:50 »

sounds good, thanks

fotostorm · « **Reply #19 on:** September 27, 2011, 02:28 »

Hi,
I am planning to buy your software (Unlimited analytics) and have few questions.
1. When will you release new version where I can force full update of portfolio or some files with changed keywords?
2. Estimated Revenue/Month doesn't show any data for iStockphoto now, so will it be included in new version?

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #20 on:** September 27, 2011, 07:29 »

Hi Slobodan,
Thanks for purchasing Unlimited version.
1. Planning to release update today where it is possible to force update for specific site.
2. Estimated Revenue/Month will not be included in this new version. I'm still trying to figure out way to calculate estimates for this. If you any suggestions/ideas how to estimate revenue based iStock sales I appreciate if you share them.

fotostorm · « **Reply #21 on:** September 27, 2011, 12:58 »

It is very useful software. Ok, let's get to the problems I have found during this time I have a full version.
- My portfolio at this time count 2352 online active files (I am not counting pending files) but MA telling me that there is only 2312
- Double click on All Files returns some error: value cannot be null.....
- Sometimes after updating stats my categories just disappear and I have to restart the software to bring them back
- I would like that setting I made during one session stay for another time I start the MA. For example bar charts and show numbers.
- For now I have only 3 audio files and they are all under one thumbnail is it possible to every file has it's own thumb?
- Today I sent an error report from MA as you already know and those errors appear every time I update stats.

Right now I don't have any idea how you could calculate estimates, sorry.

fotostorm · « **Reply #22 on:** September 27, 2011, 13:02 »

I forgot to mention that Getty sales are not counted into statistics, do you plan to implement that too?
When I look at the weekly revenue graph some numbers overlap others, is there any chance to make numbers smaller or at least vertical?

Andrey Popov · « **Reply #23 on:** September 28, 2011, 06:28 »

Thanks for your feedback and error reports.
- The reason you see less files is because MA combined some files into groups. You can see this if you sort by duplicate count and double click on a file - it will show list of files in the group.
- Double click on "All Files" has been fixed.
- What do you mean categories disappear? Do you mean filesets?
- Yes, settings saving would really nice addition. Added this on my list.
- Good point about audio files. Will change that in next version.
- Thanks for error report. IS changed the way how they display Getty sales. I will be fixing this in next version.
