OW2 and the ReachOut project are fostering developers and business users to evaluate
a dozen innovative software and provide their feedback until 30 November 2021.
Paris, November 9, 2021 - OW2, the international community dedicated to the development and promotion of open source software for enterprise information systems, invites beta testers to explore innovative new software at the ReachOut test{fest} on OSXP booth #C16c and, at their convenience, until the end of November 2021.
In return for their efforts, they will be able to interact with software designers and receive monetary rewards of €30, €60 or €90 per evaluation, a Software Ranger certificate, a nomination to the ReachOut Hall of Fame. One of them will receive a ReachOut Special Award on Tuesday 14 December 2021 at 16:00, during a ReachOut webinar.
To enter the ReachOut test{fest} competition, which runs until 30 November 2021, testers should follow the instructions provided on the competition page: https://l.ow2.org/testfest
The profile of the participants and the system requirements vary according to the test campaigns offered, from a simple smartphone user to an advanced developer. Anyone with a keen interest in digital innovation can take part; they simply need to follow the steps proposed online and then fill in an evaluation form about the user experience, the features in place, missing functions or difficulties encountered.
After November 30, 2021, the ReachOut test{fest} competition will be over, but testers will still be able to participate in active campaigns, interact with the designers, and contribute to the evolution of open source software. Moreover, OW2 members will be able to use the ReachOut platform to expose their latest beta releases and gather valuable user feedback.
