Help us improve Live Mesh!

Live Mesh Team — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 00:14:00 GMT

The Live Mesh team is constantly seeking feedback from our customers to help improve Live Mesh. Today we do this primarily through our forums, our blog, and Microsoft Connect, but there are other, often more useful, ways to collect feedback about Live Mesh.

Would you like to help improve the Live Mesh experience? Below are two ways that you can help.

Complete a survey

We now have an online Customer Satisfaction Survey. Please take a few minutes to let us know how your Live Mesh experience has been.

Enable anonymous data collection

Live Mesh also has a tool that anonymously collects usage data on how the software is (or isn’t) working on customers’ devices. With this tool, we can monitor a variety of data points—such as the frequency of errors, typical network settings, and the reliability of sync—and then aggregate the results to get a picture of how Live Mesh is performing for customers who choose to participate. Learn more about this tool.

This tool is disabled by default because it sends some data about your devices to Microsoft, but you can help us continue to improve Live Mesh by enabling the tool.

To enable this tool, click the Live Mesh icon in the notification area of your Windows taskbar and click your user name. Then click Options, select the checkbox next to “Help us improve Live Mesh…,” and click OK.

Thank you for being one of the first to use Live Mesh. We’re working hard to create the best experience possible, and your help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
