SOLISTA – a personal edition of OTM


We are developing a personal edition of OTM, designed especially for individual freelance service providers. The new software is called OTM SOLISTA and is designed to reduce daily administrative burdens and support the success of your business.

LSP.net hopes to develop a tool which is best suited to your actual needs. Therefore we would be very grateful if you could take a few minutes (we estimate about 5 minutes) to answer some questions about your daily professional routine. The responses to this survey are anonymous.

LINK TO THE SURVEY: http://lsp.net/en-otm-solista.html

SOLISTA will be offered for a monthly fee of €9.99. The software runs on a web browser and provides the following benefits:
  • 50% less administrative effort due to the integration of scheduling, project management, accounting and more
  • Use of analyses from CAT tools to help prepare quotations and invoices
  • Quotations and invoices in 34 currencies (at ECB exchange rates)
  • Multilingual communication with clients and colleagues
  • Effective online marketing for your business
  • Secure data transfeand backup on our servers in Germany (not in the Cloud!)
All this together means best business practices and data security for you and your clientele.

We thank you for your interest and participation in the survey.

"Poodle" vulnerability fixed


When Google researchers published their "Poodle" vulnerability report on October 14th, LSP.net took immediate action by fixing this security issue on OTM servers. OpenSSL has been upgraded to version 1.0.1j and the OTM webservers now deny connections via the deprecated SSLv3 protocol. As a consequence, Windows XP users surfing with the ancient Internet Explorer 6 are no longer able to connect to OTM resource and client interfaces.
