Perforce 2004.1 Is Now Shipping

Perforce Software today began shipping version 2004.1 of its software configuration management product, designed to support collaboration of coding by both small and large teams of programmers. Many of the enhancements to Perforce 2004.1 are focused on providing better methods of visualizing changes that are made to the source and its structure. The revision graph features a chart that clearly indicates the relationship of revisions to the various code streams, and a visual diff system for both folders and files that uses color to clearly indicate where changes, insertions, and deletions have been made. Perforce Visual Client is the main user interface, and is available as a native client for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux systems. Pricing for Perforce 2004.1 is $750 per seat up to 20 (with several discounts based on volume, with a floor of $450 for 1,001 or more seats), and the pricing includes one year of support and maintenance ($150 per year, per seat thereafter).
