v4.20.01 Changes
August 21, 2018๐ Improved performance and reducing used memory by application
๐ New version of GrandNode comes with the reduced used memory by application. As you may noticed, after .NET Core implementation, application consumed a very large amount of memory, inadequate to the actual consumption. After analysis, we found an effective solution to the problem. The implemented changes have reduced the amount of used memory to ~ 200mb, which means more than 50% reductions in the resources used. From the point of view of our users and programmers, due to reducing the memory used, the cost of maintaining the application on the server will drop significantly.

v4.10 Changes
March 14, 2018Reservation System
GrandNode works perfect for businesses that accept bookings in daily, nightly or hourly allotments. We've created a powerful reservation system, which can be used successfully in industries like:
๐ Tours - Sightseeing sessions
Activities - Adventure trips
Rentals - Equipment or transport

If your customer is looking for the complete e-commerce sofware with booking system, here is the solution!

๐ฆ Bundled products are the latest product management change in GrandNode 4.10. We've created a product type "Bundled" for product bundled packs.
