After purchasing Expandrive and then discovering that it isn't compatible with Amazon AWS's IAM credentialing due to a bug, I'm reticent to try yet another product from these guys. Their response when I reported the bug and asked when it would be fixed: "Not yet, sorry! About to release a new product, things are very hectic. We'll have it fixed soon though." That was October and I suppose this is the new product that was holding up the bug fix.

That was fixed a month or two ago, run the auto updater! :) If it fails for you, there must be some other issue, ping us again if that is the case.

I've been using ExpanDrive since version 2, and I've been reasonably pleased with customer service and the pace of bug fixes/improvements (and ExpanDrive 3 is a huge improvement over 2, at least on Windows). It's a very small shop, so I can see how trying to ship two products at once would cause them problems in how much they can support either.

I really wish the documentation on the site gave a better idea of why I'd want to use this instead of/along with ExpanDrive, though.
