Pricing Changes - 1st July 2023

We have been providing our Pest Control management system in Australia since August 2019. We have continuously improved our product to bring efficiency benefits to your business.

After 3 ½ years of no price increases, our costs have increased by roughly 15%.

We recently conducted a survey to understand preferences by our users as to whether they'd prefer a continued split fee or a flat fee for all staff accounts.

Thanks for all the excellent feedback we conducted about our pricing and the positive support for Mira / Pest Register. The responses were considered and practical.

We received 20 responses and found that almost all people wanted the split pricing approach to be retained rather than a flat fee.

After averaging out all the responses, we ended up with a figure of $41.16 for the first company subscription and $36.62 for all subsequent staff.


​Based on this feedback and after rounding down, our new pricing will be $41 (inc. GST) for the initial subscription, and $36 (inc. GST) for all subsequent staff. The new subscription prices will be introduced at EOFY - 1 July 2023.

Thanks for your continued support and helping us make Mira the best product for small businesses.

  • The Staff dialog will now let you manage and archive licences against each staff member

  • The Staff list now contains a button at the top right "View Staff Activity Logs" which displays account logs for all staff members (previously Company Logs in Settings)

Redesigned File Manager

We've redesigned the File Manager to make it much easier to manage all files created on Mira.

Categories:

  • New design with all categories displayed on the right-hand sidebar

  • Categories can now be edited

  • Categories can now contain a colour and unique icon

  • When deleting a category, you now have the option of deleting all files within that category too

Files:

  • Files can be dragged into a category via the sidebar

  • Files can be right-clicked on desktop with quick actions for downloading, toggling visibility and deleting

  • Added a new "All Files" view which displays all files you have access to

Permissions:

  • A new "Access FIles" permission has been added so that you can give staff members access to the file manager and only files that they've uploaded or files which are available to all staff

  • The existing permission has been renamed to "File Administration" which continues to allow that staff member to access and manage all files within the business

ZIP Import

  • The old "Import Report ZIP" dialog in Settings has been removed and collapsed into a generic "Import ZIP" button under the main file uploader

  • The new ZIP importer is more flexible and allows you to unzip any applicable files directly into a specific category

  • The ZIP uploader is available to any staff who have the "Access Files" permission
