Beta tester, Denis Labrecque wrote: "All I can say is WOW! I'm the former VP of Passport & had quite a bit to do with Encore during its hay day and must say how extraordinarily impressed I am with what [the Gvox team has] done. Kudos to you all!! Not only have you improved Encore, but you have kept the FEEL of the old Encore - a feat that I wasn't sure could be done."
