Should I upgrade?

[jacobitejake]

Hi All

I'm a steady user of version 12 and I'm being given the option, with a saving, to upgrade to version 15, the question is, should I? Do I really need any of the additional features?

Many thanks

Kind regards

David, I probably would. I have reservations about the value that v15 currently has in its current state but it allows you a year's access the the Update Service and you can use either v12, v15 or both with access to the on-line services that without, v12/v15 is crippled.

Thanks Acorn, I currently don't use any of the online services, so my version 12 is working fine, am I missing out on online services, I've never used them

Te On-line content catalogue? for shape designs, NavBars, buttons, Smart Shapes and site templates. All dust after the Update Service expires.

The on-line content catalog has clip art, stock photos and illustrations, smart shapes, print as well as web templates, and other things you may or may not need.

If all you use are the features you currently have, then to be honest, I don't see a lot of advantage in upgrading.

Hi Acorn

What! I'm sure I was led to believe that those components wouldn't disappear after the year, only access to the new things they have added throughout the year. I was told that by purchasing a dvd backup, which I did, I would then have a physical copy of the resources you mention and could easily re install v12 after the year even if I didn't continue with the subscription/update service. So, what you are saying is that I don't actually own a fully working copy of the programme, I'm actually renting it for one year, unless I pay each year of course. Surely this can't be right?!&*?
