    Default Upgrade to ProX

    Over the years I've had a few problems with P&LD and WDP - functions that don't exist in either or both, but do exist in Designer Pro X.
    I know this is subjective, but would $99 be worth it? And is the dreaded update service the same - updates for 1 year and then no more.
    I know I can download a keep a copy of the Designs Gallery.
    Are there any other worthwhile advantages of Pro X I'm not aware of?
    Thanks in advance.

    Info Re: Upgrade to ProX

    LGF, for an annual Subscription of $101.70 (using the LIFETIME voucher), you get Xara Pro+ and Xara Cloud+.

    No Magix. You don't get to keep Pro+ after the end of your Subscription so at that point if you do not re-subscribe, use your $99 to buy back into Magix.
    Keep your current Xara applications installed; they can still be quite useful.

    Upgrade to Designer Pro+ Now

    LIFETIME 50% discount

    Get it now at a 50% discount AND lock in this discount for your future renewals. Use the discount code LIFETIME.
    Download Xara Designer Pro+ for free to get started. Xara Cloud is included.

    LGF, appreciate that but I think Xara Pro+ is better. It depends on what you need it for but I found Magix's lack of support and lock-outs beyond the pale.

    I have written lot of Posts on this subject but you'll have to Search TG to locate them.

    If you can handle the magix nag screen then go for it. They even nag you after you upgraded to upgrade again LOL wtf. Does the + also nag the ass out of users?
