I think the real draw to abydos was the designer product for BMC. It will help increase the adoption of SRM into organizations.

Designer works great for those people that use it in the right way, but Analyser has become almost indispensible. There are things that Analyser does that Dev Studio does not do. Analyser is a great tool – it would be a pity to see it disappear without a trace.

Upcharge typically refers to an extra charge that is in addition to the standard price of the product or service that you bought. In this case, it is tentatively expected that there will be no additional cost beyond the costs associated with the purchase of the ITSM Suite offering itself. It isn’t “free”, though - i.e. it is expected that you will not be able to download it without purchasing or migrating to the latest version of the ITSM Suite under the Suite pricing model. -David J.
