Robert,

I cannot disagree with you and I do realize that this has nothing to do with
Wi, but after purchasing a license for 25,000+ and then having that company
abandon it less then a year later leaves a bitter taste in your mouth. I
would love to upgrade, but money has been tight. I show that to get the 3
licenses following their upgrade path would cost 3596 per. No where have I
ever seen nor was told I could get all 3 licenses for this price. The Dev
studio would be 599. I see that as 11,387 to upgrade. Now not counting the
licenses purchased way back to the Everyware days, I see the total
investment costing over 36,387. Now you gotta admit, that is a chunk of
change.

My understanding was that the unlimited enterprise/corporate license of
2000/4 was upgraded to 3 professional licenses of Witango. That allows for
robust installations on 3 large scale servers. Granted it won't support a
dozen machines like it used to, but you should still be able to get similar
overall performance considering today's multicore servers.

I would open a discussion with WT and see what is available to you. They
obviously want to sell licenses and do work with people who are scaling up
or down and who are moving up from 2000/4 after all this time. You will have
some option available to you.

That said, you do need to keep in mind that giving your money to Everyware
or Pervasive did nothing to help WT along. They didn't get any of that cash
and what was spent on development of the software seems to have not been
spent wisely. My point is that while you might have a memory of spending
money, WT doesn't have one of getting it.

I do hope that when version 6 is out in both Studio and Server (debugged and
stable) that WT will introduce a great incentive for users of all previous
versions to upgrade. I personally feel that getting out of 3.x,4(2000),4.5
and 5.0 on all platforms would serve all the users, the community and WT
best.

Robert

Tom,

I am in the same boat here. I have the Enterprise with unlimited
registrations too. I have never upgraded because of the cost involved to put
the server on multiple machines. The Enterprise version was a big chunk of
doe at the time Pervasive sold it. I was hoping for a less expensive upgrade
path, but when Pervasive's Tango bit the dust, all bets were off.

Ok... I invested in Pervasive's Tango platform in the Enterprise edition...
unlimited registrations, etc...  And Everyware's Tango before that.

Now I don't need that particular configuration.  I'm currently a small shop
with Witango as my primary platform.

I'm currently at version 4.5.

What advantages would I have if I upgraded to the current version?  

Thanks!!!
