NX Updates

[SRF]

Hi,

I am currently paying for the NX version of Softmaker Office, which I understand receives regular updates.

I'm yet to receive any updates. How often are they released please and is there any information on what the next one will contain?

I realise you don't like telling users anything about future releases (not even the year in which we can expect the next major release!) but it would be nice to have at least some information.

Thanks,


Steve

An update with a huge new feature is coming next week.

[SRF]

Great. Do we get a clue what it might be? Will it help the spreadsheet become more compatible with modern Excel functions?

[martin-k]

That will come later this spring/early summer (XLOOKUP etc.). No, next week's announcement is about a proofing improvement in TextMaker.

[SRF]

Oh! - so we will get the major new version within the next 2-3 months, complete with XLOOKUP and FILTER (etc.)?

[martin-k]

Yes.

[SRF]

Thank you! That means I will continue to pay my monthly subscription, in the hope that the new version will fill some of the gaps vs Excel. Will there be any other improvements to Planmaker, beyond XLOOKUP and FILTER?

[martin-k]

We generally don't preannounce, and I went farther than I usually go. There will be exciting improvements, but it is really too early. Wait for the public beta announcement, then we'll spill the beans.
