Why two versions?

Any chance we can change the mac theme? :P

(Note: i've only looked at the online demo, so if it's possible to change the theme in the free version then disregard this comment! :))

They are the same versions. The links go to two different localized distributors for better localized support and attention :)

looks interesting, I'll give it a go when I get some free time to set it up

Will give it a go too..

Ok... question for you..

What would I be looking at if I wanted to install this for a set of schools given that I'm a third party self-employed tech? Would I still be covered by the license or would I need to pay something?

Also, are schools going to be expected to pay in the future? If so, when?

Cheers...

This free 1 Tech lite edition allows you to support as many clients as you need as long as you only require 1 Technician to support them. So you can use this across any number of schools!

You only pay for the software if you need more than 1 Tech, and even then the pricing is very reasonable. There are two editions - Lite and Pro depending on what feature set you need. This free edition uses the Lite functionality.

As for Schools buying the Lite/Pro software, if they require more than 1 Tech there are some great educational discounts available!

I've just downloaded and installed this. It says 30 days remaining in trial period at the login screen. I downloaded from the page the registration sends you. What gives?

When i log in, at the top of the screen is lite and pro with 30 days remaining in trial period next to them. What do i do now? Is it going to expire. I have looked for the free download but cannot find it anywhere on your site. I followed the link in the first post and then clicked on the big FREE image on your site.

You will receive a non-expiring license key for the free edition typically within a business day or two via the email address you submitted. Once inputted into the help desk software, the 30 day bit and Pro to Lite switch will be sorted. :)

Will have a look thanks

Playing with this now - looking good..
In fact it looks cleaner and more indepth than our current system..
