Apex 7

ACI states Apex 7 is not supported , What the ****

A couple of years ago I had to upgrade to 7. I basically said, WTF. Its not any better than Apex 1 or 2 or 3. Windows 10, isn't better than 3.1, or 7, but Microsoft and Bill Gates have a monopoly and can reach into your pocket and "make" you give it to them.

I still don't know why they haven't done it yet, but we know it works and I am told the only reason we don't just show people how is out of respect to our long term relationship with ACI.

If I had to choose between respect for another software provider and providing assistance to the people that actually buy and use my software, I know what I'd do. Just sayin.

Appraisers or Microsoft?....

Guess who wins 100% of the time?

Every single one of us would choose Microsoft....

That be a no brainer....

Fritz - Thanks for your input. I believe ACI has a license to distribute Apex, so we don't try to sell it to their users. We give them the API tools to integrate Apex into their software but we cannot force them to use or support the latest version. I really do not know WHY they have not implemented it yet, but I do try to honor our contracts.
[Edit] Nevertheless, I will ask some pointed questions on Monday and I hope to see a resolution in the works soon!

ucbruin - I don't understand your comment - how did Microsoft get into this topic? Let me know what you're trying to say, please. Thanks!

1. Post #2 mentioned Windows 10....
2. I reread post #2 and found I misread it....
3. I'm implying that if I had to make the decision for Apex between appraisers or ACI, I would choose ACI, for the reason you shared....

Thanks, for your feedback ucbruin!
FWIW, I'm not really happy that, for whatever reason, ACI has not implemented Av7, so I intend to review their license agreements in that regard :-\
I was raised in the fee appraisal business since a child, and I remain committed to supporting fee appraisers, as as far as I am concerned, as long as I own the company, I will continue to support fee appraisers and if any "dealer" is not going to do that, then I'll insert my owner prerogative a time of renewal of their license if it means better service for our customers! I've already emailed my COO to have a meeting to review the situation in that regard!

Hope this helps!
