One thing I think that would be helpful is if you offered paid "updates". Something like a XX dollar charge for centroid to take a report from an older system, and send you back a working report for the latest offering. The tech's should be really quick at it, and lots of people don't want to ...

Re: Centroid CNC Software Licensing Upgrade Announcement
I think this change is long overdue. There is no other company that I am aware of that has offered the support that Centroid has offered.

Re: Centroid CNC Software Licensing Upgrade Announcement

Acorn is only 4 axis open loop.
Maybe for this reason the software is also cheaper ;)
