Hi All,
 
I have been using Sonar for many years and enjoying it..........mostly 
With each new package I bought I had problems with installation. Some minor, some more problematic.
I held off buying Platinum partially because of that, and partially because I did not want to be installing updates frequently, but when free lifetime updates were offered the marketing worked on me.
 
What has really made me happy is Command Center. My Platinum installation was painless and everything works. No missing dlls, no folders in the wrong place, etc. I presume the update process will be just as seamless. Command Center is a great addition to Sonar!!

CCC is the new install method from now on.

Great news - and the 2016 installers are just as seamless if you run them manually.

Congratulations on becoming a lifer, welcome to the Cell Block !!  LOL

You chose wisely.  BTW, you don't have to take every update.  You are in full control of when you apply updates and updates are cumulative, so you don't miss anything by waiting or skipping the in-between versions.
