I totally agree that as a business entity PROFIT is crucial to not only just mere survival but to future developments that will keep a company in a firm position among competitors, of that theres no argument of course.

Also the comparisons are distinctly wide but they must have at some point in the beginning taken that into consideration. Why else would they even bother to market a workstation in the first place?

And thats where i run into a grey area of disbelief, especially after a product is proven itself reliable enough to attract such a large dedicated following of customer support to it's vendor & product.

Theres also another consideration worthy of attention in all this. If the workstation is at such odds with the company's expectations compared to server versions, it's but a small matter for them to up the retail cost at some satisfactory number for them that would help justify keeping it alive. In fact you'll note that most successful vendors accommadate BOTH sides of this customer base without loss of interest or profitability, hence my reference to re-reviewing the marketing strategy instead of just turning attention away from it.

But that's just the nature of some software makers anymore, as an example Lavasoft let Ad-AwareSE which was Xtremely POPULAR for a fairly long run become little regarded and focused attention instead more into the Corporate arena and large license sales. I dunno, maybe it really is in their best interest to stay to a strictly Corporate/Server environment for customer base and forego any attention for the Home users.

But, wow, what a tease!

 

I think you are stating in your own words the very reasons for which FDISR has been redesigned: Look at how many words you needed to describe what's happening to FDISR, any common user (unlike members at Wilders) would be put off from even trialling it, for its apparent complexity.

These people want to sell their product, and I also feel sorry this is happening as I wouldn't get the new version.

 

True, but there are always users, that prefer a solution with more possibilities and FDISR is a special case, it has no alternatives at this moment and it has no competition. Until now I couldn't find one, the two I found look like RollbackRx and RollbackRx works with point-in-time snapshots, I don't need or want those.
If there were more FDISR's, it wouldn't be a problem, but FDISR is unique.
Let's hope that within 5 years something else appears on the market and it doesn't need to be a second FDISR as long it is similar or better than FDISR.
