DC v Pro

Hi there
We have literally just started working with Pro and are still getting our heads around the various backup methods etc.

Should we stop this work and concentrate on the DC version?

Will their be a discount for Pro users upgrading?

Re: DC v Pro

Yes, there will be a discount equivalent to what you paid for your Pro version. You are right the DC version simplifies things a lot as it only has two methods: --backup and --replica.

We are taking the time to test it in the multiple combinations that ESXi can generate since v 5.1.0 although as it mainly relies on GLibC that makes it more stable, it still relies on the underlying ESXi folder and descriptor files structure.

We should be able to launch by middle August.

Do you have a new estimated time frame?

Re: DC v Pro

We have delayed launch date mainly case we have become more ambitious and we are adding more features. It won't take long anyway.
