Thoughts, tips, and updates on screen-scraping
Well, it’s now official. It’s been just over a full year in development, and we’re now happy to release it to the world. Thanks to all who have helped in testing alpha versions and provided feedback.
In order to upgrade an existing instance, you’ll need to un-install and re-install. Take a look at this FAQ for details as to the whys and wherefores.
We’re anticipating releasing version 4.0 of screen-scraper quite soon. Perhaps as soon as this week. There will be quite a few changes that come along with this. Aside from the usual new features and bug fixes, we’ll be adding a new edition–screen-scraper Enterprise Edition. Essentially what is now the latest pre-release version of screen-scraper Professional Edition will become screen-scraper Enterprise Edition. The new screen-scraper Professional Edition will simply be the Enterprise Edition with a number of features stripped out. Additionally, those who license the Enterprise Edition will get phone support, as well as a few other non-tangibles.
Along with all of this there will be a pricing change. The Professional Edition will be available for $399 USD, and the Enterprise Edition will cost $2,499. Those who licensed screen-scraper Professional Edition before the release of the Enterprise Edition will be eligible for a free upgrade to it (though they will not get the phone support that subsequent licensees will get). In the interest of fairness, I thought it would be a good idea to point this out prior to the release of 4.0. Those considering licensing screen-scraper Professional Edition right now might want to consider it a bit more seriously, given the price increase that will take place with the new version. As always, don’t hesitate to drop us a line with any questions.
