The Match-IT system has been designed from the outset to evolve and incorporate new ideas and technologies as they become available. The pace of change is such that there may be many new releases each year. Each new release will enhance existing features and add new features. Take-on of these new releases is optional. When you take on a new release, the Match-IT system will transfer all your data from the old release to the new and make any necessary adjustments. This transfer is automatic and is performed the first time you log into the new release.

 

The recommended route to take advantage of these new releases is to join the support scheme. Members of this scheme can receive all new releases as soon as they are available. As a member, you can be actively involved in defining the features of the new releases.

 

You can join and leave the support scheme at any time. However, if you join ‘late’, or re-join after leaving, you must bring yourself up to date by taking on any intervening releases you missed. This is necessary because each new release will build on the features of the previous release.

 

New releases are published on a regular basis on the Match-IT web-site at www.match-it.com. You are free to download these releases at any time, but you will not be able to run them against your existing data unless you are a member of the support scheme. However, you can run them as a fresh install for a limited period for evaluation purposes.
