GoldMine Premium Edition 8.5 has been officially released by FrontRange Solutions. This is a very exciting release with many new features. Many of our customers have asked us if and when they should upgrade. We typically take a very conservative approach to upgrades because we realize that you come to rely on GoldMine and we want to be sure that there are not any issues with upgrades that will hurt your current productivity. We have been testing GoldMine 8.5 since October or so and have not found significant issues not already identified and fixed by FrontRange Solutions. However, the tests were always in a demo sessions. We will be going live by end of this week with GoldMine 8.5 on our systems and will be testing them thoroughly. We would be happy to share our results with you as we learn more. In the interim, we would recommend waiting at least one or two weeks to do your internal upgrade.

Our internal upgrade will include testing with the following:

Goldbox
Quoteworks
HEAT Integration
Stonefield
Crystal
GISMO
GISME
Word/Excel Link
