Version 4 Beta released for download
Downloaded version 4.00.818 and the key file for our own SupportSuite licence. Archive contains the desktop app and the usual upload folder containing all the PHP code.
Need to decide how best to evaluate. Ideally need to install as a copy first before applying to our live help-desk. There is an import facility so setting this up shouldn't be an issue but not yet sure how the licence will work as the eval copy would have to reside on a different URL.
Also need to decide whether to use PDO or ADODB. Tempted to try SQL Server as we have 2008 Express with Advanced Services on the server as wells as MySQL.
