PowerShell Plus 1.0 Soft Launch.
Our 3rd generation PowerShell Host and Development Environment - PowerShell Plus has reached 1.0! We are doing away with the pretense of RC1, RTM etc when its not like we are releasing anything to a manufacturer to print a million CDs as we simply just release it to our web site.
The difference between our beta and 1.0 release is our commitment to our customers. We have disabled the auto-updating functionality because we only want to push out builds that have been widely tested to customers - however for those who like to live on the edge of innovation , we will continue to give access to our latest builds. In the future also we will update our auto-updating technology to allow you to choose to update to either trusted official releases, and latest builds.
Another difference in 1.0 is now we also have a MSI installer for those inclined. We are careful however not to ostracize those of you, like us, who value a portable application that doesn't have to have an installer and that can be run from a thumb drive if desired. Thus PowerShell Plus 1.0 has both a portable zip, and a MSI installer.
We are discontinuing selling the PowerShell Suite, but licenses for PowerShell Analyzer and the PowerShell Suite automatically work with PowerShell Plus, and PowerShell Analyzer will continue to be available to all customers as we continue to migrate important features over to PowerShell Plus 1.1
New Price
