2024 is out now, I downloaded it as a part of my annual ridiculously priced plan.
Please read the following before deciding to "upgrade" from 2019!!!
Be careful anyone using 2019. I got suckered in to this my self when they had an obvious bug in 2019 and support told me if I upgrade to 2022 that should fix it. So I did, after paying for that upgrade. I hadn't planned to upgrade so soon as I normally waited a number of years between upgrades unless there is a feature I just have to have. So 2023 rolls around and I get messages about having to upgrade to 2023. I admit I didn't read them that carefully since I didn't intend to upgrade again. I missed the fact that as of 2022 version, if you don't pay, it's not that you just don't get support and new features, but they lock out your files and you no longer have access to any of your data. Of course, there is no way to go backwards in versions after your file is updated. So, now they have you stuck paying them very high rates every year. Very slimy biz practice. I looked at alternatives, I was so mad at them, but sadly I didn't find anything that wasn't more expensive or didn't download many of the institutions records I use, which would make for a lot of wasted time on my part. It sucks but that is where it is.
I can't say whether you should upgrade from 2019 or not, I just wanted to make sure folks knew the consequences before they did.
