Premium Trial vs. Pro - how similar are they?

[AlanD]

I've been using ACT 2010 (version 12) for 5 or 6 years, and it's getting finicky.  This probably has to do with the operating system upgrades over the years.

In any case, I probably need to upgrade to the current version now. 

I'm going to do the trial of ACT Premium, but will this give me a real look at what ACT Pro will be like?  I had a lot of trouble with backwards compatability when I upgraded last time, and want to check for this before upgrading.

By the wya, I'm running Windows 7 on the 2 computers in my business, and I won't be using a cloud-based product..

Most of the differences between premium and Pro are in the user security area. If you're a single user there would be little reason to use the premium version. A premium database is easily changed to Pro using the ACTdiag.

Hi Alan,

I agree with Roy.
You can find a Knowledgebase article that covers the feature differences here: http://kb.act.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/38255
