Software Bisque Support Corner

I'm advising a local school system to buy a paramount. I have a question.

Is there yet a date that a new paramount purchase will get SKYX pro? Or have a free upgrade for SKYX pro?

It won't be an easy thing to tell the school system they need an upgrade after a major purchase.

I'm sorry if this was asked before, but I couldn't find it.

Thank you,

Software Bisque does not have a scheduled release date for TheSkyX Professional Edition at this time.

• The school will not have to upgrade to TheSkyX Professional Edition.
• TheSkyX Professional Edition is not required to operate the Paramount ME.
• The software suite currently provided with the Paramount ME (TheSky6/CCDsoft, etc.) can control, and will be able to control, the Paramount ME for the forseeable future.

Yes, at some point in the future, TheSky6 Professional Edition will be retired so that Paramount ME customers will have to upgrade their software. The typical life of SB software is about 10 years. Based on this assumption, TheSky6 (released in 2004) has many years before retirement.
