Anyone upgraded from FeatureCAM 2016 to Autodesk's FeatureCAM 2017 yet? If so how do you like it. Anything to watch out for? I heard from my sales rep that a dongle and .paf file are no longer needed. Any issues having both versions installed on the same computer?

Thanks in advance! :cheers:

I've done it, dongle version no longer works for me when both are installed on same pc. I've had no issues with it though.

I'm too scared!

I need to though.
I have solids rolling in that I cant open because I am behind, and asking for other formats is probably annoying customers.

Although, I plan to grab a couple 64bit PC's and load 2016 on them, and lock up my dongle/.PAF just in case!

Anything new/different worth mentioning? (besides no dongle required)
Are you still perpetual? Or subscription?

I have perpetual for the standard and sub for premium. Lol not that I can remember now... I upgraded the day it went live and haven't noticed much of a change other than the machine that just had mill now has lathe lol. But honestly haven't been using it too much lately.
