I would like to wish everyone a happy holidays and a lot of quality time with your friends and loved ones.

To help out a bunch of people transitioning now from GWizard to HSMAdvisor, this year's Thanksgiving sale has been extended and will run for at least a month into the new year. Or until I see the volume of the new customer return to the regular numbers.

Please make sure to contact me if you have any questions or suggestions.

Happy holidays!

There have been some improvements in the purchasing system that I think our users will find VERY useful.

From now on here is how you can upgrade your HSMAdvisor license:

1. Adding More Seats to Existing License (OLD)
   As before you can add more seats to an existing license.

2. Upgrade from 1 and 3 HP Licenses (NEW)
   If you're currently using a 1 HP or 3 HP license you can upgrade to either the Unlimted Floating or Unlimited Permanent license.

3. Transitioning from Cancelled or Active Subscription (NEW)
   You can now switch from a subscription-based model to any other license type.
   Your current subscription will be canceled (if it isn't canceled already) and a new license will be sent to you.

In all cases, you will only have to pay the difference between the new and the existing license.

The minimum upgrade fee is USD 10

Please read more about the upgrade process here: HSMAdvisor License Upgrades

Cheers!
