Plex 2E

  • 1.  Versions of MS Visual Studio for 7.2.1

    Posted Nov 25, 2016 03:18 PM
    My company cannot provide me with a fully lisenced copy of MS Visual Studio 2013 Professional Upd 5. I have been using a trial version up until now.  My 'free' options are MS Visual Studio 2013 Premier (I assume I can download the relevant Upd 5) OR MS Visual Studio Professional 2015 (again I'm sure I can down load an Upd).  I know that CA Plex has beenn certified to work with 2013 Professional but which of these options would you take in my situation.  If neither, I will have to buy a version of 2013 Prefessional - from my own pocket. Has anyone got any light they can shed on this?  Best regards,  Mark
