I'm thinking about upgrading to 2022 from 2019 before I get really busy in November, but don't want to do it until the service pack is out. Had a quick look on the forum but couldn't see anything, so I assume it hasn't happened yet. Can anyone confirm, and does anybody know when it's slated to emerge?
As always, any additional views on whether or not the upgrade is worth it are welcome.
TIA
Dan

| 2022 OK, 30% discount | Sep 7, 2022 |
Hi Dan
2022 is actually pretty stable, works fine, not much different to 2017.
RWS is offering a 30% discount on upgrades at the moment.

RWS: It's not going to be this year
*Update: probably they mean a new version (upgrade) rather than a service release, but actually SR2 is sort of a new program and it is installed by upgrading too.

I downloaded the trial version of 2022, updated it, and used it yesterday or the day before (I have kept 2019 in place). It actually managed to convert and open a thumping great Word file that 2019 had balked at, so that's a win. Otherwise, very little seems to have changed, at least of the bits I use.
When you look at what Igor has accomplished with CafeTran on his own, you do wonder what the hell the Trados developers have been doing for the past five years.

And today it has thrown a "This method/property must be called on the UI thread". Non-fatal, fortunately. I knew upgrading wouldn't be that simple, but I let hope triumph over experience...

Two months after my previous post and I find that I still haven't upgraded to 2022. Just not really seeing the improvement over 2019. It's not expensive, but £150 (if that is what it is?) is still £150 I could spend on other stuff, even on upgrading other software.
EDIT: I've just checked and the RWS website tells me that it's actually £409 to upgrade from 2019 Freelance Plus to 2022 Freelance if I'm prepared to drop the "plus" part of the license, and a whopping £633 to upgrade...

That's actually more expensive than recent ProZ.com group buys, if I'm not mistaken.
That settles it. I'll just use 2019 until it is no longer possible to do so. I have the desktop installers carefully stored on my system, so I can probably reinstall on a new PC and get another three years out of 2019.
Funnily enough, 2019 is what my clients seem to be using and with every year that passes they use Phrase (Memsource) more and Trados less. If this trend continues then by 2026 I'll probably have so few Trados jobs that I can make do with Cafe Tran or something.
Well-played, SDL/RWS.
