The purpose of the Beta Test Programme is to check the new version of the software for possible bugs or usability issues ahead of the release. From the Tester's perspective, you gain early access to the new software, which can help you get a head start in offering the latest design/assessment services and an opportunity to help shape the direction of the software.

A summary of the v7.3 features and improvements available for testing can be downloaded from here.

1. Eligibility

Only existing DesignBuilder v7 customers are eligible to access the beta test software. This is to ensure that testers are able to provide useful feedback based on their experience of the software. 

2. Beta Tester Commitments

    1. Where you find a problem or a bug in the software you will report it with the any necessary supporting information to the DesignBuilder support desk.
    2. Respond to Beta Test questionnaires and/or other surveys that will be requested from time to time. We will ask you about the tests you have carried out and in particular about the extent to which each specific change to the software and more general area of the program have already been tested.
  2. You acknowledge the risks involved in using Beta Test software and will make frequent backups to minimise the risk of losing data in any important work undertaken using Beta Test Software.
  3. You acknowledge that any models saved using the new software will not generally read into previous versions of the software.
