tony10000 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I know that Oak Tree won't give us a release date for Accordance 11, but is it still in Alpha or has it been released to beta? Is the beta testing pool open or is it closed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 We are well underway in closed beta testing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony10000 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Will there be an open beta prior to release? And how far away from RC status? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I doubt there will be an open beta, and we don't ever publish our release schedules. But I'm glad you are interested! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony10000 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Just wondering! Thanks for the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Accordance website was down earlier today, so I naturally assumed it was being updated for the launch of version 11. But no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Tony, as far as anything Accordance has said in public communication, the first announcements of Accordance 11 said "late October," FWIW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonathanHuber Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I hope it's on schedule. The sneak peeks look great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony10000 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Well, then, 6 days left if it is on schedule. My guess is that it will be released on Reformation Day :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 My guess is that it will be delayed a little, but we are all doing our best. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony10000 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Well, if a delay is inevitable, I hope Oak Tree would at least consider expanding the beta group or even doing an open beta so that more folks have a chance to bang on it a bit and discover bugs, resulting in a better final release, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony10000 Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 As Logos 6 has launched, it would be nice to get a complete list of new features of Accordance 11 instead of incremental feature reveals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonathanHuber Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I'm sure there will be a complete feature list when the program is released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony10000 Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) I understand...I just think it would be a good move for Oak Tree to "let the cat out of the bag" since dollars are now being spent. There may be some people who might consider making the jump over to Accordance rather than upgrading their package to L6.

Joe Weaks Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Accordance 11 will be one more louder than most blokes, you know, who will be playing with Accordance 10. Edited October 28, 2014 by Joe Weaks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Francis Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 As Logos 6 has launched, it would be nice to get a complete list of new features of Accordance 11 instead of incremental feature reveals. Hopefully Accordance's launch will go smoother their website was completely down hard to get any info on it till today. -Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony10000 Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 Probably had something to do with changing things over...in any case, it will be an exciting fall/winter for electronic Bible study! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Francis Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 That it will not too sure if I am upgrading to 6 or not. I almost didn't upgrade Accordance, but I am 100% sure the 11 will be worth it for me, 6 remains to be seen. As one person intimated over there a whole lot of flash they don't want. -Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmedina Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I did upgrade to 6 and loving it. Cant wait for Accordance 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony10000 Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 I just got an iPad two days ago, and due to various software and server problems at Logos, I have not been able to access my library on this device. On the other hand, Accordance loaded without any problems. Makes me want to say Hmmm... Moral of the story: Flashy software means nothing if you can't access your library! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Francis Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 And Accordance lets you put all your personal books on your iPhone/iPad.. you cannot do that yet with them (and no time soon either, although they will sync smaller personal books to other desktop machines you own). As nice as somethings there are the speed of their mobile app compared to Accordance is night and day. -Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Miller Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I was a Logos user before coming to Accordance and made the switch because of all the development problems and broken promises from Logos. I still use it because of the great prices on their community offerings that I can add to my library for research purposes but for Bible study Accordance is my choice. When I found out about logos 6 I was surprised that they would release a new verison again without ever completing the last one. On top of that their costs to upgrade are just ridiculous, for $90 you get basically nothing in new datasets/features and bunch of worthless resources that no one really needs or can use for serious study. The next jump takes you into hundreds of dollars to move from L5 to L6. Not going to happen. So, I'm with the rest of these guys and gals, can't wait to see what Accordance 11 can do for my $49 upgrade price. Thanks Oak Tree/Accordance staff and developers. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
