Upgrading Wingate From 5.2.3 To 6.0

Postby ray.abadie » Apr 22 05 4:07 am

I am currently running 5.2.3 and I would like to upgrade to 6.0. My question is will my 6.0 installation retain all of my 5.2.3 setup configurations such as users, IP ban list, policies, etc.

Yes it will. It will also save a copy of the WinGate registry for you.

Should be no problem.

Thanks Larry for your reply.

I don't see any upgrade prices posted anywhere on the Wingate site. I have a 250 5.2.3 user prof license. I also have the Kaspersky plug-in. Anyone know what the upgrade price would be. Qbic starting shipping 6.0 less than a month after i purchased.

Go here

https://commerce.qbik.com/purchase.php

and select Upgrade an existing license in the box at the bottom.

Enter your current license in the pop up and it will tell you the options and cost.

One other thought - unless you need any of the new features you do not need to upgrade. Qbik has always had a policy of allowing the re-use of old version license keys with the new version software. (So you get the fixes, just not the new features).
