Considering that these features are 'considered', I don't expect any of these Prime releases will sufficiently outperform (real) MathCad; so I'll stick with (real) MathCad 11, the one that predates Prime 11 by 20 years, if not more, because I don't expect that Prime 11 gets released before 2023...

    I just keep thinking about what would have happened if PTC had spent their effort continuing on mathcad 16 instead of going towards Prime, which was a useless effort ... What a bad decision from some managers at PTC !

      The idea of giving the outdated Mathcad a new, more up-to-date code base was right and necessary. Just how PTC then implemented this idea is a disaster and ultimately killed Mathcad as we knew and loved it. Admittedly - sometimes a love-hate relationship, too, but you often appreciate things most when you've lost them.

      RIP Mathcad

        Well, what to do then?
        We can complain as much as we want, but not much will change 🤔.
        The PTC will most likely implement their development plans, it doesn't really matter what our wish is.

        The solution is to give up and start with other math software? Or?

        Probably some have been using Mathcad for many years...and are related to this software.

        Since our official public product calendar doesn't have a date for the next version of Mathcad, there's nothing to believe or disbelieve right now.

        PTC has never met a release date yet.  Why should this be any different?

        Ok - We got enough.

        We went to Maple.  It has it's own diffculties but I don't feel like being taken for a ride by them...
        Get lucky with PTC..

        Standard Maple or Flow?

        Both, if you buy flow, you get standard too. 
        Flow is good for quick scribbles, if you want to go deeper, you need the standard-application. 
        The service is good, I asked some stupid questions and got good answers. 

        regards,

        One man was very sorry for his dog and cut off its tail not once, but gradually, in pieces.
        And another person began to gradually sew these pieces back to the dog. The name of this dog is Mathcad Prime.

        What we want:

         

        german-shorthair-pointer-750x411

         

        Multi-Role, Multi-Environment, Adaptable, Intelligent.

         

        (Great dogs, BTW)

         

        I hope that Road Map successfully leads to a German Shorthaired Pointer of a product (and speeds up getting there).

          I admire your unbroken optimism, but I am already wondering what it is based on.
