Hi all,
We are pleased to announce version 6.7.4’s GA release. Below are the Features and Bug Fixes. Please note, in order to take advantage of version 6.7.4’s sharpened UI, with enhanced graphics and updated color scheme, this release requires (and will prompt for during install) an update to .NET framework. You can read more and download the .NET 4 update here: http://get.x1.com/dotnet.
Most importantly, we want to thank our 6.7.4 beta users. We sincerely appreciate your thoughtful feedback and dedication to our product!

X1 Supported Platforms Guide
X1 goes out of its way to explicitly test our products with a number of third-party products. Our goal is to test and validate that our products work with those products our customers and partners use most frequently. Just because a particular version of the third-party software is not listed on the supported platforms guide does not mean that the product will not work with X1, just that we do not explicitly test that version of the application.
