John Wallace, President of Now Software noted, "In multi-platform settings,
it is essential to permit schedules to be tracked on a number of operating
systems and devices, and Now Software is addressing that need with Now
Up-to-Date for Windows. Many of our customers, who use the Macintosh
version of Now Up-to-Date, also use Windows machines. They need to share
schedules between platforms and have been asking us when they could have
something as good as Now Up-to-Date for their Windows machines. Now they
can, with a release that looks and feels identical to its Mac counterpart."
