Which would be the best to purchase... (Moderated by Sharon1952, EleanorSews)

Would it be better to buy the Designer Version 5 Software or upgrade to Designer Plus? The Designer Plus is much more expensive and I am wondering if there is anyone who has had any experience with either of these programs.

LOL I just bought the software today, I don;t have it yet I will next week but I was told the Designer plus was the best. The best thing is if you buy it before monday and put it on a Bernina card you get one year 0% interest. Mine was over 1800

If you're buying Designer, it would be a very old version and 'used' software that works with an older version of .ART, even if it is a versoin 5.
My dealer only sells the version 5 of Editor Plus and Designer Plus.

The full version 5 Plus is over $2000 she gave me 19% off it which made it right around $1600 and with tax it came to a little over $1800. But you don't need it to use the 730. Only if you are going to do anything Digitized or want to change the stitches at all.
