New version of RacerMate software

Tomster

I have a computrainer with the old Racer Mate software and was wondering if any of the peeps in En have experience with the new version of the software that came out this summer? I've heard mixed reviews so I would like to get feedback from anyone before I shell out the dollars for the upgrade.

Thanks

I was on the beta team so I've had the software for a long time. I got it for free and I still don't use it. They mailed me the GA version and I've yet to load it on my trainer box. I started using Trainerroad a while ago and the integration and ease of getting to your workouts was much better for me then the CT software.
Don't get me wrong the new version is much better then the old but not at the price they are charging IMHO. I stopped using the videos a long time ago and chasing the chrome man around in the old and new version is just not that different.
Here is a quick link with some more background details: http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/02/racermate-computrainer-resolves.html
You can also search on slowtwitch, there was a pretty detailed discussion there about the new software where the lead developer from racermate also chimed in.

TrainerRoad is awesome. Haven't touched CT software in a long time!
