I 
really don't have an answer for you.  I can only make an assumption that 
nobody knows much about the new AmiBroker distribution, but that is no 
excuse.   As to why my emails (may) get more attention, my only guess 
is that it is either because I've been a subscriber since they started or the 
fact that I have contributed a lot of assistance with beta testing and data 
corrections over the years.  Again, not a good reason for your emails to be 
neglected.

I can 
tell you that I emailed their "regular" support people about a problem with the 
install of 2.7.8 and received an absolutely pathetic, incorrect 
response.

  [amibroker] CSI vs QP: the good, the bad, the ugly
  Chuck,
   
  I might also add that I am perplexed at how CSI feels compelled to 
  respond to your e-mails, yet decides to cast mine aside.  Are they not 
  designed for the common investor/trader?  Are their expectations that I 
  solve my own tech problems??
   
  Even when I raise an issue with QP, as I did related to their Funds data, 
  they at least had the professional courtesy to respond to my 
  complaint."Gary A. Serkhoshian"

    Chuck,
     
    My point is simply CSI tech support does not respond to my e-mails 
    or return my phone calls.  No matter what the issue, big or 
    little, my expectation is a 24 hour response time from tech support.  
    CSI has met that less than 25% of the time.  Perhaps Tomasz ought to 
    fly out to Florida to give them a class. : )
     
    BTW, today on my fifth call in as many maket days coupled with about 3 
    e-mails, I finally got an answer to a very direct question.  
    Copying Rudi, Mgt, Superman did nothing to expedite the process.
     
    
    I appreciate you forwarding the e-mail to CSI, but I am skeptical as to 
    what will ultimately result from it.  Listing the specific problem here 
    would simply bore 90% of the members of the board.  I can post it to 
    you privately if you'd like.
     
    Regards,
    Gary

      size=2>I hope you don't mind, but I have forwarded your post to 
      CSI.   I have already heard back that they will take some sort 
      of action, but I don't know what that might be.  I'm sorry to hear 
      that you are having support problems.   On the other hand, what 
      can possibly not be working?   You download data and it exports 
      the data to AB.  Works every time, or am I missing something.  
      I'm not trying to be funny about it, but I don't understand what kind of 
      support you require.   Of course, that doesn't give CSI an 
      excuse for not replying to you.

        [amibroker] CSI vs QP: the good, the bad, the ugly
        Hi all,
         
        Just want to offer my 2 cents on my experiences so far with CSI and 
        QP.
         
        While we all would love to adhere to the high data standards that 
        Chuck espouses and CSI provides, I am finding CSI's tech support to be 
        so unresponsive that asking a basic question about exporting data into 
        AmiBroker requires several attempts on my part due to lack of returned 
        phone calls or returned e-mails from tech support.  Even after 
        alerting management of this issue, nothing has changed.
         
        My experience with QP, on the other hand, has always been positive 
        as their tech support always responds within 24 hours.  Even if 
        they don't know the answer immediately, they'll at least respond to 
        acknowledge my e-mail.
         
        So, for those weighing the pros vs the cons, data nirvana comes at 
        a price of crappy tech support.  Chuck's experience has been 
        totally positive from his posts on this board, but I've seen several 
        others post how they've also been cast aside by an unresponsive tech 
        support.
         
        I've been more than patient with these guys and I'm in it for at 
        least the year.  The least I can do for those not subscribed, but 
        thinking about it, is tell you CAVEAT EMPTOR (buyer beware).
         
        Regards,
        Gary
