When I look at the Diamond package the website says there are 53 features.  I know there are 9 Data Sets, but is there a list of the 53 different features?

Thanks.

    Hi Ronald

    Have a look at the section "Feature Distribution" at the bottom of http://www.logos.com/comparison

    Ron,

    You can find the Comparison chart (albeit it does not display as intended) here:  http://www.logos.com/comparison

    I've provided a screen capture.  The selected base package is L5 Gold:

    I must not have had enough coffee this morning to have missed something so obvious as this.

    Thanks.

    I see what my problem was.  The "Features" are only visible under the "All" tab.  I was looking at "New to You".

    That's useful to know - thanks for posting back

    I must still be missing something.  On the 'features' page there are 7 'packs' and only 6 columns, so I'm not clear which column relates to which pack (especially as the pack icons don't scroll down, on a Mac at least).  

    I have the Scholars' Pack right now, and I'm interested in upgrading primarily for the analytical features shown in the video (time-line, clause search, Bible facts, sermon starter, topic guide, Bible sense lexicon, bibliography, search suggestion), not more books.  I'm trying to figure which pack I would have to upgrade to (ie how much it will cost me) to get all of the features in the video.

    Can anybody help a thick Brit?

    Many thanks

    Martin, 

    I count seven columns in the above screenshot (the Starter pack one has no entries for Bible Word Study and below) - does that help?

    Wait until Logos offers the minimum crossgrade - see http://community.logos.com/forums/t/58259.aspx

    If you want to use L5 and all the features right now, you will need to upgrade to L5 Gold.  That will be a much more costly upgrade for you, though the sale prices for these base packages are outstanding considering what you get and if these are resources you want.

    The question concerning 'features' vs 'resources' is interesting. I would suspect a large segment of the Logos customer population has long 'lost' what 'features' they think they have rights too (but which Logos never actually gave rights to).

    So, in yesterday's embroglio of tangled threads, one constant statement (intended as re-assuring) is that the new packages have nothing to do with the older packages. Which also means the users access to 'features' is going to be interesting, since the feature 'rights' don't tie to the new packages if you don't 'upgrade'.  Eventually Logos needs to replace the older Libronix Account Summary to at least document what each user at least thinks they have rights to.

    You are usually right and very detail oriented and positioning with the future in mind, DMB.  Hmm.  Here I was thinking I could just cross-grade and that would be the best course of action.  Now, I am not so sure.

    The "Features" enumeration came from the marketing team's attempt to explain how the software works differently with different resources. Many Guide sections, for example, are always present, but only work if specific texts are available. This is an attempt to make that clearer -- listing "Bible Word Study: Septuagint Usage" only in packages that include a Septuagint resource that works with that section, for example.
