Supervisor Version 9 brings a long-deserved and significant technology upgrade to the base platform that will allow us to continue to support and develop Supervisor well into the future. While there are some changes to the overall look, Version 9 remains an evolution of the previous version with no reduced functionality or changes to the core workflow. Ultimately, while we have modernised Supervisor, it is not a new product and therefore is accessible by anyone with a current active maintained license, subscription or rental.

Aside from the modernised user interface, you can enjoy the convenience of the new ribbon menu and utilise greater customisation new dockable windows, alongside a number of small quality of life changes. We are looking forward to your feedback which can now be provided directly from within Supervisor itself with the new ‘Send Feedback’ form under the Help menu. Through this form, you can optionally provide us with contact details so that we can discuss your feedback and ideas with you directly.
Upgrading a Version 8 project
Upgrading your Supervisor projects from version 8 to version 9 is a straightforward process. Launch the Supervisor 9 application and select the ‘Upgrade V8 Project’ option from the Open menu. Select the version 8 project you wish to upgrade, and the application will create a duplicate of this project in version 9 format.
Please be patient as the creation process may take some time. Once the new project is created, it will need to be updated for the results to be regenerated. It’s important to note that once a project is upgraded to version 9, it cannot be reverted back to version 8. Make sure you are ready to upgrade before proceeding.
