When I trialed Finale v26 I realised I needed to start looking for something else to use. Keep in mind I had been using Finale since back when it was owned by Coda Music, circa 2000. With regards to Finale: I looked at (trialed) the various upgrades that had come along since Finale 2012 and just never seen a good reason to upgrade. Of course I had to download the newer Dorico software, but so what, I now have Dorico-3 pro! Point is, at no point did the cross-grade installer ask me what software I had previously been using! Maybe it found Finale on my PC and satisfied itself without me knowing?
#COMPARE FINALE AND FINALE PRINTMUSIC UPGRADE#
I expressed concern to the salesperson that I might be in process of effectively cross grading to Dorico-1, which indeed turned out to be the case, except while installing the licence up popped a message saying that I qualified for a free upgrade to Dorico-3. I bought a retail cross-grade package that simply said “Dorico” on the box.
I recently cross-graded from Finale 2012 to Dorico Pro. Financially it would be cheaper to go to Finale v26 at half the upgrade price, but the support seems better for Dorico. I need some help in deciding which one to go for, has anyone transferred from Finale to Dorico and for what reason. I’m thinking of upgrading to either Finale v26 or Dorico Pro 3, at the moment Dorico Elements doesn’t have text options I need to make notes on the score. I currently have Dorico Elements 3 and Finale Printmusic 2014 mainly for creating Lead Sheets and Guitar Tablature, not full orchestral scores.
