We are delighted to announce that the latest version of EnSign (version 6) is now available. Please read on to find out; what changes have been made, what benefits there are to users, how to upgrade and information on pricing.

Discover What’s New in Version 6:

Though the familiar and reliable user interface of v5.14 remains intact, we’ve engineered numerous enhancements beneath the surface:

• Licensing: Our refined licensing model now supports seamless licence transfers, freeing up new PC activations as soon as a licence is deactivated on another device.
• Language Support: Broadened multi-language support ensures accessibility for a diverse range of users.
• Sample Labels: We’ve added a range of sample labels.
• Data Management: The new version is now compatible with macro-enabled Excel spreadsheets (.xlsm files) and features enhanced advanced database filtering.
• Barcodes: Enhancements to add-ons and human-readable formats for EAN and UPC barcodes.
• Printing: A convenient, print-only version icon now installs directly on the desktop.

Why Upgrade to Version 6?

Benefits of transitioning to Version 6 include:

• Reliability: Stable and improved labelling software with EnSign v6
• Continued support: upgrading ensures that your labelling processes continue to be fully supported (support for earlier versions of EnSign ended on 31/12/2023)
• Licensing Efficiency: The improved licensing model reduces license-related support needs.
• System Compatibility: EnSign v6 remains fully compatible with Windows 10, 11, and future Windows OS releases.
