Can't vouch for OMAR, but have also decided to drop support, or at least attempting to. How did CA react to your request to not pay them for the privilege of using 'their' software?

This is the case with two of our products: ASK-OMAR ver. 9.0.19 and Collier-Jackson payroll ver. 2.09.M33. I am curious as to if anyone out there has updated their OS to 5.0 and are using either of the 2 products, and more so the version levels that we currently have. I personally know that CJ payroll will run at the M45 level, and the ASK people feel that OMAR 'should" be fine. That is not much comfort when things fall apart on a Monday morning. If anybody out there could shed some light on this I would appreciate your input.
