Reporter Professional Plus is our class defining energy logger data analysis and tariff comparison software and replaces our older products, such as "Reporter Pro" and "Hawk Commander". Celebrating nearly 30 years of reducing waste and saving money, with the first "Hawk Reporter" DOS edition released in 1987. This eventually became "Reporter Pro" (for Windows) and we have now standardised on the "Plus" edition, which supports more loggers and includes many additional features.
Reporter Professional Plus is now compatible with 32 & 64 bit editions of Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10.
The user interface has been given a major update and now has a fresh new look. A Help feature has been added to all major menus.
For the first time a fully context sensitive, hyper-linked, help file is included. This is also available, in full, online.
