I just had to install Controller Assistant v3.0.7, which I could only get from an employee because the website shows v3.0.5 as the newest. Why did I need it? Because Controller Assistant v15.0.5 that I have installed and has the same name, icon, and looks the same is different and older and wouldn't work (neither would v3.0.5).
I'm Running Logic Builder V4.2 which is SoMachine Motion and launched with Central Motion which are not the same as SoMachine and Central sans "Motion". This is now replaced with EcoStruxure Machine Expert v1.2; or is it EcoStructure, they can't seem to decide, the name swaps between those two every other document and webpage. It merges SoMachine and SoMachine Motion (a step in the right direction), but you can't leave SoSafe installed, which is the safety part of SoMachine meaning it is impossible to support old programs without a virtual machine. There was also an EcoStruxture Machine Expert Motion for a while.
In a few years, I expect they'll release LuxErexion Gooroux version negative 6 and the variants LuxErexion Gooroux Remedial, IIoT Enterprise Paradigm, and Stationary. You have to uninstall Chrome to use their safety product, which will be named ?

Hi @chase88!
Right spot on! I mean, what a mess, it's impossible to keep up with the names, the version number changes. I mean I hardly remember the names of the different softwares because all of them are almost identical. Please, this issue is big, this alienate people from embracing the platform.
SoMachine was a good move, but the Ecostruxure path.. is nonesense to me, sorry.
