Want the Push to Client to work for version releases

Nationwide needs a mechanism to push RDz product updates out to clients. We used push to client to install RDz v8.5 when clients were running v8.0.3.2 and this worked great. We thought it would work as well when we went to v9, but were just notified with the referenced PMR that it is only for upgrades within a major release (ex., 9.0 to 9.0.1 or 9.1), not for (ex., v8.5 to v9.1). We would like this to work between major releases.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us; However, your request for enhancement is not currently aligned with our product strategy and vision and we have no plans to address your request in the near future. Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
