As we are fast approaching that time of year again, I am hoping that this year Solidworks will do what they used to do and allow all beta testers to use the full Premium package for the beta process. Last year the beta was restricted to the level of the license you hold, so for example I was on Professional, so I couldn't use any of the Premium tools. This was different to all previous years.

Most of us on beta are not going to be submitting hundreds of bug reports like certain others (we all know who!), and so there is no actual benefit to being on the beta as we have zero chance of winning any prizes. But at the very least it would be good if SolidWorks would recognise our willingness to participate by at least letting us use the full package for the beta period.

How about it?
