Great plugin with great features

I have used the Simple-Press plugin as an essential part of my business for about 9 years now. During this entire time it has been free. Okay, I paid a few dollars for extra support once in a while, and I purchased a theme and a few plugins over the years. No big deal.
Now with the latest upgrade I still have everything I had before the upgrade. There is nothing I have to buy extra, and my entire forum setup is still free, unless I want additional features or personalized support.
I don’t understand what a previous commenter has been complaining about. Supposedly it’s now a ‘commercial product’. The basic plugin is still free, and obviously the people who made the plugin have to make money somewhere, otherwise why would they do all this work.
I have always been very happy with Simple-Press, and still am. Version 6 is even better now, and I like the fact that it is now on www.ads-software.com (which it was not before).
The support people have always been very knowledgeable and helpful, and I would definitely recommend this plugin for anyone who needs a good and reliable forum.
