2022.2 vs all other versions

So I am a little confused and have tried the search, Facebook and other things and not finding much help. This is not a rant but a call for help.

I started PCDMIS running 2014. I moved to 2019. I have worked with 2020.1 and 2021.1( my favorite!!!) and now 2022.2. I have also worked with Clypiso and Mcosmos and verisurf. I have never had more issues with programs crashing, PCD crashing, crashing probes on proven programs and during calibration, the lack of faith in the accuracy of the measurement as I have in 2022.2 I have no doubt some of that is due to alignment issues(old programer have no idea what he was doing due to lack of training). But programs that we have ran for years on 2020 or 2021 now do not run at all in 2022.2. I can write programs in 2022.2 and they run great one day the next they crash or have errors. I do use GETOL not much legacy. However, ALL of my drawings and cads are to 2009, not 2018 standard. So maybe I should be using legacy. I have used the Hexagon tech line more in the last 2 months than I have in my whole 27 year career. So in short not only am I not understanding what going on, management is getting very upset. So can anyone help me understand what I am missing or doing wrong?? Do I have a mechanical issue, a program issue, a calibration issue, 2022.2 issue, or a combination issue?

  • Seems like every version introduces as many, if not more new bugs than fixes.
  • Very true. We originally got 2021.1 but ditched it in favor of 2020R2. Much better although still buggier than our 2016 we have on the older machine. If Hexagon can't figure out what they are doing people will look for alternatives. Management at my place wasn't happy (to put it nicely) either when I spent more time dealing with the support than running the machine. I would rather have less capable system but rock solid one than buggy "state of the art" system. Same goes to Windows. I still have W7 professional at my laptop & after hearing stories on W10 no thanks I will stick to W7.
