Thanks for being an Athena user

As you know, Athena has been a workhorse for a decade now, but UAD has pushed it past its limits, and now Microsoft has announced they’re ending support for Athena’s mapping engine – Microsoft MapPoint.  So to complete reports with maps, you’ll have to use our excellent Athena Transition Assistant, or upgrade to WinTOTAL Aurora or TOTAL 2011. 

Complete reports using the Athena Transition Assistant:

1. Click here to learn all about using the Athena Transition Assistant.  You'll be able to start your forms in Athena, then finish and deliver your reports in TOTAL as you transition to the new software. 
    
2. Install TOTAL 2011 for FREE on your machine, if you haven't already.  You can find it in My Downloads at the bottom left of My Account.  TOTAL 2011 does not overwrite Athena, so you're not altering any of your current formfilling abilities by installing it.  Click here for step-by-step instructions.  
    
3. Once TOTAL 2011 is installed, you'll need to run the Athena Transition Assistant.  Click here for the instructions.
    

Or, upgrade full-time WinTOTAL Aurora or TOTAL 2011:  Which is right for you?

The Athena Transition Assistant is a big help for reducing the stress of having to learn UAD and new software at the same time.  Once you've gotten your feet wet, you'll be ready to permanently use either our TOTAL 2011 or Aurora software.  When the time is right, the information below can help you choose which is right for you. 

Neither TOTAL nor Aurora are "better" than the other.  They're different products for different people, so it really depends on your daily workflow.
