Not everyone in your firm will get updates at the same time
We want to make sure that updates go off without a hitch so updates will "trickle in" gradually to the members of your firm. This means that it is likely that for a period of time, different people in your firm will be running different versions. This is good because it protects your firm in case there is an issue with an update.
Automatically Installing Updates
Latest Automatic Update
The most recent auto-update of Faster Suite updated users to version: 21.03.10
When a new version of Faster Suite is released, Faster Suite will automatically update in the background. Once the upgrade is complete, Faster Suite will perform a full data sync with Clio which will cause Faster Suite to temporarily only show some of your data while it pulls in the most recent data from Clio.
Manually Installing Updates
Manual Download
The Free Download button found on our website, www.fasterlaw.com, will always download the most recent version of Faster Suite
If the Faster Suite application directed you to this web page then that means a brand new update to Faster Suite has been released but your computer hasn't updated yet. Normally computers will automatically upgrade to the latest version within 24 hours of it being released so if you've seen this message for longer, then it means your PC might be having problems downloading and installing the update (usually this is because of over-zealous antivirus software).
Manually installing the update is easy though! Here's all you have to do:
1. Exit Faster Suite
2. Download the latest version from our website
Clicking the Free Download button will download the most recent version.
3. Run the file that you downloaded.
4. Faster Suite will automatically upgrade itself to the latest version.
