   Hey, i have an idea.  It's not really a wish, but a bit of marketing.:)What You think for the option to change a little the way You present the versions of CIS?What You think about something like:CIS 2010,CIS 4-10 or Comodo Internet Security 2010 instead of CIS 4 or CIS 4.xxx.xxxx.xxx?
Or...propose something different.

All this "NIS 2010, KIS 2010 in the year of 2009 !" is stupid. COMODO should keep the current scheme

I like that name because it lets people know it's the newest version. People who don't know Comodo would not know that from CIS 4 or any other version number. Comodo Internet Security 2010 would be the best name in my opinion to attract new users.

Exactly ) The trick is in the attractive name for the new users.If CIS 4 really gonna be one great and strong product, it should have a big and strong name.

At first glance, I wasn't keen on using CIS 2010 as companies (i.e Norton, McAfee, Kaspersky) usually use this as a means of promoting their latest product(s) year in, year out. But (as mentioned) it does show the user (experienced or new) that this is the latest version of software. Maybe even use build info based on date. I.e COMODO Internet Security 2010 (Build: 09.05). I like the idea .

The new version (final) will appear in the beginning of 2010, so i don't see a conflict.It's not like KIS 2010 in the beginning of 2009.

It may be a libt of trivia but in Japan often the number 4 is skipped along with some other numbers.

Though considering the features for the upcoming CIS version and the time of release it would make sense to skip to 2011

Indeed most competitors provide their future builds for many months whereas the ETA of CIS IV is 2 months before 2010 whereas by now  in 2010 people are persuaded to expect 2011.

The way I would see this situation would be that, security providers like Kaspersky, only attach the year at the end of them - to make customers think that they will have to buy the new version when it comes out, in order to stay secure. But, it just depends on how the company can keep themselves organized, development-wise.

Personaly im ok with just CIS v4!

I dont like CIS 2010, as there maybe more then 1 release for CIS in 2010

That doesn't matter since new people getting the download will always get the latest version. The point is that those new people who are looking for a security suite will recognize Comodo Internet Security 2010 as being new far more than if they just see Comodo Internet Security 4 or even worse, just CIS 4.

Let me ask you something...is price better than quality?

Or better yet...is "newness" better than quality?

Take Firefox 3.5 for example...people know 3.5 is newest, but some people think Firefox 3 is better than 3.5 because Firefox 3 has better quality at the moment - and still being supported.

Actually...a better example would be Avira Antivir 8.2 vs 9. Many were warned not to upgrade right away to version 9 because it had several issues. Avira upped their compatibility, and upped the support dates so customers can stay at 8.2 and be okay until the support date ended, then upgrade to 9.

So, it does not matter what date is attached to the end, quality is better than newness.

That's all true but, irrelevant to this discussion. The point of the thread,as I see it, is what name would give CIS the greatest recognition and acceptance by the general public.
