Hopefully one of these beta versions will fix the price bug.
I find it hard to believe that OMNI charged so much not only for this upgrade, but also for programs such as Omni Plan and Omni Focus. I own both of these as well, and prefer Merlin 2 and Thinking Rock 2. I bought these Omni programs in part to show my support for the company, and this was prior to the Omni Graffle pricing fiasco. To me these Omni programs are not a good value given their prices and features, and competing products have been a better choice for me.
I seldom use OmniWeb, which I think was the first Omni product I purchased many years ago, and use FireFox or Safari these days. But at one point OmniWeb was my favorite browser. And I didn't mind paying for it. It was worth it.
I used to love Omni as a company, and the support ninjas are amazing 99.9% of the time. But I'll keep on using OmniGraffle 4 until it no longer works for my needs and/or I find a replacement.
I'm certainly not upgrading my Omni software if things continue this way.
Just my feedback.

Unbelievable ripoff - Version: 5.0, 4/22/2008 09:53AM PST

This is an unbelievable ripoff from a greedy company. Not only will I not purchase this, I am replacing my other Omni applications.
Very short sighted pricing from a company with, apparently, short term goals.

Personally, upgrading to v5 was a no-brainer, as Omnigraffle Pro is one of my most used apps, and has been for years (I've been using it pretty much since the beginning).
I use it almost daily for a massive range of work projects: network diagrams, flow charts, organisational charts, planning of web sites, signs for our noticeboard (it's quick than using InDesign for small internal projects), I even used it to produce a very complex map recently.
It's one of those software tools that I really don't know how anyone can manage without - and is, for me, one of the real Mac 'Killer applications'
I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Omnigraffle gets my vote for being the best-designed application on the platform.
