The latest sisNET releases come with sisNET, sisFLOW and sisVIEW and sisIMS. If you search for "sisNET", "sisFLOW" or "sisVIEW" on Software Downloads, you will see the 2023, 2024, 2025 etc. versions.
Outdated sisNET product names shown outdated versions
If you search on outdated sisNET product names like "sisNET Multi" or "sisNET Electric", you will only see outdated versions. This is because OpenUtilities sisNET has a new ProductID (3172), introduced since CE Update 5. As a result, entering the names of the old sisNET products (sisNET Multi, Electric, Gas, Heat, Water or Wastewater) in Software Downloads does not lead to the latest release, but to Update 5, the last release that still offered the old ProductIDs and old product names.
If you enter one of the values "sisNET", "sisFLOW", or "sisVIEW" in the search field, you will be redirected to the latest CE version of these products. Note that one of the old product names may still be stored in the cache of your search page on Software Downloads. We recommend checking to see if this can still be cleaned up.
If you search for sisIMS, you will only see older versions, (up to Update 7 of March 2023). No worries, the sisIMS product is included in the download of the sisNET product since version 2023.
Note: Clicking the Clear button (shown in blue) will remove the settings in the Generation, Version, Language, Architecture, Deliverable Type, and Subscription Entitlement fields and display all available versions. Note that old sisNET versions may be archived by the sisNET team and are then no longer available under Software Downloads.
