Schedules are integrated with call sheets, production reports, and the crew list to eliminate redundant typing. New features, like TimeOut (which lets you schedule days by hours, in addition to page count) and Cast Blackout (the ability to blackout days on the schedule that cast are unavailable) will continue to be rolled out as we aggressively improve the software on a weekly (not yearly) basis.

Discount: We will offer our program for $149, which is $50 off the current introductory price of $199 and $100 less than the regular price of $249.
