Tournament Director for Windows has been retired. It has been replaced by UTU Swiss.
Tournament Director for Windows was initially developed in the late 1990's and came into existence shortly after Windows XP using the development tools available at the time. However, technology has moved on apace. Microsoft has recently ceased support for Windows XP and many of the associated development tools. Tournament Director for Windows has reached the end of its development life cycle and so UTU Swiss has been developed.
UTU Swiss has been developed using the latest Microsoft tools and developed for the latest Windows environments (Windows 7 and Windows 8). UTU Swiss is an evolution of Tournament Director for Windows, but the technology used for its development is a complete revolution, which will allow UTU Swiss to continue to evolve and exploit the latest technologies.
