The latest version is from 2016. We are in 2019. That's a long time. Do they provide any updates?

Thanks

SAP don't issue new full releases of products very often at all, nowhere near as often as Sybase used. Instead, they issue regular service packs with intermediate patches. You don't need to install the original version of PowerDesigner 16.6 and then apply all updates, you just install the latest service pack - the latest is Service Pack 7 which I think is less than a month old. If you want to see the changes made in this service pack, follow this link -

Thanks! What mislead me was the release date on the zip file. But when I clicked on the details it showed: Changed On:12.04.2019.

I think they should display the exact version including the service pack number in the list of downloads so there is no confusion and they should include an update date.

Perhaps the download page for patches etc. has changed since last May? It does tell me the service pack number and patch level, plus the release date. There was a patch to SP10 issued 2 days ago, for example:
