A: The website is online as is the license server. We were moving web hosts so there was some downtime and we ran into a bug during the move that was resolved. We are still looking into if any other bugs have popped up from the move and fixing them as we find them.

This is for customers that want to use excel sheets to generate their own searches.
Q: Website down?
