They haven't proven anything other than you can't trust them! trying to sound great now for unblocking devices that they should never have banned in the first place! you know what they say about self praise...

it will depend on what licences you wish to buy , i find fiat , PSA , Vauxhall and Mitsubishi excellent , renault, nissan and hyundai/kia all good , vag is still excellent just expensive compared to alternative options , bmw ok if careful and mercedes same . so really depends what coverage you need.
They don't treat customer serious rapid and i am almost sure that you can't proof that it isn't true. They never make deep test, always customer is beta tester. I don't use them since years but from latest scams Delphi PSA bsi killed units, Hyundai/Kia is ripped Londsor. It need online too which is danger beside client side. When you say on any big forum that something not work you are biggest problem not no working function.
i use abrites every day , yes its let me down , but its also made me a very good living , its just one of many tools i have , and despite the frustrations id rather have it than not . they all use us as beta testers , IEA and recently advanced diagnostics with smart pro , both released non fit for purpose machines full of bugs and used their paying customers to beta test and generate log files to fix issues , im not saying that this is right but it is normal with many manufacturers , theres no trade like this one where you can get away with this .
id be lying if i said abrites was perfect , but id also be lying if i said it was a poor investment , for me its paid back and earnt well , especially in past when it lead the field by a long way , id agree its not got the advantages it once had , but in the time ive had it it has been a solid investment .
there customer service has never been the best , though im told this can depend on distributor as some are better im told than others , they do invent ways to squeeze more out of you with licence jiggles which is not good , but on whole its served me well. whether id buy it today for the 1st time then im not sure , as it doesnt now offer the advantages it once did , but is still a useful machine .
i prefer truecode on what it covers , i prefer g-scan on what it covers , i prefer AD on some and zed on others , all have there place but as i have abrites i use it and i would miss it.

My problem with them is that Abritus is second on my list direct after Cryptoworks but Cryptoworks was few time cheaper. Locksmith industry no last to long, all cars manufacture will introduce phones as keys or smartwatches. Internet connectivity can blacklist keys not added by dealer in few seconds, additionally any access to unit is slowly nearly impossible(mcu locked, unique aes keys stored outside main memory(even you get one it gives you nothing at second unit)). In my opinion it is no worth to put 10k+ for device where developer don't care at all for end user and additional most of functions are overpriced.

in many ways i agree , this wasnt always the case , it had its hay day and those that made it pay back then did far better than those buying today i suspect .
sadly the attitude of manufacturers to there customers is the same throughout this area , none care to much about the end user , its all about the money and nothing else , there a a few exceptions , truecode being one that does give great value and looks after there customers well.
for some its paid well , for some its been a disaster , mines well into profit so for me its been a succesful investment , if i turned the clocks back id buy again without hesitation , but as i say if new and buying again today then thats another thing entirely.

Ep001 is very good , If it continues in update , it is possible to compete with large companies.
