Hi Tayssir,

There are several differences. 

* The most important one is that RobotStudio 4.x only supports S4 robots whereas RobotStudio 5.x supports IRC5 robots.

* Another difference is that RS 4.0 is a pure offline tool, whereas RS 5.x is both and offline and and online tool, ie. you can connect to real controllers on the shop floor.

* The third difference is the business model. RS 4.0 is based on perpetual licenses, where RS 5.x uses an annual subscription model, where you pay a few each year to renew your license.

* RS 4.0 is not being developed or maintained anymore but sold 'as is'. RS 5.x is constantly being developed with quality enhancements and new features released continuously.

Those are the obvious ones.
