Comparison with Old generation SDK

New SDK has the following advantages over the previous version:

• SDK is fully in sync with the API, all missing methods are added
• Classes, methods and properties have comments and are IDE-friendly
• Better security
• Usage of Request/Response classes to represent long lists of parameters. This allows for cleaner code and easier backwards-compatibility going forward

New SDK is not backwards compatible with previous generation because of the last item. It should be straightforward to convert your code to using Request/Response objects, if you need any help on migration please ask at Free Support Forums.
