Hi Odarchuk,
We are providing beta access in patches (and I think we have issued for 1 or 2 batches so far). Will check with the team to include you in the next batch.
We are still working on the new UI and its implementation will be taken up after 9.0 release.
Bla4free : SDP 9.0 can be tried on line at : http://alpha.servicedeskplus.com/ . This should be 2 - 3 weeks prior build (will update it with newer build).
regards,
Uma..
SDP team.
