Mark Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Hello dave,The license structure has changes completly, they haven't just bumped up their prices.If you already paid $69.95 for a license, then you will only pay $25 per 6 months - the $149.99 price is an itnitial purchase price.The 'business' license is $300 and includes telephone support and faster ticket responce times.The perpetual license is no longer being offeredTo sunbeam and boobyjoe: thanks for the spam.Have a nice day,P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Yes, for existing customers it's now cheaper (unless you own a perpetual or lifetime license in which case it makes no difference to you), it's just the itnitial purchase that's bumped up a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davebax22 Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 i had a mate view your pricing and he thought it was like $300 a year, the site should make it clear to people on there prices on the main website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony@OWNE Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I agree with davebax22 on this one. Its all about wording: "Optional 6 month renewal for $25" could easily be read as a single 6 month instance, rather than $25 for each 6 months after the initial price, meaning nigh on $175 a year, which would put most non-business users off instantly. To be blunt, they need to change that wording, or they'll lose new customers to their competitors over a simple misunderstanding due to poor wording.

Mark Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 The big $149.99 should be replaced with "$149.99 for the first 6 months, then optional $25 per 6 months thereafter"and similarly "$300 for the first 6 months, then optional $50 per 6 months thereafter"" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I see that on the purchase page in bold already :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
