What licensing and pricing model do you offer for EASE 5 First Edition?
With the new version of EASE we are moving to a new licensing model. The software is provided under a time-limited license for a period of one or two years.
Starting with EASE: If EASE 5-FE is licensed for the first time, an Initial Fee has to be paid:
- One-year license: Initial Fee, 1 Year
- Two-year license: Initial Fee, 2 Years*
Renewal Costs: Upon expiration of the license, the license can be renewed by paying a Renewal Fee:
- One-year license: Renewal Fee, 1 Year
- Two-year license: Renewal Fee, 2 Years**
When renewing the license, the existing feature level can be maintained or any other feature level (JR/Std/Pro) can be chosen, regardless of the feature set of the previous license. Also, the time limit can be different from the previous one.
Upgrading from EASE 4: Customers who already own a license of EASE 4 are entitled to start directly with the reduced Renewal fees for licensing EASE 5-FE.
- One-year license: Renewal Fee, 1 Year
- Two-year license: Renewal Fee, 2 Years**
After the purchase, the existing EASE 4 license remains unchanged and additionally a license for the new EASE 5-FE software is delivered.
This is not so much an upgrade within an existing software, but rather the purchase of a new software at a reduced price.
Please note: The renewal of the license is not automatic. The renewed license must be actively purchased to continue working with the software. The expiration of the time limit will be indicated in the software. We will also inform you by email when your license is about to expire.
