What licensing and pricing model do you offer for EASE 5?
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 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.
- 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 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 license can be renewed any time before the license term expires or up to 30 days after the license term has expired. After the period of 30 days an Initial Fee must be paid to activate the license again. The license expiration will be displayed in the software for the last 30 days of the license term and you will also receive reminder emails.
