Ensure access to new features and support while controlling the future cost of your solution
Our subscription program allows customers to extend the right to upgrades and technical support beyond the initial year of purchase. The subscription scheme is applicable to all our products.
Why should I subscribe?

You always have the latest version of the product. |
| • |

For the duration of the subscription term, free technical support is available (please check our support webpage for business hours; toll charges may apply for phone support). |
How does subscription work?

Anytime during the first twelve months you can purchase subscription for 1, 2 or 3 more years. |

If you do not subscribe you can use the current version of the product but you lose the free updates, upgrades and support. |
