Which license type is right for me - subscription vs. one-time?

With Golden Software's new subscription licensing options of Surfer and Grapher, it can be difficult to decide which license type might be right for you. The table below highlights some of the benefits to each licensing type to help you decide what is best for your workflows. 

Subscription Licensing might be right for you if...

• You like to have the freedom to start and stop your subscription based on your software use. 
• You prefer to pay for exactly how often you use the software.
• You always want access to the current version, updates, our Beta program, and priority technical support via email, phone, or LiveChat.

• Manage your software subscription for Surfer or Grapher
• Renew software maintenance or software subscription

One-time Fee licensing might be right for you if...

• You prefer a one-time purchase for a single software version over an ongoing subscription for the latest updates.
