Subscription licenses are loaded with advantages!
But you can still buy perpetual licenses. The choice is yours!
Get a subsciption license of our new electrical CAD software ELECTRIX and the benefit is yours. From a financial point of view subscription licenses are an obvious choice: for the first seven (!) years the cumulated cost of subscription is lower than that of a perpetual license with maintenance. And subscription requires a lower initial invest than a perpetual license. So money that you would spend to buy a perpetual license becomes available for other purposes.
Buy a license
Subscription maximises profit Perpetual licenses are capital goods and their depreciation period lasts several years. So if you are spending money today to buy a perpetual license, only a part of the sum is reducing your tax this year. Subscription licenses on the other hand are expenses that can be deducted 100% in the current year, therefore minimising your taxable income. We are happy to share a exemplary calculation with you. Subscription licenses include software updates and upgrades. The maintenance of a perpetual license only includes software updates. And if you should ever need an additional temporary license, it is included for 4 weeks in your subscription. Also part of your subscription is a yearly online training because we want to make sure you know the latest tips & tricks in electrical engineering.

What is the additional temporary license?
If the workload in your project is huge and you would require a second license to speed things up, you can easily activate it: your WSCAD subscription includes a secondary license that you can use once a year for up to 4 weeks. It is free of charge. The license type is the same as your subscription license. After 4 weeks the secondary license expires. All data created with it can be used with your subscription license.
