Then, they announced that it will only be offered as a subscription. If I remember correctly when Spaceclaim (a companion to Rhino) was first launched as an innovative CAD system, people got excited to buy it, and I was one of them. Maybe later this year I’ll give it a whirl. I’m (to slightly contradict what I just said above) going to do a trial with Enscape, partially due to the fact that I just need to try to do something quick (and it has a monthly option…). It also seems to have relatively low system requirements. Light Tracer is the cheapest rendering app I’ve seen so far. The theory was that subscription fees would fund further development, but in reality it seems that teams get lazy and have little incentive to improve their products (looking at you Autodesk!!).
KEYSHOT LICENSE COST SOFTWARE
Ironically, it’s the complete opposite of what subscription-based vendors claim: Perpetual licensed software tends to develop faster, and even has better support, than most every subscription based product I’ve used. I’ve definitely noticed a correlation between subscriptions and stagnating software development. If the vendor quotes a monthly price and only actually offers yearly (to make the cost look smaller), that’s instantaneous game over for me. That way I can ditch the software if it doesn’t work without having to pay for an entire year. I will subscribe, but only if I can pay monthly and the monthly cost isn’t a total rip-off. I don’t want to sound redundant, but I ONLY financially support companies that offer perpetual licenses
